Bridal / Couture Pattern Cutter
A rare opportunity to join a leading luxury bridal brand in Australia.
We are looking for an exceptional luxury bridal / couture pattern cutter to join our team and play a key role in creating exquisite, highly engineered bridal gowns.
This is a hands-on role for a highly skilled pattern cutter with a refined understanding of couture construction, luxury bridalwear and, in particular, corsetry. You will work closely with our design and production teams to translate beautiful designs into impeccably fitting, technically sophisticated garments.
The Role
You will be responsible for developing patterns from initial design through to final production, with a particular focus on:
Creating precise patterns for luxury bridal and couture gowns
Developing and refining complex silhouettes and intricate constructions
Strong technical knowledge of corsetry, internal structure and foundation garments
Draping and pattern development where required
Conducting fittings and making detailed technical adjustments
Working with delicate and high-value fabrics, lace, beading and couture embellishment
Collaborating closely with designers, sample makers and the wider production team
Ensuring exceptional fit, proportion, construction and finish
Developing patterns suitable for both one-off couture pieces and luxury production
About You
We are looking for someone with significant professional experience in luxury bridal, couture or high-end womenswear, ideally with a strong portfolio of technically complex garments.
You will have:
Outstanding pattern-cutting skills and an exceptional eye for fit
Strong corsetry and structured garment experience
A deep understanding of couture construction and garment engineering
Experience working with complex bridal silhouettes, including fitted bodices, sculpted gowns and structured skirts
Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to the highest standards
The ability to interpret a designer's vision and translate it into technically precise patterns
A calm, collaborative and solutions-focused approach
Experience working within a luxury or premium fashion environment
Formal qualifications are valued, but exceptional industry experience and technical ability are equally important.
The Opportunity
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced specialist to become part of an ambitious luxury bridal house in Australia, working within a creative and highly skilled team.
We are particularly open to applications from UK and EU-based pattern cutters looking to relocate to Australia. Relocation support and visa sponsorship may be considered for the right candidate.
If you are passionate about couture, obsessed with fit and construction, and have the technical expertise to create extraordinary bridalwear, we would love to hear from you.
