Company Background

With over 75 years of industry expertise, The Levy Group remains one of the largest apparel manufacturers in the United States. Our commitment to outstanding quality, value, and customer service has enabled us to continually grow and innovate in a highly challenging marketplace. Our network has grown to over 300 retail partners, five international offices, a portfolio of iconic brand partners, and four proprietary brands.

The Levy Group designs, manufactures, imports, markets, and distributes outerwear, swimwear, dresses, activewear, men’s tailored clothing, and sportswear.

Job Summary:

The Men's Designer is responsible for the design, development, and execution of seasonal assortments across multiple menswear categories (excluding denim, headwear, and swim) for mid-tier and off-price sales channels. This role combines creative vision with commercial sensibility, delivering value-driven product that meets customer expectations while aligning with brand direction. The Designer manages the end-to-end process — from concept research and sketching through sample execution and sales presentation — ensuring assortments are innovative, financially viable, and on time.

Responsibilities:

Concept & Design Development

  • Research seasonal trends, fabrics, colors, and graphics to inform design direction across multiple menswear categories.
  • Create original sketches, technical flats, and presentation boards to communicate design vision.
  • Partner with Merchandising to align assortments with financial goals, customer needs, and margin requirements for mid-tier and off-price accounts.
  • Build color palettes, fabric stories, and product narratives that balance creativity with value-driven positioning.

Product Execution

  • Develop detailed tech packs and specifications for samples, ensuring accuracy in fit, construction, and fabric selection.
  • Collaborate with Development and Vendors to achieve quality standards, cost goals, and seasonal timelines.
  • Review and provide comments on proto samples, lab dips, trims, and strike-offs.
  • Maintain PLM data accuracy for all assigned styles.
  • Oversee the seasonal sample process for design approvals and sales presentations.

Collaboration & Calendar Management

  • Partner with Merchandising, Development, Production, and Sales to ensure designs align with assortment strategies and calendar deadlines.
  • Present designs during milestone meetings (creative kickoff, CAD reviews, line close, sales release).
  • Provide design input for seasonal marketing, catalog, and B2B assets.
  • Manage workload effectively to deliver high-quality results on time.

Market & Customer Awareness

  • Monitor competitive assortments and pricing within mid-tier and off-price channels; identify opportunities for differentiation.
  • Translate customer and consumer insights into commercially viable product solutions.
  • Ensure designs reflect brand identity while resonating with value-driven retail environments.

Why Join Us?

This is an opportunity to influence a wide range of menswear categories within a global brand, designing assortments that deliver style and value in mid-tier and off-price channels. You’ll work closely with Merchandising, Development, and Sales to create consumer-focused designs that achieve financial goals and strengthen brand presence in competitive markets.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Fashion Design or related field.
  • 3–5 years of experience in apparel design, ideally within mid-tier and/or off-price retail accounts.
  • Broad menswear design experience across multiple categories (excluding denim, headwear, and swim).
  • Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and PLM systems; strong CAD and technical drawing skills.
  • Strong knowledge of garment construction, fit, and fabric development.
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and collaboration skills.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and adaptable to shifting priorities.
  • Ability to travel domestically and internationally as needed.
