Christina is a design leader and creative strategist with a deep passion for craft, storytelling, and American-made apparel. With over two decades leading design across denim, outerwear, and lifestyle categories, her work bridges the gap between legacy and modernity—building collections that are as intentional as they are beautiful.
Her career spans iconic brands like Ralph Lauren, Reebok, Timberland, Oakley, and Kimes Ranch. Christina’s approach is hands-on and collaborative, grounded in deep material knowledge, fit development, and fabric storytelling. She believes the smallest details—pocket shapes, topstitch tension, a perfectly placed pleat—can define the soul of a garment.
As founder of Studio DiBernardo, she leads product and concept for brands rooted in culture and purpose. Her leadership style centers servant leadership: clear, balanced, and team-empowering, with a focus on long-term integrity. She is fluent in Adobe Creative Suite, 3D tools, PLM systems, and all phases of the product lifecycle—from sketch to shelf.
Whether shaping a heritage collection or developing new brand concepts, Christina brings vision, rigor, and respect for the work.
