Welsh-born and Central Saint Martins-trained, Sophia Lewis has spent her career in fashion, from Jil Sander to more than twenty years at Closed. She now leads creative direction and brand strategy at Ain Amor, and is increasingly involved in mentoring and collaboration. She is also the author of Dear Doris, a cookbook inspired by her Welsh grandmother.
