From Vintage to Vision: The Talent Behind Denim
Denim isn’t just having a moment—it’s having a full-fledged revival. From the resurgence of Y2K low-rise silhouettes to the timeless appeal of 90s straight-leg jeans, vintage-inspired denim is dominating summer collections and consumer closets alike. The energy around denim right now blends nostalgia with modern sensibilities, giving both designers and brands room to get creative.
What’s driving this comeback? A few things. First, the demand for sustainable fashion has pushed brands to explore archival styles and repurposed materials. Shoppers are thinking about longevity and how their clothes align with the planet. Vintage denim fits the bill—it’s durable, stylish, and inherently more sustainable when brands focus on reusing fabrics or recreating classic fits. At EB, we’ve seen a noticeable uptick in brands sourcing design talent with a deep understanding of vintage trends and circular design practices.
Then there’s the influence of streetwear. The line between street style and high fashion continues to blur, and denim plays a huge role in that crossover. Think oversized silhouettes, patchwork pieces, and reimagined trucker jackets. As fashion houses look to appeal to a younger audience, they’re pulling inspiration straight from the streets, and that means hiring designers and product developers who can interpret culture as much as style.
Brands like Mavi, Pistola, MOTHER Denim and 7 For All Mankind are perfect examples of denim done right, merging fit, fabric, and trend with heritage craftsmanship. We’re also seeing newer names enter the space with vintage-inspired launches that offer a fresh take on old-school looks, often paired with inclusive sizing, eco-friendly washes, and modern marketing tactics.
For design and marketing talent, this denim resurgence means opportunity. Whether it’s working on capsule collections, spearheading influencer campaigns, or diving into brand storytelling, there’s room for creativity and impact.
If your brand is leaning into vintage fashion or gearing up for a denim-focused launch, we can help you find the creative talent who gets it—from denim specialists and fashion designers to marketing leads and brand storytellers.
Employer Branding for Holiday Hiring
With peak hiring in full swing for the holiday season, brands are competing for more than just consumer attention, they’re competing for top talent. Having a strong employer brand can be the difference between attracting high-quality candidates or losing them to a more engaging competitor.
It starts with culture.
The best retail teams are built on more than skill, they’re built on shared values. Showcasing your company culture through social media, your careers page, or even employee spotlights gives potential hires a glimpse into what it’s really like to work on your team. Whether it's behind-the-scenes moments, team celebrations, or purpose-driven initiatives, that visibility helps attract people who align with your mission.
Perks go beyond pay.
Competitive wages are important, but retail professionals are also looking for more holistic support. Perks like wellness programs, flexible scheduling, mental health resources, and career development opportunities show that your brand invests in its people, not just their output. During the busy holiday season, perks that prioritize well-being and flexibility can make all the difference in attracting and keeping talent.
Let your employees tell the story.
Employee advocacy is one of the most trusted forms of brand communication. When team members share positive experiences on LinkedIn, Glassdoor, or even TikTok, it builds credibility that no paid ad can replicate. Encouraging your staff to be part of your holiday hiring story not only supports recruiting, which also reinforces a healthy internal culture.
Transparency builds trust.
From clear job descriptions to open communication around compensation and performance expectations, transparency is key. Candidates are more likely to apply, and accept offers from companies that communicate openly. That trust pays off in stronger hires and better retention, even beyond the holiday rush.
At EB we help retail brands find the talent that fits not just the role, but the culture. If you’re looking to level up your employer brand and attract top-tier retail professionals this holiday season, our team is ready to support your next chapter. The time is now for holiday hiring, connect with us!

Social commerce continues to push these boundaries. Platforms like Instagram and TikTok have become more than just marketing channels—they're shopping destinations. Designers now have to think about vertical video, interactive features, and branded content that feels native to each platform.
Trends in eCommerce design are shifting toward minimalist layouts, immersive storytelling, and mobile-first experiences. Product pages are clean, content is tailored to each screen size, and brand visuals are elevated to mirror the in-store experience—only now, it's happening entirely online.
