Their partnership lasted until 2007, when the label disappeared further to the decision of their business partner, Humana Cultura y Comunicación.
In 2008 she launched alone a new ready-to-wear label, Ana Locking, which also received accolades: in 2008, the Premio L'Oréal and in 2009, the Premio Mujer Fun Fearless Female, awarded by the Spanish Cosmopolitan.
At the end of 2020, she won the 2020 National Fashion Design Award for "combining fashion design and social pulse, connecting with contemporary artistic movements and practices.
