Taos Footwear, the womens footwear brand based in Torrance, CA, promoted Angilina Douglas to director of design and development.
Taos is thrilled to have Angilina on our team, said Bill Langrell, Chief Operating Officer, Having a female head designer for a womens footwear brand is just smart. She brings extensive knowledge in design and production and knows the Taos consumer. She undoubtedly will be a huge asset as we continue to build the Taos brand.
Having graduated from the University of San Francisco with a degree in Fashion Design, Douglas brings many years of footwear experience to the position, including stints with Deckers Outdoor, Oakley, Teva, Ahnu, The North Face, and Warnaco before accepting the manager of design and development at Taos in 2011. Douglas is now director, based at the Taos headquarters in southern California and will oversee and direct all aspects of the brands design initiatives.
I feel extremely fortunate to be working with a young, growing brand like Taos Footwear, says Douglas. Taos Footwear truly embodies the lifestyle its name reflects. We love to create footwear that is not only comfortable, but beautiful so our consumer can enjoy all aspects of her life. These purchasers are responding in kind and this year promises to be exciting for the brand.
