DESIGNS BY DREW TAN
ABOUT MEDrew Tan | Fashion DesignerOver the last twenty plus years, I have worked as a designer, as a director of product development and as a creative director in the fashion industry. I’m used to working in a fast-paced environment of trends, expectations and dead-lines. I added lots of knowledge and experience over those years and fine-tuned my ability to coordinate designs with the latest textiles and colors. I pride myself to have developed expert knowledge of denim-dry-and-wet finishing processes. I am typically involved from the beginning of concepts and designs to working directly with appropriate wash-houses and factories to production with extreme attention to detail and fit. I managed to do so with my outstanding computer knowledge of Adobe Illustrator CS2, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Streamline for both Macintosh and PC. I’m used to working with anything from detailed flats to convincing illustrations and powerful presentations, making color selections, creating color boards and fabric stories, determining styles and desired quality. I’m an expert at thoroughly researching data, cost sheets, textile availability, desirable trims, and synthesize the findings to my team. I have successfully demonstrated leadership abilities with my inevitably dynamic communication skills as I’m fluent not only in English and Mandarin but also in Cantonese. Being fully immersed in the international world of fashion production, I have come to predict popular trends of silhouettes, color compositions, and I have become an expert in the commonly applied ‘Gerber tech package’. My virtually life-long fashion world exposure has allowed me to develop superior organizational skills and competently execute diverse duties in a variety of fast-paced environments. This has also greatly benefitted my capabilities as an analyst, a strategic planner and in my problem solving skills.
