I, Sophie Springer, born in Vienna, studied fashion design in Florence and specialised in bags, for which I learned both the craft and the design.

Since 2004 I have owned and distributed my own collection of bags "Sophie Springer"; from design and cut to production, everything happens in Florence, where I have lived for more than 30 years.

For 15 years I have been teaching in English and Italian at various international fashion schools in this city; I give courses in drapery, pattern drawing, sewing and accessories.

Due to the Covid crisis I started to give online courses in 2020, which is a very interesting experience and challenge.
