Sophie Meldrim Coy Shonnard was considered "the most beautiful belle in the South" in 1910 - when she went to London to be presented at the royal court. From that time through her notable career as co-owner of the Chez Ninon high-fashion salon in New York City, Sophie surrounded herself with a circle of powerful Southern women, whose charm and influence became known across the globe.
