Jessica Burris

I have enjoyed a career in the fashion industry for fifteen years. As a creative leader, I have a deep understanding of product innovation, design direction and consumer insight.

I have worked closely with high profile collaborators, athletes, artists and musicians. Beyonce, Kanye West, Gonz, Nick Jonas, Kim Kardashian, Golfers Olivia Jackson and Becky Robinson. I am a confident and inventive people leader with the ability to direct teams with composure, compassion and vision. My life’s work consists of strong aesthetic skills and advanced insights of culture, taste and sport. I have cut my teeth in apparel manufacturing and understanding the old world of sewing, from ISO to patterns to coutour finishings.

I’m passionate about creating product and pushing the future of design through both analogue and digital tools. The collections I have had a hand in merge worlds of innovation, fashion, streetwear and sportswear. I am a champion of technologies to help simplify communicating complex subjects. I help counterparts across the globe win the day and create beautiful products.

A Portland Fashion Institute graduate, I have worked for global apparel brands PXG, Adidas Originals, Yeezy, Ivy Park for Beyonce, Nike Swim, Kroger Apparel, Spacecraft Apparel, Nordstrom, Spruce Fashion Design, and T1 mill JingYing Textile in Guangzhou China.

I have expertise in 3D Virtual Design & Fit, domestic and international production and agility on volatile, changing startups. I'm a strong team player familiar with the challenges of speed briefs and tight deadlines,

I’m a passionate athlete. A former All-American in swimming and waterpolo, I have coached many high-schoolers and belive that through sport we have the power to change lives across the world.

Thanks for connecting and feel free to drop me a line.

Cheers,

Jessica Burris
