Update on John Partridge Interning



I thought i would give you an update with what i have been doing this last month at John Partridge...

We are finally getting round to putting stock in the 'Design Emporium' at Kilver Court, everyone seems really excited as the range will be stocked along side Hunter wellys! (a personal favourite)

I have also been working on the visual merchandising of the factory shop layout. The managers, Nigel and Kim have given myself and another intern, Megan, the free run (within reason) to put our ideas down and plan the new shop layout. New brands have been coming into John Partridge such as Ashwood Leather, Zatchel and Welligogs so the idea is to have different sections of the shop for the different brands is key.
The above images are some of the designs for the new layout.

Recently I have also helped to put together a questionnaire for the Shooters Ball this Friday at Alrewas Hayes. There will be 250 guests attending who will be entering the competition to design their fantasy jacket using the questionnaire created. Part of my role within this was to select the tweed materials which would be used for the jackets.

John Partridge have also just signed a contract with a well known shop which will be socking John Partridge knitwear and bags. I have been given the opportunity to design the company a new back pack which I am extremely excited about!

When i can say more, i will!
