Studio Internships at Tata Naka

Luxury fashion brand Tata Naka are looking for interns to assist in their West London studio.

Description
We offer internships on an unpaid voluntary basis – or as a course requirement by your college. Normally our interns have to be over 18 and in tertiary education i.e. doing a degree course to qualify for work experience.

Interns will work on hand sewing, pattern drafting, garment construction, logistic and sales experience. They will get first hand experience of the inner workings of a design studio, working closely with the designers and core team through to Fashion week.

Our office hours are 10am to 6pm Monday to Friday.

Profile
We are a small but perfectly formed high end fashion label based in West London! We show at LFW twice a year and produce six collections per annum so there is always something to help with and to get involved with.

We are looking for hard working interns who like to get stuck in and learn all about how a small business works.

Specific Needs
Ideally fashion students only as interns will need to be able to handle a variety of tasks including hand sewing, pattern drafting and garment construction.
