Job Type: Full-time

Head Designer — StosiCompany: Stosi Location: Mumbai, India (on-site) Type: Full-time Experience: 2+ years in apparel/Fashion design Category: Fashion Design · Apparel · MenswearAbout StosiStosi is a fashion-forward minimal menswear brand built for people who want to look sharp without being loud.The brand was created from a simple observation: most clothing in the market sits at two extremes. On one side, loud, trend-driven streetwear filled with oversized graphics and branding. On the other, plain basics that lack structure, personality, and up-to-date silhouettes.Stosi was built to exist in the middle. We focus on modern silhouettes, strong structure, premium heavyweight fabrics, and intentional details — without relying on loud graphics or excessive branding. Every piece is designed to feel understated yet distinctive, something that naturally becomes part of your everyday wardrobe rather than a short-lived trend purchase.But Stosi is more than just clothing. At its core, the brand is rooted in the idea of intentional living — owning fewer things, but choosing better ones. We believe style should feel effortless, and that the best clothing communicates through fit, fabric, silhouette, and quiet confidence rather than noise.Today, Stosi is evolving into a lifestyle brand for people who value minimal living, intentional choices, and dressing with purpose.The RoleWe're looking for a Head Designer to own the creative and product direction of Stosi.This is a senior, hands-on role.

and have real authority over the product. As the brand grows, this role grows with it — including building and leading a design team.If you care about garments as objects — fabric weight, the fall of a sleeve, the exact placement of a seam — and you believe restraint is harder and more rewarding than excess, this role is built for you.What You'll DoOwn the seasonal design direction and the drop calendar — from concept to delivered productDesign menswear collections across shirts, jackets, trousers, t-shirts, knitwear, and new categories as the brand expandsDevelop complete tech packs: flat sketches, measurements, construction notes, trim sheetsSource and select fabrics, with a focus on premium materialsLead fit development, sampling, and quality control alongside production partnersMaintain and evolve Stosi's design language — keeping it minimal, structured, and distinctiveTrack silhouette and material trends without letting the brand drift into noiseCollaborate with the founder on product strategy, range planning, and which pieces to expand, iterate, or retireWork with the marketing team on how products are presented and styledBuild and mentor a design team as Stosi scalesWhat We're Looking For2+ years of experience in apparel or fashion design,
