Anadia T. was created by Anna Sciarrino, Diana Sieja and Teri Clemente...put the first part of those first names together and that is the genesis of the company’s name. Put the attitudes, beliefs and visions of those first names together, and that is the genesis of the company’s style. All three of us have our own perspectives – ideas and opinions that come from our own varied life experiences, which serve as a creative well for our designs. We share a common heritage (Sicilian) and two of us are sisters although the three of us form a “sisterhood.”
Anadia T. is a shared dream via personal vision. We began our journey with a denim jacket (which is still “launch-pending!”) Not just any jacket, mind you, but one with the powerful image of the Virgin Mary on the back. These very jackets gave birth to our illuminating wax lanterns. Using the same imagery, we transformed each jacket’s unique style to a sculpted wax lantern. Then we decided to add rich leather pillows dripping with chains and studs to the mix...oddly enough, creating decorative and fashionable flip-flops was never on our creative agenda! It was actually an idea born from necessity as Teri couldn’t last all day in heels at the trade shows so she reverted to decorating her flip-flops with outlandish embellishments! And that is how the decorated flip-flop came about! We started making lots of different designs and before we knew it people were ordering them by the dozens!
Each Anadia T. flip-flop is hand sewn using the highest quality ribbons and materials available. Our embellishments are custom designed by us and are not available anywhere else. We offer over 30 different designs as our goal is to appeal to every everyone’s individual taste. From rock-n-roll to bridal, we feel we have something for everyone! We hope you have as much fun wearing our flip-flops as we have had in designing them!
We sincerely appreciate your business and salute all of you with discriminating taste!
