The Christian Cowan SS 24 collection that's debuting at Paris Fashion Week includes colorful details like Candy Crush-inspired pockets designed to solve the problem of garments with no pockets, fake pockets or pockets that are simply too small to use. These attachable pockets created in collaboration with Candy Crush Saga are limited-edition and purposely oversized, and each one takes cues from candies from Candy Kingdom.
These pockets can be affixed to any garment with pins, which makes them ideal for storing everything from mobile devices for gaming to secret candy stashes.
"For decades, pockets have been notoriously ignored by designers and excluded from women's clothing, but fashion today begs for them," said Cowan, "but alongside the Candy Crush team I was jazzed to make something that was both camp and practical."
