Job description

SENIOR FASHION DESIGNER & PRODUCT DEVELOPER

Lost in Paradise is looking for an experienced, highly creative and commercially minded Senior Fashion Designer & Product Developer to join our team in Bali.

We’re looking for someone who truly lives and breathes fashion — someone who is constantly researching, analysing the market, discovering new ideas and thinking about what we should create next.

This is not a role for someone who simply waits for a design brief. We want someone proactive who understands our customer and brand, can identify gaps and opportunities within our collections, and confidently develop fresh products that are both creative and commercially strong.

THE ROLE

Research global fashion trends, competitors and international markets to identify upcoming styles, silhouettes, colours, fabrics and new opportunities.

Analyse the market and recommend the right selection and balance of dresses, tops, bottoms, sets and key seasonal pieces for each collection.

Develop fresh and innovative designs that feel relevant to the Lost in Paradise aesthetic while bringing something new to the brand.

Understand our target customer and use both market insights and previous sales performance to help determine what we should develop next.

Review best-selling products and identify opportunities to evolve successful silhouettes into new styles rather than simply repeating them.

Create original garment designs from initial concept and sketches through to sampling and final development.

Have a strong understanding of fit, proportion and body shape, particularly when developing dresses and womenswear silhouettes.

Select and recommend fabrics, colours, prints, trims and finishes appropriate for each design.

Work closely with pattern makers, sampling and production teams throughout the development process.

Lead sample fittings and provide clear, detailed revisions to improve fit, construction and finishing.

Maintain a strong eye for detail and ensure products meet our quality and brand standards before production.

Manage multiple styles and developments simultaneously while keeping collections moving according to schedule.

Continuously bring new references, product ideas and opportunities to the team — without waiting to be asked.
