Aflalo is a modern luxury fashion house defined by elegance, opulence, and bold femininity. Our SoHo atelier is the heart of the brand — where concepts are transformed into garments through meticulous craft and uncompromising quality.

Role Summary

We are seeking a highly organized, hands-on Atelier Assistant to support our in-house sample room and production team. This is an entry-level role ideal for someone eager to learn the foundations of luxury garment development.

Sample Room Support

  • Track prototypes, SMS, and production samples in and out of the atelier
  • Deliver and pick up items from local suppliers and factories as needed

  • Log alterations and help communicate updates to patternmakers and sewers
  • Support rapid prototyping and sample iterations

Vendor & Production Support

  • Assist with email communication to overseas factories and fabric mills under supervision of the production team
  • Support initial sourcing research for fabrics, trims, and suppliers
  • Enter and update PLM data: BOMs, POs, and sample comments
  • Maintain WIPs and seasonal production calendars with guidance from senior team members

General Support

  • Help prepare the studio for photoshoots, showroom, and market week
  • Provide daily assistance to patternmakers, sewers, and the production team
  • Contribute to a collaborative, solutions-oriented studio environment

Qualifications

  • Comfort with hands-on, physical tasks (lifting bolts of fabric, organizing trims, dressing models)
  • Familiarity with garment construction and sewing techniques is a plus
  • Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets; PLM/ERP and Adobe Illustrator experience a plus
  • Strong written communication skills; comfort drafting professional emails to vendors and suppliers
