Full Job Description
Ad Expires In: 1 month 1 week About: Mint Velvet take the trends, and relax them so that women who still want a nod to fashion can do so in a carefree way, whilst enabling season-by-season wardrobe building and cohesion; the collections will work effortlessly with each other each season. Thought goes into even the tiniest of details, making Mint Velvet a gorgeous (and affordable) treat. Mint Velvet believe that clothing should make women feel sexy and confident so ensure each piece is designed and fit with the modern woman in mind. Beautiful prints, individual detailing, and refined textures in luxe, easy-to-wear fabrics give the collection a feel which oozes stylish femininity and always underpinned with Mint Velvet's relaxed-glamour handwriting. Mint Velvet also use one-off artisan prints and skin pleasing fabrics such as cashmere, silk, linen and fabulously naturalistic faux fur, off-set by intricate embellishment. Back To Results Mint Velvet began when founders Liz Houghton and Lisa Agar-Rea set out to create an unfailingly chic collection of contemporary, great quality staples and elevated fits that they felt were missing from their wardrobes. Feeling frustrated that they couldn't find anything they wanted to wear, or the great customer service they craved, they started fusing relaxed comfort with glamorous yet wearable fashion trends. Relaxed Glamour was born. As collaborative creatives, we take untold pride in our work, designing with heart and soul. We want to be a force for good and are committed to becoming a more circular and responsible business, from the fabrics we choose to our considered processes. We are an agile and growing business, and we work hard to create an environment which allows for growth and progression, balanced with the support and flexibility needed to meet the challenge of a high-performance culture. Our leadership teams and founders sit amongst the teams and encourage a culture of balance and passion.
