Leeds-born global party brand launches swimwear and clothing line

Leeds-born party brand Candypants, famous for its pool parties at the W Hotel Dubai, brunches at the Habtoor Grand and boat parties in Marbella and The Med, has launched a swimwear and clothing line for 2017.

Having established itself within some of the world’s most desirable locations, Candypants, launched by Ray Chan nine years ago whilst at university in Leeds, has expanded into the fashion world and partnered with swimwear and lingerie specialists Delta Connex, to produce a unique range of swim, beach and body jewellery.

Launching in July, the Candypants lifestyle collection will include 11 swimwear pieces, 11 beach pieces and seven pieces of body jewellery. The brand’s move into fashion comes as the event company becomes increasingly prevalent on the global event stage, having started life as a weekly club event in Leeds.

Chan, Candypants founder, said: “Candypants has come a long way from its humble beginnings as a once-a-week club event in Leeds, we’ve grown into a global brand with a fantastic community of loyal party goers including our Candypants girls. To have the chance to give our fans a brand-new range of party fashion is very exciting.”

Jennie Kecic, head of creative at Delta Connex, joined the company in January after eight years working as a buyer for brands including Boohoo, Bank and Republic.

She said: “It’s great to be working with such a successful global brand and thriving community, Candypants girls are always right on trend and to create a range for them has been very exciting.

“It’s a perfect partnership for Delta Connex and Candypants, both of which are taking their brand to the next level with this new fashion range.”
