Cassandra Leigh
Cassandra is acquainted with Ana.

David Reyes
Dave is acquainted with Ana. She seems to be quite fond of him, and describes him as "my beloved David" when Cassandra and Sam stop by the boutique before the L.A.R.A. gala. She explains that the two of them have a "quid pro quo," but that they don't have as close of a relationship as Dave and Cassandra.

Stacy De Luca
Stacy De Luca is her twin sister.

Samantha Massey
At first, Ana treats Sam with scorn, describing her as a "down-home country mouse" and saying that Sam couldn't pull off wearing her designs. If you choose to buy one of her dresses, Ana takes a liking to Sam and asks her to become her muse. She apologizes to Sam and it's up to you to decide if Sam forgives her or not. If Sam forgives her, Ana will appear in Chapter 15 and shortly talk to Sam. If Sam doesn't forgive her, they will become rivals and Ana won't appear in Chapter 15.
