Atelier Internship

The role: a six-month studio internship in a working slow fashion atelier, from the development of a collection through its presentation at Berlin Fashion Week. You work by hand, led by Marie-Louise. You start on the date your program sets, any day between 1 September and 1 October 2026. Over six months you contribute across the atelier's craft: - Draping and pattern construction: draping on the form, then translating muslin into flat production patterns, with internal structure such as corsetry, boning and padding for the most demanding pieces - Garment construction and upcycling: cutting and assembling silks, linens and reworked archival material, and adapting patterns so found material reads as intended - Hand embroidery and crochet: bead and tambour embroidery at the frame, and the hand-shaping of crocheted elements for placement - Show support: technical dressing at the runway, with live fittings and backstage alterations under time pressure Who we look for: attitude first. You have genuine energy, you already crochet (basic is enough), and you want six months at the form, at the frame, and backstage at the runway. You are a fashion design student in Berlin, completing a mandatory internship (Pflichtpraktikum) as part of your studies.
