FASHION DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT

directly from China

START YOUR PROJECT

What if your design team were already in China?

Carla Croman Studio is a European-led boutique fashion design and product development studio based in Guangzhou, China. We design and develop your collection locally, reviewing fittings and correcting samples directly with technicians and factories before they are shipped to you.


With our team on the ground, sample reviews, fittings and corrections happen before anything is shipped to you. This means fewer delays, faster decisions and a shorter path from concept to production, helping you save time, reduce costs and scale more efficiently.

MEET CARLA

From Barcelona to Guangzhou.

I’m Carla, a Spanish fashion designer and the founder of Carla Croman Studio. My career has taken me across Spain, the UK, Morocco, and China, where I have been based since 2017.

Over the years, I have worked as both a Lead Designer and Senior Fashion Designer for international high end and luxury brands, including Ports 1961, creating pieces that went on to become bestsellers. My greatest strength has always been understanding the soul of a brand, its identity, customers, and point of view, and turning that into products people genuinely connect with.

After years of helping established companies grow, I wanted to create something that felt closer to my heart and more aligned with my purpose. I founded the studio to share everything I have learned in China, from design and product development to fabric sourcing, fittings, and factories, with founders who need an experienced and honest team by their side.

Today, I personally lead every project alongside our Guangzhou based technical team, helping brands develop collections that feel true to who they are and are ready to grow.
