About the role

Company Description: Isaac Morris Limited (IML), founded in 1989 and based in the New York City metropolitan area, is a leading licensed apparel manufacturer with over 35 years of experience. The company specializes in boys', girls', young men's, and juniors' clothing, serving specialty stores, department stores, and mass-market retailers with tailored solutions. IML is known for high-quality products, strong artwork, and reliable execution that meet diverse retail needs. With an in-house licensing and art team, the company consistently delivers industry-leading designs aligned with current trends. Team members join a creative, fast-paced environment focused on innovation and brand representation.
The Role: We're looking for the best creative talent in the industry. IML has an immediate need for a Sleepwear Designer to join our team in the New York office. The right candidate has hands-on sleepwear experience and understands exactly what it takes to make the perfect garment — from fabric hand and fit to print placement and packaging. You'll interpret line direction into beautiful, well-executed designs and see them through from concept to production-ready sample.
What You'll Do:
  • Interpret seasonal line direction into original, commercially strong sleepwear designs across licensed and branded programs
  • Partner with the product development team and overseas factory partners to develop samples, ensuring correct fabric selection, construction, and print execution
  • Create and maintain artwork, CADs, and tech-ready design files
  • Own tech packing, sketching, and fit review, and maintain an organized design library
  • Develop packaging and merchandising concepts that bring programs to life at retail
  • Build polished presentation decks for internal reviews and buyer meetings, with strong attention to formatting and storytelling
  • Lead trend research and translate market analysis into actionable design direction
  • Comp shop and analyze the competitive landscape to keep our assortments ahead of the market
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with merchandising, sales, and licensing teams to ensure designs meet customer and licensor requirements
What You Bring:
  • Proven experience designing sleepwear (loungewear, pajama sets, sleep separates); licensed apparel experience a strong plus
  • Deep understanding of sleepwear fabrications, trims, construction, and fit
  • A strong merchandising skillset — you understand what the customer needs and how to build an assortment that sells
  • Expertise developing samples with overseas partners and communicating clear, accurate design intent
  • Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop; strong CAD and presentation skills
  • Sharp eye for trend, color, and print, backed by disciplined market analysis
  • Excellent organization and communication; able to manage multiple programs on tight calendars
  • Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design or related field, or equivalent experience
  • Why IML:Work on some of the most iconic brands and franchises in the world
  • High-impact role with direct visibility to major retail programs
  • Collaborative, entrepreneurial team culture in our NYC office
To apply, please submit your resume and portfolio. Isaac Morris Ltd. is an equal opportunity employer.
