About

I am a multilingual fashion designer with a strong foundation in ready-to-wear design, product development, and operations. As founder and creative director of SOFIA CHRISTOF, I have extensive experience managing the full collection development process—from initial concept through pre-industrialization—working closely with cross-functional teams, ateliers, and suppliers. I combine meticulous technical execution with creative vision to translate narratives into product.
Driven by craftsmanship, innovation, and precision, I am passionate about advocating product storytelling and aligning my designs with the brand’s savoir-faire. I thrive in roles where I can lead product development, manage supplier relationships, and deliver collections that balance technical quality with poetic aesthetics.
