About The Position

The Design Assistant is a key support role on Reformation's in-house Design team, contributing across all phases of the design and product development process — from concept and research through final handoff. This role keeps the creative engine running smoothly, partnering closely with designers, Merchandising, Product Development, and Technical Design to move work forward with precision and care. You are highly organized and detail-oriented, equally comfortable building a mood board and updating styles in our PLM system. You thrive in a fast-paced environment, take pride in the quality of your output, and understand that great design depends as much on process as on ideas.

  • Build and maintain mood boards, color stories, and presentation decks for internal reviews and cross-functional meetings
  • Prepare and organize design sketches, tech packs, and CADs for vendor communication and line reviews
  • Track sample status, fit comments, and revision notes across styles; attend fittings and communicate updates to cross-functional partners
  • Coordinate with Production and Technical Design on timing, revisions, and product development milestones
  • Conduct ongoing market and competitive research; shop the market in person and online and summarize findings for the team
