• Location: Leicester (Onsite)

• Job Type: Part-time

Hours & Commitment

• Weekly Hours: 15 – 20 hours per week.

• Environment: Fast-paced, high-volume online fashion setting.

Key Responsibilities

• Garment Fitting: Trying on sample garments to help the design and technical teams assess the fit, drape, and movement of the clothing.

• Technical Feedback: Providing feedback on the comfort and feel of garments during the fitting process.

• Collaborative Work: Working closely with garment technologists and designers to ensure production accuracy.

Specific Physical Requirements

Because this role requires the candidate to act as a “living mannequin” for standard sizing, the measurements are very specific:

• Height: Minimum 5ft 5 inches

• Bust: 86cm

• Waist: 66cm

• Hips: 94cm

Career Progression & Training

This role is unique because it offers a path into the technical side of the fashion industry. For candidates who excel in the role, the company may provide training in:

• Garment Technology: Learning the science behind how clothes are constructed and sized.

• Returns Analysis: Understanding why customers return items (e.g., fit issues) and how to improve future designs.

Summary of the Role

A Fit Model is not the same as a “commercial” or “photographic” model. Your primary job is to be the physical blueprint for the brand’s size range. Consistency in your measurements is the most important factor for success in this position.

Quick Tip: If you apply, ensure your measurements are current and accurate within the last week, as the company will likely conduct their own “measure-in” during the interview process.
