About Annagail

Designer, Angelique Yuen has design in her soul. She grew up with an architect father, and a sewing teacher mother. She went to the Art Institute of Vancouver and studied fashion and retail marketing management. With over 10 years working her way up in the fashion industry she decided to start her own line of high quality garments, which is how Annagail came to life. Anna and Gail are two very important women in my life that paved a path for me as a young girl. Both extremely hard working women. Anna, my Oma. She was my fathers mom, she lived through the second World War in Holland (born in Breda) where she saw and experienced so much loss. She had an amazing spirit, she was patient, she was determined and it was her who I owe a lot of my work ethics to. Gail was the older sister on my moms side of the family, she radiated pure beauty, inside and out. We lost her too soon due to mental health. She fought hard, and was a great aunt to my sisters and I. Bringing these two names together was a way for me to bring out the strength in my background. Being a Dutch, German, Polish and East Indian Canadian. I drew inspiration through my European and Indian decent. This brand represents the strong and powerful women inside of me while drawing the beauty of my roots into this brand. Looking back on my journey, Annagail has been a thought in the back of my mind since I was a child. Read their story
