What are the responsibilities and job description for the Gen Z Fashion Board Internship Opportunity Job at Avalon Apparel in California position at Avalon Apparel?
Are you a social media savvy Gen Zer interested in all things fashion, pop-culture, and trends? Are you interested in having your ideas and opinions translated into clothing designs that may be sold at retailers across the country? If yes, then Avalon Apparel is looking for your help on their national “Fashion Board” .
Avalon Apparel is a full-service women’s apparel design house based in Los Angeles that designs and produces private label garments sold at some of America’s largest retailers. You might even own a garment from the likes of Nordstrom, Macy’s, or Target that started as an Avalon design!
Avalon developed the concept of the “Fashion Board” as a way to engage with prospective apparel consumers, ensuring that the designs Avalon offers to their retail partners are exactly what their customers want. Starting as a small idea tapping into the networks of current employees, Avalon has expanded the program nationally and is always looking to expand even further across all customer demographics. And that’s where you come in!
Avalon is looking for qualified applicants at universities across the country to serve as “Fashion Board” interns to help us design exactly what the consumer is shopping for.
Responsibilities :
- Be an active member on our Instagram where we post daily polls of outfits like “this or that”, “love or hate”, etc., looking for immediate feedback for our design teams.

- Actively respond in our GroupMe chat when we ask opinions on trends and designs.
- Complete design-related GoogleForms when we send out.

The internship is open to any prospective major, although may be of specific interest to those pursuing degrees in Business, Marketing, Retail, Fashion Merchandising, or Fashion Design.
In addition to submitting your resume, we ask that you complete a quick project showcasing your understanding of Gen Z fashion so we can get a sense of your style and vibe!
