Annie S Intimates

From an early age it was clear that Ana Segura’s assertiveness, unbridled expressiveness and passionate approach to life would quickly carve for her a space in history as one of the most passionate, creative and dedicated designers of our generation.

Born in Puerto Rico to Dominican parents, Ana’s embracing of her talent can be attributed to being part of a family encompassing three generations of seamstresses. As she continued to hone her craft and mature as an artist, her evolving ambitions lead her to the well-known High School of Fashion Industries in New York and then to Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida where she graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Fashion Design. Shortly after college Segura’s vision would lead her to lend her talent to Nike’s New York City flagship retail operation as a Visual Merchandiser. 

Her tenure at Nike provided her with a canvas to continue to hone her passion, creativity and brilliant design sense. While balancing the responsibilities set forth by a full time job, Ana never wavered from her vision and in 2005, wanting to remain true to her independent spirit, her family’s traditions and her Bronx roots she launched her first label, Anne S. Limited. Months later her increasing exposure to local and national media lead to her first collection’s debut on the Tyra Banks Show in February of 2006.

While athletic wear provided a canvas for her to express her creativity, Intimate apparel provided Segura with a venue to convert that expression into creation. After the debut of her Fall/Winter 2006 collection, she moved on from Nike and soon developed six collections under the newly conceived Annie S. Intimates Label. Included in the Annie S. Intimates label are couture Black Label as well as her new Ready-to-Wear Silver Label set to launch in 2010. Segura’s distinctive signature style brings forth a uniquely creative vision to the intimate apparel industry that pays reverence to rebellious times in fashion history. Annie S. Intimate’s couture Black Label preserves the femininity and sophistication of the Baroque, Rococo and Victorian eras while rejecting the rigidity and conservatism of those times. The result is a tangible sultriness and a distinctively feminine style aimed at a sophisticated, uninhibited and provocative clientele.

Segura’s one of a kind, made to order designs have been sold in New York, Los Angeles and London and will undoubtedly continue thrive in the coming years.
