About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Freelance Women’s Loungewear Designer to develop a focused collection that combines comfort, quality, and commercial appeal. This is a freelance project role, ideally suited to someone who has already designed loungewear ranges for UK high-street and department store retailers such as John Lewis, TK Maxx, Next, M&S, or similar.
The role requires a deep understanding of the loungewear category — from fabric qualities and sizing standards to the nuances of fit, silhouette, and trend direction. You will be responsible for creating a cohesive collection that balances design creativity with commercial viability.
Key Responsibilities
* Design and develop a women’s loungewear collection from concept through to final range.
* Research trends, fabrics, colours, and consumer preferences specific to loungewear.
* Produce sketches, CADs, and technical packs for sampling and production.
* Ensure designs meet quality, fit, and sizing standards suitable for large UK retailers.
* Liaise with product development, sourcing, and buying teams to align with timelines and cost parameters.
* Deliver a balanced range plan with attention to product mix, price points, and market positioning.
* Adapt designs based on feedback and ensure samples are production-ready.
Requirements
* Proven experience designing women’s loungewear collections for recognised UK retailers (e.g. John Lewis, TK Maxx, Next, Debenhams, M&S, etc.).
* Strong knowledge of fabrications, knitwear, fleece, jersey, and woven materials relevant to loungewear.
* Understanding of UK retail sizing, grading, and garment construction.
* Proficiency in design software (Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop, CLO 3D or similar).
* Excellent eye for colour, proportion, and detail.
* Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and deliver a commercially relevant collection.
Contract
* Freelance / Project-based
* Location: Remote, with meetings in London as required
* Duration: To be agreed based on project scope
