Sustainable Scarves from Sophia Costas

Fair trade. Hand-crafted. Sustainable.

Sophia Costas is a New York City based company making a global statement through the use of fashion. Mia Berglund, owner and designer, found her passion for fashion growing up in Sweden and opening a family-owned clothing boutique, Flying A, in Sweden and Denmark. Moving to New York City in 1998, Mia introduced her Swedish casual luxury boutique to the USA. While managing her boutique, Mia had the opportunity to travel and through her adventures discovered a new-found love in textile designs. Thus, Sophia Costas was born and she began designing ethically traded and environmentally sustainable scarves.

Sophia Costas actively supports several charitable causes, one of the charity organizations being the Azahar Foundation of which Mia is a cofounder. Being an NGO, the Azahar Foundation focuses on mentoring non-violent conflict resolution to youth in Cambodia through art and yoga. To learn more about the Azahar Foundation, click here.
