Therese P. Eide - professional fashion designer
Welcome to my world! I'm Therese P. Eide, a passionate fashion designer, creative visionary, and mentor. Holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts with distinction from the prestigious California College of the Arts in San Francisco, I embarked on my career in 2006 and have over a decade of experience in designing everything from kidswear to stunning red carpet dresses, I'm thrilled to have this opportunity to share my passion for design and provide you with a glimpse into my creative journey.
Over the years, I have honed my skills and expertise across various realms of fashion design. From creating playful and practical kidswear to designing sophisticated womenswear, casual menswear to stunning red carpet dresses, my versatility knows no bounds. I have many years experience designing sportswear, outerwear, casual wear, and more. With each project, I have relished the opportunity to push boundaries, challenge conventions, and bring my creative visions to life.
One of the aspects that sets me apart is my dedication to the entire design process. From conceptualization to pattern making, from fabric selection to garment construction, I handle every step with meticulous attention to detail. This hands-on approach ensures that each design is made the way I intended it to be made, and fits the way I imagined it.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of creating thousands of garments that have gone into production and sold in over a million pieces. This incredible journey has given me invaluable insights into the industry, an acute understanding of market trends, and a deep connection with fashion-conscious individuals around the globe.
Beyond the realm of design, my passion extends to the exploration of fashion trends, conducting extensive research, and traveling to source inspiration. These experiences have allowed me to stay at the forefront of the ever-evolving fashion landscape and infuse my designs with a contemporary edge.
In addition to my design prowess, I bring a unique blend of marketing and sales expertise to the table. Having immersed myself in the world of SEO, digital design, and artificial intelligence, I understand the importance of leveraging technology to maximize business success. As a managing director, I have honed my skills in running businesses, empathizing with the challenges faced by entrepreneurs, and finding effective solutions to drive growth and profitability.
I am driven by a genuine desire to empower and inspire aspiring fashion designers. Recognizing that the fashion industry can be competitive and challenging, I am developing a program specifically tailored to equip fashion design graduates with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in the real world. Through this program, I aim to bridge the gap between academic training and industry demands, helping emerging talents unlock their true potential.
