About Anne Roose
Anne Roose was a fashion designer who helped reinvent Welsh wool with her elegant contemporary designs inspired by Celtic tradition.
She was instrumental in saving the rare-breed Jacob sheep, working with Araminta, Lady Aldington and the Holywell Textile Mill in north Wales to transform the distinctive but rough fleece into beautiful cloth in natural tones, which culminated in her celebrated Anna Roose Jacob Collection (she used Anna as her professional first name).
