• Lay each design out on the 3-piece: shirt front, back, sleeves, daman, dupatta with pallu and border, and trouser.
• For print: build seamless repeats and placements, prepare print-ready files with colour separations and Pantone TCX references, make colourways and approve strike-offs.
• For embroidery: prepare artwork for multi-head and Schiffli machines, brief punchers on stitch types and density, choose threads and embellishment, and approve samples.
• Use AI print tools to draft and refine, keep prompts and drafts on file, and reverse-image-search every final print.
• Keep each design within the cost target for its range.
• Work with fashion designers on placement for ready-to-wear, track sales and use the results in the next collection.

Required profile

• Degree in textile design.
• 2 to 5 years designing prints or embroidery for a Pakistani womenswear brand, print house, embroidery unit or mill.

Required skills

• Strong Photoshop and Illustrator for print, or strong CorelDRAW for embroidery; Wilcom is a plus.

• Comfort with AI image or pattern tools, or willingness to learn them.
