The designer will take ownership of the collection-development process from concept to final sample, including:

• Working closely with pattern masters, sampling tailors, merchandisers, and the production team
• Selecting suitable fabrics, trims, prints, embroideries, and surface details
• Reviewing fittings and samples and recommending corrections
• Following each style through until the final approved sample
• Ensuring the collection is commercially relevant for buyers in the USA, Europe, and Australia
• Keeping sustainability, comfort, functionality, and international kidswear trends at the centre of the design process
What we are looking for

• Good understanding of garment construction, fit, fabrics, prints, and sampling
• Ability to translate concepts into commercially viable products
• Strong coordination and communication skills
• Ability to independently manage timelines and multiple styles
