An Assistant Pattern Maker supports the design and production process by creating, modifying, and grading patterns for garments or textiles. They work closely with designers and senior pattern makers to ensure accurate fit and proportions. Responsibilities include digitizing patterns, making adjustments based on fittings, and collaborating with manufacturing teams to improve efficiency. Strong attention to detail, knowledge of garment construction, and proficiency in pattern-making software are key skills for this role.
To thrive as an Assistant Pattern Maker, you should have a solid understanding of garment construction, pattern drafting, and basic sewing techniques, often supported by a degree or coursework in fashion design or pattern making. Familiarity with pattern making software such as Gerber or CAD systems is highly valuable, as well as experience with manual drafting tools. Attention to detail, effective communication, and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment are important soft skills. These abilities are crucial for accurately translating design concepts into production-ready patterns and ensuring seamless coordination within the fashion production process.
A typical day for an Assistant Pattern Maker involves collaborating closely with designers and senior pattern makers to interpret sketches, create sample patterns, and make adjustments based on fit sessions or design changes. You might split your time between working on computers with pattern making software and hands-on tasks like cutting fabric or refining sample garments. The role often includes reviewing tech packs, communicating with the production team, and ensuring patterns are ready for manufacturing. Fast-paced and detail-oriented, this position provides valuable exposure to the overall garment creation process and is a solid stepping stone to more advanced roles in pattern making or technical design.

We are specifically looking for someone with advanced technical experience who can accurately translate runway level bridal designs into production ready Gerber patterns while maintaining the integrity of fit, proportion, and construction.
This is not a fashion design role. This position is for a highly technical production pattern maker with deep Gerber expertise, strong grading knowledge, and an advanced understanding of luxury garment construction.
Responsibilities
• Plot, build, and maintain production ready patterns within Gerber
• Digitize and translate existing patterns, drapes, and runway samples into accurate production files
• Create clean, organized, and technically precise Gerber patterns for production
• Develop grading rules and maintain consistency across all size ranges
• Establish and communicate grading standards clearly within Gerber and production workflows
• Maintain the integrity, proportion, and silhouette of each gown throughout all size ranges
• Collaborate closely with the design, cutting, and sewing teams during development and production
• Lead fittings alongside the design team and execute technical fit corrections
• Work closely with seamstresses to guide construction methods and sewing techniques
• Collaborate with the sewing team to ensure garments are executed to couture level standards
• Review garments during construction to catch fit or construction issues before completion
• Create and maintain organized Gerber files, markers, grading, and spec standards
• Work with delicate luxury fabrics including silk tulle, lace, corsetry, and structured bridal construction
• Assist in improving atelier systems and production workflow standards
Requirements
• Advanced Gerber experience required
• Strong experience building production patterns directly in Gerber
• Senior level draping and pattern making skills
• Expert understanding of fit, grading, garment balance, and production construction
• Advanced understanding of grading rules, proportional balance, and luxury fit across size ranges
• Strong understanding of how corsetry, structure, and silhouette must scale across bridal sizing without losing design integrity
• Couture level sewing and construction knowledge
• Ability to communicate construction methods and sewing techniques clearly to seamstresses and production teams
• Experience taking runway or editorial garments into production
• Strong technical knowledge of bridal, corsetry, and eveningwear construction
• Ability to identify and solve construction and fit issues independently
• Highly detail oriented with strong organizational skills
• Comfortable working in a fast paced atelier environment
• Minimum 10 years experience in production pattern making required
• Fluent in Spanish and English is a plus
Ideal Candidate
You are highly technical, detail obsessed, and deeply experienced in Gerber. You understand how luxury garments should fit, hang, balance, and translate into production. You can look at a runway gown and understand how to engineer it into a production ready garment while preserving the original design intention.
You are also comfortable collaborating directly with seamstresses and production teams to refine sewing techniques, improve construction methods, and maintain couture level standards throughout production.
