About Us
Atelier Society is a revolutionary fitting service . Atelier Society eliminates provides fit feedback to customers sharing how the clothing item they are interested in will fit in person (too long, too short, too large in the waist, etc.), and offers fit accommodations through its just-in-time tailoring service, which allows apparel to be tailored before it arrives at customer’s doors.
Atelier Society ensures that when customers receive apparel, the apparel is precisely the size, fit, and length the customer expects.
Who We Are
We are friends who had a crazy idea: when you buy clothing, it should fit!
We've had successful careers, and have put those careers behind us to create a startup because of a sincere calling. We are fed up with the fit issues in the apparel industry and their negative impact on people and the environment. We have discovered a revolutionary solution that every single person we talk to wants us to use. We are committed to bringing Atelier Society to the world because we know we have struck gold with our innovative solution and we are the perfectly to bring this solution to market.
Our Founders
Sophie friedfeld-gebaide
CEO
Our CEO, Sophie, is currently pursuing a master's degree in environmental management at Yale, and seamlessly blends her fashion industry, communications, and sustainability expertise. Her background includes professional styling at MM LaFleur, managing social media for NGOs, and overseeing a U.S. Congressman's correspondence program. Sophie's dedication is unparalleled, driven by her personal experiences. In her words, "I left Capitol Hill two years ago not just because I have a black belt in shopping, but because I was fed up with how clothing fit me and I knew I wasn’t the only one. Since then, I have been working to perfect a solution to this problem so many of us face."
