Enrique Puente

Since 2019 I work freelance design projects helping clients to meet their purpose working mood-boards with trends, handbag shapes, colours, materials... in order to develop single styles, small collections, or full-range collections.

Clients: Radley London, Carel, Stradivarius, Bershka, Pull & Bear, Bijou Brigitte, Orsay, Accessorize, New Yorker, etc.

Hired as a designer of the handbags and small accessories design teams. Development of new collections, proposals, styles (15-20 per month); color, metal trimmings, and raw material research and development.

Complete CAD drawings, tech sheets, and rectification of the prototypes and samples. Print design for handbags and wallets, made in Illustrator and Photoshop (hand drawing).

Working closely with the purchasing department to achieve the unique product required.

Following the artisanal manufacture of luxury brands such as Hermès or Moynat. I can design and develop my own styles without using any sewing machine or industrial processes.

Every piece is entirely made by hand with premium leather (including exotics such as crocodile, stingray, ostrich...) from Italian and Spanish suppliers.
