Melbourne fashion designer and ex-Anna Campbell Assistant Director, Tommika Valente, has teamed up with friend, former colleague and manufacturing whizz, Angelo Evangelou, to co-found fashion label, Anto Apparel. Owned, designed and made in Melbourne, the collection is aimed at women of all ages, shapes and sizes, consciously designed, and locally sourced and manufactured at their studio in Reservoir.

Launched in January 2021, Anto Apparel, named after its two founders, offers sizes 8-20 for anyone aged 20 to 70, creating elegant, everyday clothing to suit a modern lifestyle without the expensive price tag.
