Anna Hovet Designs was founded in 2009 by designer, Anna Hovet.  Born and raised in Grand Forks, North Dakota, Anna moved to Chicago in 2003 to attend the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she earned her BFA.
Anna’s determination to be a well-rounded designer led her to Chicago’s well-known store Akira, where she worked as a stylist and fashion show coordinator while in college. After graduating, she was hired by Kids Headquarters where she designed layette for Ecko, Calvin Klein, Kenneth Cole, and Target.
Due to the economy, Anna was laid off from her job and started her own company in January 2009. The young contemporary collection is available online and at multiple retailers throughout the Midwest.
In May 2009 Anna was selected as a Designer in Residence at the Chicago Fashion Incubator - A City of Chicago sponsored program to help fashion designers start a business.
Her designs can be seen on actress/singer Jennifer Hudson and have been featured in several publications including Lucky Magazine and the Chicago Tribune.
