Sophie - Founder/Owner

During a certain pandemic that changed our modern world in 2020 I had an idea.

"2021 is going to be the year, I'm going to change my career!"

What an CRAZY amazing idea!

Yet here I am - instead of working in a Costume Department in TV and Theatre I am the owner of my own bridal boutique!

And I can’t wait to meet you, hear all about your love story and see you fall in love all over again choosing your dreamy wedding dress!

​

Predating graduating with BA (Hons) from LIPA studying Theatre and Performance Design, I come from a sewing background. This comes in handy as we chat through your fabric choices and I can confidently guide with your alterations options.

​

Upon researching before opening 130, I didn't want to just offer beautiful bridal gowns, I wanted to shine light on some amazing sustainable designers beautiful creations.

By the way, vegan silk, it's a thing. I KNOW!

​

So opening 130 Atelier on my 5th anniversary (14.08.21) seemed the perfect date. With the help of my amazing boyfriend (ta darlin’) I am so proud of how far 11 High Street has come - especially when I see old fit out photos of the lilac walls of the Chronicle Newspaper shopfront “From headlines to hemlines!”

 

With all the fantastic options in the boutique, you won't want your luxurious appointment to end!

Being highly committed to each bride I want to make sure you walk out of my boutique with more inspiration for your wedding. Bonus points knowing you have chosen a badass outfit!

​

With help from my Mama on busy Saturday’s (thank you Mama!) we aim to make you feel fabulous for the day you say "I Do!"

I can't wait to hear about your lucky Fiancé!

​

See you soon!
