“A dedicated Anglophile, Valenti named the company after Anderson and Sheppard, his favoured Savile Row maker. By the late 1980s, Anderson’s was ready to develop from a factory to its own brand, and to build it around what would become an iconic design.
The launch of the multi-coloured woven belt made clear Anderson’s craft and commitment to innovation. “We understood that this was really new,” says Riccardo Valenti, CEO of the family owned company. “It stated immediately the personality and character of the brand. It was fresh and modern but also authentic because it was made in our factory.”
