Xanadu’s story began with Beatrice, whose childhood was filled with love, laughter, and loyal furry friends. Growing up, she often cradled her family’s beloved dogs while watching classic Snoopy cartoons. Years later in the UK, a chance encounter with a dog who bore an uncanny resemblance to Snoopy reignited her fondest memories. She adopted the dog, naming him Snoopy in honor of the cherished character from her past. Shortly after, Beatrice welcomed another dog into her life—Soufflé, a sweet and elegant companion whose name reflected her love of fine desserts.

As someone with an impeccable sense of fashion and a discerning eye for quality, Beatrice was determined to dress her dogs in clothing that matched their charm and sophistication. Yet she found herself frustrated by the limited options available—pet apparel and toys often fell short in style, comfort, and craftsmanship. Conversations with other pet owners revealed she was not alone in her search for better products. Inspired by this shared passion, Beatrice gathered a like-minded group of friends who also had furry companions and a deep appreciation for fashion. Among them were talented designers, including alumni from renowned fashion schools such as Central Saint Martins, whose backgrounds and expertise brought an unparalleled level of artistry to the project.

Over the years, the team’s quest for inspiration and the finest materials took them across more than 100 countries. From exploring the intricate patterns of Asian craftsmanship to discovering the timeless elegance of European fabrics, these global experiences shaped the foundation of Xanadu’s designs. This commitment to cultural diversity and exceptional quality ensures that every piece tells a story and reflects the beauty of our shared world.

Craftsmanship lies at the heart of Xanadu’s ethos. Our collections feature the finest materials, selected for their heritage and refinement. From Harris Tweed’s timeless charm and Linton Tweed’s storied elegance to Japan’s intricate Nishijin-ori silks, every fabric tells a story of tradition and quality. We draw upon the rich heritage of China’s Shu Brocade, the ethereal beauty of Southeast Asia’s Lotus Silk, and Germany’s exquisite wool and linen weaves. Further elevating our creations, we incorporate Vicuña from the Andes—celebrated for its luxurious softness and rarity—along with the world’s finest cashmere. Each material is carefully chosen not only for its beauty but also for its enduring quality.

 At Xanadu, each product undergoes years of meticulous development, from the initial fabric selection to the final stitch. Our team obsesses over every detail, blending traditional artisanal techniques with modern innovation. This devotion to hand-finishing, bespoke tailoring, and rigorous quality checks ensures every piece reflects the utmost refinement. By merging time-honored traditions with cutting-edge methods, Xanadu sets a new standard for luxury in pet lifestyle, creating masterpieces that enhance the bond between pets and their owners.
