Retail Operations Coordinator

Retail Operations Coordinator

At La Ligne (http://www.lalignenyc.com), we believe in the universal appeal of the stripe—always classic, forever chic. With a nod to its iconic roots, we created La Ligne to give women a few new (and unexpected) ways to wear it. La Ligne offers versatile clothing collections inspired by the line with endless styling options. Classic designs crafted in quality materials with staying power sold directly to customers through our website, retail stores, and wholesale partners.

 

We’re inspired by all kinds of self-expression. We design everyday necessities and the occasional splurge—the kind of clothing we would want to wear. We prize functionality, but we also want you to have fun while you’re at it. In other words, if you can’t eat, dance, and drink in it, we won’t make it. And while some clothes stay and some go, we want to be the ones that stay awhile.
