Sofia Richie | Lionel Richie’s Daughter | Model

Sofia Richie is probably not the first person who comes to mind when you hear the surname “Richie.” Instead, you might think of Lionel Richie, the rapper, or Nicole Richie, the reality TV star and fashion designer— but that’s about to change. Sofia Richie, Lionel’s daughter, and Nicole’s younger sister, is truly coming into her own, and she’s making quite a splash. As a model and a budding fashion designer, she’s slowly but steadily taking over the fashion world.

Sofia Richie has strong fashionista roots. Since she was a little girl, the young model and fashion designer has aspired to be a fashion icon. She told PopSugar that she was instantly smitten by fashion. Sofia didn’t have to wait long to realize her ambitions. She debuted in Teen Vogue at the age of 14 in 2012, and by the age of 15, she had earned her first modeling contract and made investments with Mary Grace Swimwear. In the end, the young Richie has created a career out of her modeling passion that still resonates to this day.
