This involved receiving tasks like developing CAD’s or Prints for other brands such as Reclaimed Vintage but I mainly worked for the ASOS Design department. I worked closely with the ASOS buying team by fulfilling their costing and creative requests and sending them garment samples, in order to create a great end product ready for it to be manufactured in bulk. I also helped create trackers on an excel spreadsheet so we can keep track of what garments we are yet to receive and what has been sent out to the buyers, this way nothing gets lost and everything remains organised.

I helped manage all relevant social media pages in terms of growth, posts, queries and keeping track of analytics as well as creating spreadsheets of promotional samples that were being sent out to influencers/bloggers. I would create professional emails to be sent out to anyone that needed more information or those that agreed to collaborate with us.Moreover, I added products that customers were able to purchase by setting up their Instagram Shop and connecting their Instagram page to Shopify. We faced a few issues in the process but I managed to find solutions for all of them. I had attended meetings every now and then with the founders in their studio to discuss fresh new ideas and how we would be able to take them forward. IG: @entwineuk🌐 www.entwineuk.com
