1975 • in an Edwardian shop premises, womenswear was designed & made in Grimsby from cloth that travelled from far and wide. During the lifespan of the business the need to become more commercial had replaced the ‘one off’ designs. By 2002 the designer had had enough and Anywear closed its doors. Materials :linen and recycled clothing fabrics, cotton and linen threads Techniques: hand and machine stitch, appliqué, piecing, drawing Size: 139 x 87.5 x 2.5 cms
