OUR STORY

About The Brand

Sophia Bognem is a luxury fashion house established in 2016 in Abu Dhabi United Arab Emirates. The brand embodies elegance, sophistication, and timeless style, with a dedication to exquisite craftsmanship and attention to details. Our brand exemplifies the fusion of artistry, innovation, and impeccable quality, offering a unique and unforgettable experience for the modern discerning clientele.

Sustainability at Sophia Bognem

At Sophia Bognem, we believe sustainability is not only about minimizing environmental impact, but also about building a fashion house rooted in responsibility, fairness, and care. While our focus is on creating timeless eveningwear that embodies elegance, we recognize the importance of aligning our practices with values that contribute positively to both people and planet.

  1. Circularity through resale
    We created a brand whose designs are timeless and versatile, making them desirable in the secondary market. By encouraging resale and extending the lifespan of our garments, we support a more circular fashion economy and reduce unnecessary waste.
  2. Local footprint
    As a UAE-based label, we keep production and sales primarily within the region. This limited need for international travel and shipping reduces our carbon footprint while allowing us to stay close to our community and clients.
  3. Conscious flagship design
    When designing our flagship stores, we prioritized reuse by incorporating recycled marble, glass, partitions, and MEP products. This approach highlights our commitment to reducing construction waste while still reflecting the sophistication of our brand.
  4. Ethical employment
    We believe sustainability also extends to people. Our staff is treated according to the highest standards set by MOHRE, ensuring that fairness, well-being, and ethical employment are at the core of our operations.
  5. Sustainable expansion plans
    Looking ahead, we are committed to expanding responsibly by following strict guidelines on transportation, material use, and human resources. Our goal is to scale thoughtfully, without compromising on sustainability or integrity.

Our Goals

  • To merge elegance with responsibility by creating eveningwear that is both timeless in design and adaptable for circular use, ensuring our garments live beyond a single season.
  • To set an example in the region by showing that a luxury fashion brand can grow sustainably—balancing refined aesthetics with ethical practices, conscious sourcing, and social impact.
