INTERVIEW WITH DEBRA SIMOES
Proud to innovate
for the modern woman
The North Face Senior Product Merchandise Manager Debra Simoes sheds light on the meticulous process behind building the Women’s Spring 18 collection.
‘Our research and development team works closely with our female athletes to make sure their specific needs are addressed. Women’s products must perform as well as men’s - without compromise.’
The Women’s Spring 18 collection was built around freedom of movement, says Debra: ‘The goal was to create products that functioned well and looked good, but also allow the wearer to move effortlessly.’
For example, Debra highlights The North Face’s Inlux products: ‘They have the right technical properties to be used on a hike, but move seamlessly with you on your return from the mountains back to town.’
Exclusively designed for women
Enabling the
next generation of
adventurous girls
We have joined forces with The Outward Bound Trust to introduce an entire generation of girls to the benefits of outdoor exploration.
With the support of The North Face’s NeverStop Community, together we will lead over 1600 young women from all walks of life on adventures in the wild - from venturing out to a crag to learn the basics of rock climbing, hiking on foot deep into the mountains, to kayaking amongst seals.
"Our organisations share a vision to get people from all walks of life into the outdoors as we know the power of adventure and exploration."
Outward Bound Trust, Chief Executive, Nick Barrett
