Anya’s sustainability initiatives include ‘I’m Not A Plastic Bag’, ‘I Am A Plastic Bag’, The Universal Bag and the biodegradable Return to Nature collection, reflecting her belief in ‘progress, not perfection’.

She was made a Dame in 2024 for services to fashion and business, following a CBE in 2017. She is also the author of the Sunday Times bestseller If In Doubt, Wash Your Hair.
