About SLS

Meet the Designer & Artist

Sophia L Scinto

Sophia Scinto is a fashion designer, illustrator, and creative entrepreneur based in Connecticut, just outside of New York City. She is the founder of SLS, a made-to-order clothing and jewelry brand where every garment is specially tailored to the person wearing it. Guided by the motto “Step into the luxury of SLS handmade pieces,” Sophia creates a personal and luxurious experience for each client. Her designs are bold, edgy, and elegant. Every piece is handcrafted by her, with meticulous attention to detail from concept to completion.

In addition to her clothing brand, Sophia creates under “Artwork by Sophia”, producing original art that ranges from fashion illustrations to realistic portraits. Each piece is individually crafted, showcasing her technical skill, personal expression, and love of color and texture. While SLS focuses on wearable designs, her artwork allows her creativity to explore a broader range of mediums and subjects.

Known for her warmth, energy, and unwavering creativity, Sophia approaches every project with intention and passion. Her studio is a space where fashion and art coexist. It is filled with color, texture, and movement. Every sketch, fabric, and finished piece is infused with her personal vision, hands-on craftsmanship, and a commitment to delivering an elevated, unforgettable experience to her clients.

Every piece is handmade by me from start to finish. I intentionally do not outsource to factories because I believe in craftsmanship, quality, and creating thoughtfully made pieces instead of mass production. It’s a lost art. Prioritizing sustainability through hands-on, intentional craftsmanship is incredibly important to me.
