Stay on top of fashion trends, market developments and consumer preferences to bring new ideas and inspiration to seasonal collections.
Create sketches, garment concepts, colour palettes and design packages that bring creative ideas to life.
Contribute to fabric, print, trim and colour selection, with an eye for the details that make each design stand out.

A foundational understanding of garment fit, proportions and construction, with a willingness to continue learning.
Creativity, curiosity, a collaborative mindset and strong attention to detail.
Good organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.
