History[edit]
The company was founded in 1962 by Andres Sardá and the brand in 1980. The creation of the company was at a time that the pieces of underwear were made with almost orthopedic functional criteria, regardless of aesthetics. Sardá opted for comfort and attractiveness. Soon, in 1965, began exports to France with clients such as Galeries Lafayette and Printemps.
In 1970 expanded the range of products by adding swimming clothes. In 1995 his daughter, Nuria Sardá, joined the design team led by Andrés Sarda. And now she is in charge of creative direction.
The group Van de Velde N.V. bought Eurocorset SA, owner of the trademark Andrés Sardá, with the agreement that the family Sardá would still create the collections and would remain the headquarters of operations in Barcelona.[2]
