Womenswear Design Assistant

A legacy in progress...

Say hello to a new era of modern sophistication. PrettyLittleThing has undergone a rebrand. A bold new vision shaping a brand that celebrates both heritage and evolution.

Fashion is all about reinvention, and at PLT we are proving that style is more than just what you wear—it’s a statement. We are stepping away from being a fast fashion brand, and pivoting towards giving customers premium quality product and design.

Are you ready to join our movement?

Working with us

We don’t call ourselves the PLT family for nothing – you can feel the buzz and atmosphere as soon as you walk into the office. Creativity flows from person to person and across departments, helping us create the empowered movement of love, inclusion, equality and acceptance behind our brand. We encourage everyone to be themselves, and if you bring your best self to work every day, you truly have the power to make a difference and contribute to our brand's success.

To succeed here, you must love working at pace. It’s relentless, but we love it. Change is a certainty – you need to adapt and be agile.
