Our History
Sophie has been serving Houston from the mid 70's and it all started in her garage. It is an amazing story of a young immigrant girl who came to the states in pursuit of a better life. It all began back in a small village in Greece when she showed an interest in sewing and spent every moment she could learning from the town seamstress. Once she found her way to the states through Ellis Island the summer of 1956, She used her trade to help her survive in this new country with a different culture and language. Remarkably, she was resilient and ambitious for a young woman and not only survived, she thrived.
Sophie worked tailoring part time and working in a factory. She later married, moved to Houston, and began working out of her house for designers, creating window treatments and bedding. As she built her home business, Sophie realized the value of her skill and so in the early 80's she decided to take the American dream one step further and opened up her own shop.
And so the story goes for 30+ more years.
