Poetry Fashion

• London, England, United Kingdom

• Fashion Sales Specialist

  • Feb 2018 - Sep 2018

  My experience with Poetry brand is one of the most enjoyable so far. The customers of the store were native women, defined by a refined and bohemian style. According to my experience in working with materials and know their compositions, it is easy for me to communicate with clients and find out their needs. The background and the study in the artistic field helped me a lot; for me it is a pleasure to match colors and volumes. Following the sales objective of the store and the target I had to meet, my sales were constantly high. In addition to a professional customer service, I had the responsibility to participate in the visual merchandising, so I had the freedom to set outfits for the shop window and participate to decoration of the display.

  My role in the store was to meet the customers with enthusiasm, to promote the image of the store and to meet the sales target.

• Fabric Testing

  • Nov 2015 - Jan 2017

  Being part of a garment production department, I learned to work efficiently. My role was to be an intermediary between the client (Top Shop, Tesco, Primark, Coast, Debenhams) and the laboratories where the fabric materials were tested. Doing submissions for the laboratory depending on the specificity of each client (depending on the material I had to decide which tests to apply) and following the results we established the wash-care (label with washing instructions) according to each garment. This taught me to analyze each particular case and decide the best solution. The test results are uploaded to online platforms, where together with the technologist of each client we approve whether the material can be delivered or the material supplier must improve the fabric until all tests (color, strength and chemical) have passed. In the last two months I have had all responsibility for customer Debenhams. I had the final decision over the delivery of bulk fabric. This role gave me the opportunity to learn something new daily and adapt to unforeseen situations. Show less
