Production Position – Umpire London
Umpire London is a new bodywear brand, targeting the high-end, ‘lifestyle’ market. It will be initially web-based, and products will ship worldwide.
One of the first test batches will be approximately 60 pairs of men’s underwear (boxers/trunks), coming in a range of colourways. The pattern design, grading, and sampling work is currently in process with a fashion studio in London.
Umpire is looking for a student with a meticulous eye for high-quality garment production (following the studio’s patterns), and who would like to be involved with choosing aspects of the design details.
Ideally, you will also have experience with machine embroidery, the jacquard loom, and elastic.
This is a paid opportunity. Depending on the outcome of this first project, there may be further (also paid) work available. If you are interested in this position please send a brief cover letter, CV and any samples of your work to Craig via c.wadman@soton.ac.uk
