About me

Hi! I’m Sophia Marie.

Raised in San Francisco and now based in New York, my artistry is rooted in textile and fashion design inspired by nature, personal experience, and material exploration. My practice blends traditional techniques with modern innovation, spanning hand-painted textiles, print design, draping, and digital design development, while maintaining a sustainable, thoughtful approach.

Since 2022, I’ve been working as a freelance textile designer developing prints, color stories, and CADs across fashion and interiors, as well as developing full fashion collections that involve trend analysis and material research, design development, sourcing, and production. Alongside this, I continue to build my namesake studio practice by creating limited collections and made-to-order pieces rooted in intentional craftsmanship, storytelling, and transformation, designed to bring beauty, emotion, and depth into everyday life.

Qualifications include: 

Advanced Fashion Business Certificate, Fashion Business Institute (Sydney)
Advanced Fashion Design Certificate, City College of San Francisco
BFA in Textile Design, Academy of Art University (Presidential Scholarship)
Plein Air Painting Residency in Florence, Italy
