Full job description

Job Title: In-House Seamstress / Tailor

Location: South Kensington, London

Start Date: Urgent - we need someone to start this week

Contract: Full-time holiday cover for our Head Tailor throughout September, moving to a part-time basis (2 days a week, flexible) from October onwards

Salary: £150–£200 per day, dependent on relevant experience

About Holden & Hunt

Holden & Hunt started as Gormley & Gamble - London's first women-only tailor in the history of Savile Row's 200 years, creating exquisitely crafted garments for discerning women. From bespoke dresses to beautifully finished suits, we specialise in one-of-a-kind, made-to-measure pieces that empower women to feel confident, strong, and utterly themselves. Based in South Kensington and born on Savile Row, our ethos is simple: women deserve tailoring that fits - not just their bodies, but their lifestyles too.

We're looking for a meticulous, highly skilled Freelance In-House Tailor/Seamstress to provide full-time holiday cover for our Head Tailor this September, continuing on a part-time basis afterwards. This is a hands-on role at the heart of our bespoke production process - working within a creative, fast-paced environment to craft beautifully finished garments for our discerning clientele. We need someone brilliant, with the most exceptional finishing techniques, to join us urgently - ideally starting this week.

Based primarily in our South Kensington atelier, you'll manage client alterations and be responsible for the creation of bespoke garments, from toiles through to finished pieces.

Key Responsibilities

Handle all client alterations, from simple adjustments to complex garment reworkings
Create one-off bespoke pieces, including toiles and final garments
Assist at fittings when required, ensuring exceptional fit, finish, and presentation
Collaborate closely with the pattern cutter, design, and fitting teams to bring each client's vision to life
Ensure all garments meet Holden & Hunt's exacting standards of quality and craftsmanship
Manage your own workload effectively, balancing multiple projects and deadlines

What We're Looking For

A meticulous approach and an exceptional eye for detail and precision — nothing less than perfect finishing will do
Proven experience as a seamstress or tailor within a bespoke, couture, or luxury fashion environment for 10+ years
Technically very accomplished, with expert hand and machine sewing, garment finishing, and complex alterations.
Proven experience with luxury garment finishing techniques
Exceptional skill and confidence working with delicate fabrics, particularly silk
Preferably formally trained - Savile Row or another renowned institution - though this is not essential
Smartly dressed and well presented at all times, particularly during client fittings and while in the studio; first impressions matter to us
A genuine team player who goes above and beyond
Ability to work quickly and independently while maintaining exceptional quality
Strong communication skills and a friendly, collaborative approach during client fittings
A genuine love for beautiful clothes and empowering women through your craft
Previous tailoring or luxury womenswear experience strongly preferred
Pattern cutting experience advantageous but not essential

Additional Info

This role starts as freelance, with the intention to move to a permanent position for the right candidate
From October, we need someone available 2 days a week — we're flexible on which days

To Apply

Please send your CV, along with two examples of your best work - the pieces of sewing you're most proud of - by email ([email protected]). Given how urgently we need to fill this role, applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, so please get in touch as soon as possible.
