Couturier Opportunity – Gown Production
EDYA1929 is a sustainable fashion brand specializing in one-of-a-kind garments created from vintage Japanese kimonos.
We work with traditional materials through a careful, small-scale production process that values precision, craftsmanship, and respect for the original textile.
We are currently seeking an experienced couturier to collaborate with us on gown production projects.
Scope of Work
The selected couturier will work with EDYA1929 through the following structured process:
- Toile / mock-up sample creation

A high level of accuracy, technique, and attention to detail is essential.
Requirements
- Proven experience in gown construction
- Ability to work from samples and detailed specifications
- Comfortable following a structured sampling and fitting process
- One of the following:
- Available to visit our studio in Silang, Cavite for fittings and meetings, or
