High Wycombe, United Kingdom MINT VELVET Full time

Garment Technologist

High Wycombe, office-based

Mint Velvet began when founders Liz Houghton and Lisa Agar-Rea set out to create an unfailingly chic collection of contemporary, great quality staples and elevated fits that they felt were missing from their wardrobes. Feeling frustrated that they couldn’t find anything they wanted to wear, or the great customer service they craved, they started fusing relaxed comfort with glamorous yet wearable fashion trends. Relaxed Glamour was born.

We want to be a force for good and are committed to becoming a more circular and responsible business, from the fabrics we choose to our considered processes.
