Posted 4 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

Hello, We are a contemporary boutique fashion design studio currently in the pre-launch phase, developing an exclusive, highly-structured women's apparel line. We are seeking an experienced, top-tier Digital Pattern Maker and Technical Designer to bring our initial three (3) concepts to life and prepare them for factory production. Our upcoming collection focuses on architectural, sharp, and asymmetrical silhouettes. The three pieces include a highly structured trench-cape, a tailored modular suit, and an architectural pleated cape. Key Deliverables and Responsibilities: 1. Digital Pattern Drafting: Create precision digital patterns based on our creative design briefs and sketches for all 3 designs. 2. Required Formats and Factory-Ready Files: To ensure full compatibility with Turkish manufacturing factories and our internal review, the final delivery must include: - .DXF (ASTM standard): For digital fabric cutting machines. - Native Software Files: Gerber (.ZIP / .TMP) and CLO3D (.ZPRJ) source files. - Plotter-Ready .PDF: Scaled to full-size production plotter measurements for direct printing. 3. Size Grading: Perform accurate digital size grading (S, M, L, XL) tailored to Middle Eastern / Gulf region size charts and modest-wear length requirements. 4. Comprehensive Tech Packs: Develop complete technical packages including sewing construction details, fabric consumption, stitching specifications, and measurement tolerances. Budget and Proposals: Please note that the $25 budget listed is a placeholder only. We want to attract top talent and are looking for competitive, professional quotes. Please submit your actual financial proposal/bid for executing the complete deliverables (Patterns, Formats, Grading, and Tech Packs) for all 3 designs. Requirements and Qualifications: - Proven portfolio with extensive experience in structural tailoring, heavy outerwear (coats / trenches), lined jackets, and sharp fabric manipulation. - Deep understanding of garment structure, inner linings, and shoulder pad engineering. - Fluency in digital pattern-making software (Gerber, CLO3D, Optitex, etc.). - Knowledge of Middle Eastern fashion preferences or Arabic language skills is a massive plus, but technical competency is our number one priority. How to Apply: To filter out automated bot applications and ensure you have read this brief completely, please start your application cover letter with the word "ORIGAMI" in capital letters. Applications without this keyword will be instantly declined. Please attach your portfolio showcasing previous technical flats, pattern designs, or tech packs you have developed for structured garments. Looking forward to collaborating with a true clothing engineer!
