Head of Design – Women's Fashion

Lahore, Pakistan | Full-Time, On-Site (Nishat HQ)

Backed by one of Pakistan's leading vertically integrated textile manufacturers

We're launching a premium women's fashion brand focused on unstitched lawn, khaddar, karandi, and festive fabrics — with new capsules dropping every 5–6 weeks.

We're looking for a Head of Design who's done this before: led collections from mood board to shelf, worked with mills and printers, and knows how to combine design creativity with production practicality.

What You'll Lead
  • Seasonal Design Direction – Create and execute print stories, embroidery concepts, colour palettes, and trim ideas.
  • Fast Capsule Development – Launch fresh unstitched drops every 5–6 weeks (6+ capsules/year).
  • Studio & Team Oversight – Lead print designers, colourists, embroidery specialists, and sample makers.
  • Fabric & Trim Finalisation – Lock GSMs, finishes, and embellishments with in-house weaving and dyeing teams.
  • Tech Pack Ownership – Approve print repeats, embroidery placements, and sample production.
  • Collaboration Execution – Co-create capsule collections with external fashion designers and ensure design integrity.
  • Cost-Conscious Design – Partner with merchandising to align creativity with target margins and yield.
You're Right for This If You
  • Have 2+ years of full-time experience designing unstitched women's collections (lawn, winter, festive).
  • Have launched at least two full seasonal collections from concept to store.
  • Can create and finalize repeat layouts, placement prints, and embroidery specs.
  • Are fluent in Photoshop/Illustrator and understand the textile production process.
  • Have worked closely with textile mills or printers on fabrics, dyeing, and strike-offs.
  • Know how to lead a team, work fast, and give clear, decisive feedback.
  • Are excited to shape the design language of a premium new brand from the ground up.
What We Offer
  • A leadership role in a brand-new high-growth vertical.
  • Direct access to in-house mills and QA labs — real speed, no red tape.
  • A strong product DNA backed by decades of textile expertise.
  • Competitive salary, capsule performance bonus, and private health insurance.
  • Deep staff discounts and a highly collaborative culture.
How to ApplyApply on LinkedIn and complete the required screening questions.Email your portfolio (PDF or Behance link, showing at least 3 print designs or embroidery layouts) to:zain@nishat.netSubject line: "Head of Design – Application"Applications without portfolios will not be considered.
