Responsibilities- Develop and strengthen the design language across collections, proposing 1-3 directional options per piece and identifying details or products that dilute collection cohesion.

- Lead sample reviews, clearly document corrections, and manage iteration cycles with sample rooms and factories through final aesthetic and finish approval.
- Partner with Creative Direction, Technical Design, Materials, Production, Brand, and E-commerce teams to translate aesthetic decisions into technical documentation, costing, factory handoff, and product content.
- Maintain documentation and rationale for detail decisions, track recurring silhouette and material patterns, and support cohesive product groupings season over season.
- 4-7 years of design or design-development experience with a design-led contemporary or luxury apparel brand.
- Strong aesthetic judgment, collection-level cohesion, and the ability to interpret and amplify an established design point of view.
- Hands-on experience with sample rooms and factories, including sample reviews, detail-level corrections, fabric considerations, and production development.
- Fluent knowledge of garment construction, trims, finishes, hardware, and detail vocabulary; able to present multiple directional options and respond constructively to creative feedback.
