Sign in: https://www.twine.net/signup_ 23 July 2026 CNK Consulting Re: Application for Head of Fashion Design (HCM) Dear Hiring Manager, I am writing to express my strong interest in the Head of Fashion Design role in Ho Chi Minh City. With 10+ years of experience in fashion design and product development, including my current role as Assistant Manager and Head of Design (Casual Wear) at Brandix Apparel Solutions, I bring exactly the combination of design leadership, commercial execution, and team management this role calls for, and I am actively planning my relocation to Vietnam to pursue this next step in my career. In my current role, I direct a design division end to end: setting seasonal creative strategy, coordinating with international buyers and cross-functional teams across R&D, Sourcing, and Merchandising, and owning garment quality from concept through to launch. Over the course of my career at Brandix and EAM Maliban Textiles, I have led and mentored design teams, built stronger design processes, and consistently delivered trend-driven, commercially successful collections for US and European markets. I have also trained juniors in trend forecasting and technical design work that maps directly onto the team building and SOP responsibilities outlined in your job description. A distinguishing part of my background is 3D and virtual product development. I am proficient in CLO3D and Browzwear (Browzwear VStitcher 101/201/301 certified), and I have used these tools across multiple roles, including a remote engagement with a US-based brand to cut physical sampling, shorten development timelines, and support more sustainable workflows. I believe this technical depth would help strengthen sample approval rates and speed to launch for your team. My core design experience spans casual and performance wear in woven apparel for international brands including Calvin Klein, GAP, Banana Republic, Ted Baker, Tommy Hilfiger, Amazon, and Lacoste. This has included numerous opportunities to travel to the US, India, and Australia to represent my organization at brand design meetings and present seasonal collections. I hold an MBA from London Metropolitan University and a Post Graduate Diploma in Strategic Management, which have sharpened the commercial and operational side of my design leadership. I am fluent in English, comfortable working with demanding stakeholders under pressure, and genuinely excited about relocating to Vietnam and contributing to your brand's expansion across the US, Thailand, and Southeast Asia. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience aligns with your needs. Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to hearing from you.
