Sonia Querin
Sonia Querin is a personal style consultant at La Closette. Her undeniable French flair and passion for the arts, dance, theatre, music and literature colours her world and that of her clients. For Sonia, personal style is more than just clothing – it’s about embracing the language of fashion to express one’s true authentic self. A great shoe, a unique accessory, a wink, a smile, a je ne sais quoi that simply makes you, you. Her time spent abroad has helped her develop a keen eye for carefully crafted, quality yet wearable attire. A garment’s cut, proportions and fit are the standards she looks for and celebrates when working with her clients. Moreover, Sonia instills in her clients the belief that joy travels when we feel confident and strong in our fashion choices. That feeling of empowerment translates into everything we do, say or share. Dressing can be a joyful and elevating experience when we approach it with both passion and an open mind. Prior to joining La Closette, Sonia nurtured her love of fashion and retail by representing several luxury brands, in addition to holding senior merchandising and consulting roles. Most recently, she was founder and owner of an online boutique shop where she married her entrepreneurial spirit with her love of design. According to Sonia, never doubt the passion of the heart…and the power of a great red lipstick.
