About Us

What is important to us?

Sofia Tsereteli - Mindful Couture

Based in Italy, Sofia Tsereteli is an independent and sought-after artisanal fashion designer creating timeless limited-edition collections.


With a passion for Italian couture and a romantic Georgian heritage, her designs capture a love for feminine elegance and commitment to fine couture details.

Working with our small team, each of our pieces are handmade-to-order in luxury Italian fabrics just for you.

When you choose one of our designs, you are not just investing in a piece of cloth but investing in a piece of art.

Our aim is to design collections that feel special and collectible, while remaining easy to wear.

Beauty

We believe that beauty in all it’s forms is important. Whether it is in your home, in nature or in the pieces you choose to wear – beauty feeds our soul. We only choose what we love and truly believe are beautiful pieces to be part of our collections. 

Couture

We have a passion and respect for couture skills, and a commitment to maintaining the highest standards of our craft. Our handmade designs are created fully in-house by our small team of skilled tailors in our beautiful boutique studio in Padua’s Garden City district.

Our Relationships

We want to share our passion for beautiful clothing with you. Our relationship and sharing some joy matters deeply to us. We want to meet to talk about fashion and life, to help, to have coffee in person or together virtually. Positive relationships make everyone’s life better.

Our Choices

Our choices matter as consumers, and in how we choose to create. We are a ‘slow fashion’ brand. We make an investment in our pieces through our locally sourced fabrics, our skills and our time. Our pieces are designed and made to be loved, cherished and passed on to others for years to come.
