We’re hiring: Bridal Stylist
Helping our brides find the dress of their dreams is at the heart of everything we do and we’ve been lucky enough to help countless women over the past two decades. Our London flagship boutique is a haven, a styling mecca, a little bubble of love, and brides look to our wonderful team of Halfpennys to be their guide throughout their wedding dress journey. It’s an enormous privilege to work with women one-on-one like this, and if you’ve ever wanted to be part of something truly special then now’s your chance because we’re seeking a Bridal Stylist to join us in our London flagship boutique.
Previous experience working in bridal would be helpful but isn’t necessary as the most important quality we’re looking for is the ability and desire to foster strong connections, the emotional intelligence to understand what the bride is saying (and sometimes what they’re not!) and have a creative mindset when it comes to clothes. In short, if you’re the kind of person who brings out the best in people, are interested in fashion and styling, and excited about helping women decide on one of the most special outfits of their lives, we’d love to hear from you!
