About the Role
Are you passionate about fashion and making dreams come true? Our boutique offers a curated collection of both brand-new and "gently loved" designer bridal and formal gowns. We pride ourselves on sustainability, luxury, and an intimate shopping experience.
We are looking for a Bridal Sales Consultant who is more than just a salesperson—you are a stylist, a confidant, and a technical expert. You will guide clients through one of the most emotional and important purchases of their lives, providing "white-glove" service from the moment they walk through our doors.
Key Responsibilities
- Expert Styling: Curate gown selections based on a client’s unique aesthetic, venue, and personal style.
- Body Positive Consultation: Demonstrate a deep understanding of garment construction to recommend silhouettes that flatter and celebrate various body shapes.
- Technical Precision: Accurately perform body measurements to ensure correct sizing for new orders and advise on potential alteration needs for our gently worn collection.
- White-Glove Service: Provide a high-end, stress-hearted experience, managing appointments with poise, patience, and a "yes, and" attitude.
- Boutique Upkeep: Maintain the visual integrity of the showroom, ensuring gowns are handled with care and displayed beautifully.
What We’re Looking For
- A Keen Eye for Fashion: You stay ahead of bridal trends and understand the nuances of lace, silk, tulle, and beadwork.
- Exceptional Communication: You are an active listener who can translate a client’s vague ideas into the perfect look.
- Detail-Oriented: Precision matters, especially when it comes to measurements and high-end fabrics.
- Reliability: You are available to work consistently, including every Saturday.
- Experience: Previous experience in luxury retail, bridal, or formalwear is preferred but not required for a candidate with the right "spark" and fashion background.
Why Join Us?
- Work-Life Balance: Enjoy a consistent 3-day weekend (Sunday/Monday off).
- Unique Environment: Work with a diverse inventory of high-end gowns in a cozy, boutique setting.
- Impact: Help brides find "the one" while supporting a sustainable approach to the bridal industry.
