About The Author
Gina Renee Dunham
Gina Renee has been working in the garment industry since 2003, after graduating from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York City (NYC). Directly after graduating, she worked in high fashion in NYC, fitting gowns and tailored women’s suits.
After living in NYC for five years, she moved to California where she worked for two leading action sports clothing brands, creating snowboarding outerwear and surfing boardshorts.
In 2012, Gina moved to Germany where she worked as a freelance patternmaker and started Gina Renee Designs, an Indie sewing pattern company. She has lived in Switzerland since 2014, where she leads a team of patternmakers and developers at a sportswear brand.
Her main task while working in the garment industry has always been to develop quality clothes that fit well. She has fitted thousands of garments during her career, including for top performing athletes who have won gold medals in international competitions. Gina has always loved the technical side of fitting, and her goal is to help you achieve the perfectly-fitting clothes you dream of.
She is also the creator of The GRD Method™ in patternmaking, which teaches you how to achieve a customized fit based on your body measurements. Her online course is called “Making a Moulage - The GRD Method™,” and it gives you a solid foundation to design clothes that fit well.
Gina grew up in Colorado and is a nature-girl by heart. She is happy to be living near nature once again in Switzerland. During her free time, she enjoys hiking, swimming, and cycling in the beautiful Swiss Alps, and of course, sewing!
