Anya spoke to British Vogue yesterday about her admiration for the iconic Margaret Thatcher:

‘Anya Margaret Thatcher played a big part in inspiring me to start my business and is something of a unique British style icon. The way she dressed always fascinated me as her clothes were so professional and feminine yet never detracted from her. Designing handbags for such an inspirational and iconic woman was definitely one of my proudest moments’.
