About Silk \& Sequins
Silk \& Sequins is an established fashion house transitioning its signature heritage of bespoke, high\-end tailoring into an exclusive, ultra\-luxury Ready to Wear line. Driven by high\-octane glamour, structural drama, and unapologetic femininity, our collections focus on premium garment architecture and show\-stopping evening wear.

Studio Alignment (Occasional): Avail of flexible, periodic visits to our Carlow studio to review new garment architecture, understand the craftsmanship, and capture authentic behind\-the\-scenes content.
Requirements:

Confident, professional communication skills with the ability to pitch to retail buyers face\-to\-face and via email.
High organizational discipline—you must be comfortable managing spreadsheets and tracking leads accurately.
Familiarity with digital content tools (e.g., Canva, CapCut, social media editing) is a strong advantage.
Based in or within reasonable commuting distance of Co. Carlow for occasional studio alignment and regional boutique visits.
Benefits:A direct 10% commission on the wholesale value of all successful accounts you secure.
Long\-Term Career Growth: The opportunity to establish yourself early within a growing luxury brand with a view to long\-term employment.
