then your fashion design should use a proper CAD to design the board,

Yes, he should... but he won't: (he's not under my control).
I don't get your user case...
are you receiving
1) a KiCAD pcb board from your fashion designer
or
2) the enclosure for your board, coming from the fashion designer
or
3) the outline of the pcb in external format
The 1) is quite a weird case... your fashion designer should us
mechanical sw to define the board outlines
The 2) case is totally on your control...
you need to use a mechanical sw to create pcb outline fitting your enclosure
The same for the 3) case, you can fix the file before importing inside
kicad.
Please have a search for "ECAD MCAD Collaboration" for a deeper insight
