Overview
Male Technical Fit Model – Men’s Shapewear Development | DTLA | $80–$150/hr Jobs in Los Angeles at TAILONG INC
Who We Are
We are a growing shapewear brand expanding into our men’s line, focused on precision fit, compression performance, and product development accuracy.
Our products are designed for men across diverse body types — from athletic builds to natural, everyday proportions.
We conduct structured, in-person fit sessions in Downtown Los Angeles to evaluate development samples across multiple stages (prototype, revised sample, pre-production).
About the Role (Technical Product Development Position)
We are hiring experienced male fit models for on-site product development fittings.
This is a technical development role, not print, runway, influencer, or promotional modeling.
Selected candidates will work directly with our technical designer to evaluate:
- Measurement accuracy
- Compression distribution
- Waistband tension and recovery
- Garment balance and proportion
- Movement testing and wear performance
Prior structured fit session experience is required.
Session Details
- Downtown Los Angeles (DTLA)
- 1–2 sessions per month
- 1–2 hours per session
- $80–$150 per hour (based on experience)
- Independent Contractor (1099)
