Worth flagging upfront - I haven't built hijab/modest-wear pieces specifically, so what I'm sending shows the adjacent skills that transfer directly: structured tailoring, coverage-conscious draping, and technical construction for complex closures.
I also have a network of pattern makers and CLO specialists I work with who bring relevant experience where needed - happy to talk through how I'd resource the technical side of this properly.
FNTKS is a technical design agency built around one idea - your vision matters, and it deserves to be executed accurately. Buth that doesn’t negate the technical gap, that means finding the right specialist for the job, not defaulting to doing everything
in-house.
We connect early-stage labels with the right patternmakers, technical designers, and factory partners for their specific brief, then oversee the work from concept through production.
Led by a technical designer and patternmaker with experience across major fashion houses, FNTKS brings heritage-level technical standards to brands who are just getting started - without the overhead of a full in-house team.
We handle sourcing the right approach, tracking production against spec, and consulting throughout, so founders get build-ready results without juggling vendors themselves.
