sophia reyes is an independent women's contemporary line based in the United States.
Designer Sophia Karen Reyes studied at Parsons School of Design in New York and at Loyola University
Chicago in Illinois. Her work is a reflection of her affinity for smart design, love of art, and prolific
imagination.
Sophia, an Illinois native, developed her interest in fashion design when she traded her Legos and
Matchbox cars (she was not the Barbie type) for an abandoned sewing machine in her parents' attic. She
spent her childhood experimenting with commercial patterns and taking classes at the local fabric store
with women 4 to 5 times her age. When her fascination with all aspects of fashion design pursued her at
Loyola, Sophia knew fashion design was not just a hobby, it was her calling. After graduating from Loyola
University with a B.B.A in finance, Sophia moved to New York to attend Parsons and to work in the fashion
industry.
