Flou Designer – Luxury Womenswear
London
We’re working with one of London’s most exciting contemporary luxury womenswear brands to find an exceptional Flou Designer to join its creative studio.
Think statement dresses, beautiful drape, elevated fabrics, print, embellishment and pieces designed for seriously good nights out.
The brand has built a cult following for its confident, feminine aesthetic and is now entering another exciting stage of international growth. This is a brilliant opportunity to work closely with the Creative Director and have genuine influence across the collections.
The role
You'll take ideas from initial mood and sketch through to the finished piece, designing beautiful, commercial product while protecting that all-important luxury handwriting.
Expect to be immersed in:
* Dresses, soft separates and occasionwear

* Print, embroidery, embellishment and surface detail
* Seasonal concepts, colour palettes and fabric direction
* Sketching and detailed technical CADs
* Fabric sourcing and development
* Sampling, fittings and final sign-off
* Special capsules, exclusives and bridal
* Working directly with factories to perfect every detail
* Collaborating closely with the Creative Director, Product and Pattern Cutting teams
You'll have the freedom to be properly creative, but you'll also understand how to turn a beautiful idea into a product women actually want to buy.
About you
We're looking for a designer within luxury or premium womenswear and a portfolio that makes us want to see more.
You'll have a gorgeous flou / dresses / occasionwear handwriting, alongside:
* Exceptional understanding of drape, fit and silhouette
* Strong fabric and garment construction knowledge
* A beautiful eye for colour, print and detail
* Experience with embroidery and embellishment
* Strong hand sketching and Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop skills

Why this one?
The business has seen significant growth over the last 18 months and is heading into a major new chapter.
You'll be joining a small, ambitious and highly creative team with the opportunity to work closely with senior creatives, contribute to the evolution of the brand and see your designs worn by women around the world.
Beautiful product. Big creative energy. Loads of scope.
If your portfolio is packed with incredible dresses, we'd love to see it.
