“I know the fashion industry is a very competitive one. I can see that first hand as I share the classroom with a very talented group of young designers. However, I can say that I have tried a few things in life, have lived in few places in the world, learnt a few languages, made mistakes and also made great decisions. I know the path is still long and unknown but I am happy to walk it and see what the future brings"

Sofia has certainly been doing it right; receiving a scholarship to showcase my designs in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney with Undress Runways 2015“¦ it was so surreal to see my whole first collection in the catwalk. I´m not going to lie, I was super nervous and I thought I was going to pass out but I got great feedback and those experiences do motivate you to keep going.
