Job Description
About us
We are a globally backed fashion label selling across the US, UK and EU. We move fast: hundreds of new styles a month, from brief to live in about 75 days.
The role
US Design Consultant/Fashion Buyer (Freelance) - Part-time - Remote, US-based - Flexible hours
You track what is selling in the US and turn it into direction our India-based team can design from. This is not a full-time role. It is a flexible side opportunity for a fashion professional who wants to shape monthly launches alongside their current role.
What you’ll do
- Forecast US trends. Identify where US fashion and consumer taste are heading, each month.
Curate 30-50 commercial styles a month. Build a monthly edit of commercially viable styles.
- Identify potential bestsellers. Recognize styles with strong sales potential in the US market and prioritize them early.
- Give design direction. Direction on silhouettes, fabrics, colors, prints, trims and details.
- Report market movement. Cover what is trending across retail, social media and emerging brands.
- Run competitor and market analysis. Track US competitors, brands, pricing and launches, and turn findings into actions we can take.
- Review before launch. Provide feedback on upcoming collections before they go live.
What success looks like
- You can deliver 30-50 commercial styles monthly, on deadline.
- Your direction is specific enough for the team to design from without further follow-up.
- Your selections reflect what has the potential to sell in the US, not only what is new.
- Your pre-launch feedback is reflected in collections before they go live.
What we’re looking for
- You currently work as a Fashion Buyer, Assistant Buyer, Stylist or Fashion Designer.
- Strong aesthetic and commercial sense. You know what sells, not only what looks good.
- A proven eye for potential bestsellers.
- Deep knowledge of the US retail landscape and US consumer behavior.
- You build structured monthly trend reports independently.
- You turn trends into commercially viable products.
- Clear communication for remote collaboration across time zones.
This suits you if
- You want a flexible, part-time role alongside your existing role.
- You actively track the US fashion market and what is selling across retail and social channels.
- You are highly organized, self-driven, and meet monthly deadlines reliably.
Why join
- Shape monthly launches alongside your current role.
- See your selections go from direction to live product in about 75 days.
- Flexible structure, remote collaboration with a global team.
- Be part of a growing brand with global ambitions.
