  • Live, Love, Laugh - with Sophie Darling
    Mar 7 2025

    Brighton maker, artist, business woman and entrepreneur Sophie Darling joins us for a fascinating chat about sustainability and slow fashion, describing her creative process and how she creates her signature hand-printed jackets, which are all art pieces in themselves.

    Sophie describes how a surprise trip to Mississippi nurtured her creativity when she was young, but that it wasn’t until she’d done a screen-printing course that she found her passion, leading to a hugely successful label Kimchi with her friend Holly Atelier. Now running a creative hub in her Brighton studio, Sophie does workshops and feels passionately about nurturing younger creative talent. Unable to wear rings anymore, Sophie shows us her lovely necklaces. A (possibly Tiffany) silver locket bottle for perfume on a chain gifted by her father to her mother and now has been passed onto Sophie’s daughter. The funny story behind her wedding ring with braille on the outside because ‘Love is Blind’, as well as a beautiful ‘Darling’ necklace, which is a collaboration with a local tattoo artist and self-taught jeweller James Robinson. She says that it’s her resilience, determination and passion that has seen her through. Inspiring, funny, lively and yet very down to earth, Sophie continues to thrive creatively. Find out more on her website, sophiedarling.com, catch her on Insta @sophie_darling_. She runs an open studio once a month and will be part of the open studios in May for Brighton festival.
