Maria Fokin (asker) Jun 21, 2016:
Interesting suggestion. I haven't even considered "capo" to refer to the head. Unfortunately, it can't be correct. The company for which the person in question worked does not deal with headwear, only with clothing, so capo is most likely "un capo di abbigliamento".
I am assuming she was responsible for the graphics and other decorative motifs on T-shirts and such, but don't know the most appropriate term to express this.

Headwear, presumably, though if you do Google Images you get pictures of women in hoods and headscarves rather than hats.

Note from asker:
thank you for your response, but siting the CV I am translating does not really help me understand the term, especially when I intentionally avoided using the name of the person involved. In your second reference, the word is being used in a completely different context, and would not be translated as "design" but "decorate". Can you clarify why you think vestizione refers to designing a garment and not, for example, garment construction or decoration? Thank you!
