Argyle Haus of Apparel, a full-service cut-and-sew manufacturer based in Los Angeles, CA, hired Sheila Martinez as VP of Operations.
Martinez brings over 20 years of experience in the fashion industry, spanning technical design, apparel development, production, and retail marketing. In 2013, she founded U & I Brand Development, a fashion design and development firm where she led product creation and guided brands from concept through execution.
In her new role at Argyle Haus, Martinez will oversee all operations across the company. She will work closely with Houman Salem, CEO of Argyle Haus, to support the company’s growth and strengthen its position as a partner for fashion startups and established brands.
“Bringing Sheila onto the team is a major milestone for Argyle,” said Salem. “We’ve reached a level of growth where we are able to attract and bring on seasoned executives with deep industry expertise. Sheila’s background across design, development and production aligns perfectly with our vertically integrated model. She understands what it takes to bring a product to market successfully, and that perspective is invaluable as we continue to scale.”
Founded in 2014 with a factory in the San Fernando Valley and a showroom in downtown Los Angeles, Argyle Haus of Apparel provides end-to-end services including design, development, manufacturing, and strategic consulting. The company reports “it has helped launch over 1,000 fashion brands since its founding.”
“I am excited to join Argyle Haus at such a pivotal moment,” said Martinez. “The company’s commitment to supporting emerging brands and maintaining high standards of quality and execution is something I strongly believe in. I look forward to contributing to its continued expansion and operational excellence.”
