Sofia Colasante, born in 1991 in the province of Salerno, is passionate about
Art in all of its forms and since 2015 she has been designing women’s garments creating collections that bear her signature. Sofia attended the
Fashion Design course at
Istituto Marangoni Milano and completed her first academic path in 2012 winning the
“Best Technology Concept” award, which made her a renowned emerging designer in the main
European capitals of
Fashion. Meanwhile, she decided to deepen her knowledge of marketing in the
luxury sector, therefore she enrolled in a
Fashion Business course at
Istituto Marangoni Paris, where she got a scholarship to attend the
Fashion Design Womenswear Master’s at Istituto Marangoni London. In the same years, besides studying she also worked as a freelancer with
Bulgari – for whom she has developed two lines for the staff’s uniforms, including the latest 2016 line, adopted in the
Bulgari boutiques around the world – and, between 2014 and 2015, she also collaborated with
Hussein Chalayan and
Erdem in London, where she had the opportunity to get in touch with the world of product development and production. She came back to Italy in 2015 to start her namesake brand Sofia Colasante, launching
‘Back to the Future’, her first SS 2016 collection.
