Internship Opportunity

For 6 months, I had the amazing opportunity to be a design intern at JQN the label.  Working for a small newly opened business meant wearing multiple hats.  I mainly assisted the owner with creating their second collection.  I did this by sharing original ideas on the design, fabric choice, and sources of inspiration/research.  I even got the opportunity to show some of my design ideas, which was incredible! 
After we finalized the sketches, I was then tasked to create the samples for our designs: which included gathering materials, draping and drafting patterns, cutting out pattern pieces, assembling and constructing garments, and communicating with the designer if any changes needed to be made.  
I drew up all the technical flat sketches of the designs in Adobe Illustrator which were used for a line sheet to show retailers.
I also got to dip my toes in the social media world by assisting the social media team with Instagram captions and post ideas.
 

Below are pictures of the process and final samples I made for JQN's second collection:
