We have internships available for fashion design majors or people with intermediate to advanced sewing and draping skills to assist in preparing our sample collection for presentation and photography.
We are a very small design house that produces two collections a year. We do everything in-house from sketching, draping, flat patterning, cutting, and sample production.
Our collection consists mostly of cocktail dresses and separates, and evening wear. It is high-end, modern, and sexy. You can see what we do at www.paulcarroll.com
Email resumes to internships@paulcarroll.com and include the word internship in the subject line.
The ideal candidate will have intermediate to advanced sewing skills and will have a keen interest in fashion and pay great attention to detail. The position can involve any and all aspects of working with the designer in a (small!) workroom to create the samples.
Tasks would include sourcing and pricing of fabrics, notions and trims, organizing and cataloging workroom supplies, cutting out patterns, simple garment construction, and sewing sequins or beads on finished samples.
The internship is unpaid, the hours are flexible, and it is a terrific opportunity to get real hands on experience doing everything involved in putting together a small collection. Chosen candidates will be required to be responsible, on time and reliable. Credit may be offered by your school.
Our studio is on the lower east side just east of Nolita and easily reached by N, R, W, F, V or 6 subways. If you are interested or want further information, please email us at internships@paulcarroll.com . Please be sure to include the word INTERNSHIP in the subject line.
You should include a cover letter explaining what you would like to gain from your internship, when and for how long you will be available, and how many hours/days a week you are available. We will only contact those in whom we are interested.
