Anya Hindmarch is a British fashion accessories designer who founded her eponymous brand in London in 1987, building it into a globally recognised company of which she remains CEO. In 2024 she was appointed a Dame in the King's Birthday Honours for her services to fashion and business. If In Doubt, Wash Your Hair, her first book, was a Sunday Times bestseller in 2021. In it she draws on her experiences as a businesswoman, mother of five, and stepmother to share practical advice, reflections on confidence and creativity, and the small rituals — like washing your hair — that help navigate an overwhelmingly busy life.
