Anya Hindmarch

Synopsis
Radio programme. Fashion designer and businesswoman Anya Hindmarch discusses her life and chooses eight records to take to the mythical island.
Given her first handbag by her mother at 16, Hindmarch knew that her future lay in fashion. At 18 she went to Florence to immerse herself in Italian style, and ended up deep in the world of Florentine leather, getting samples made up of a duffel bag she’d spotted. An initial run of 500 bags sold out. Fast forward 25 years and her eponymous fashion business is globally successful with her designs much sought after.
