We are looking for an intern to come to our midtown office 2 to 3 days a week., for several hours a day. The hours per day may vary from week to week, but will not exceed an 8 hour day.

This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about textiles and to see the fashion industry from another side. Our past interns have come from both the design and production areas of fashion.
