When Andrés Jiménez was growing up, his friends used to call him “Andy.” Eventually, one of his amigas said to him jokingly: “You are like Andy Candy.”So, when the time came to choose a name for his menswear label, what came to mind was Mancandy—the irresistible kind-of guy that every girl would desire!
Launching his label in 2007, this 26-year-old Mexican designer, who has been sowing since the age of ten, is already attracting the attention of the international press.
Lover of the arts and inspired by romanticism, music, and the pursuit of beauty, Andrés designs a casual line of menswear for a target group of young men ranging from the ages of 17-30.
Exalting natural simplicity, Andrés believes that true happiness does not stem from looking chic but rather a man must be happy, first, in order to be chic!
Last week in Guadalajara, Mexico, Andrés brought his sweet philosophy to the runways of Intermoda where he presented a chic 2009 a/w collection of Mancandy for guys who understand the true meaning of happiness.
