Moschino’s Candy Crush Capsule Release Party Was Pretty Sweet (Photos)

By Cordelia Tai

Thanks to Pokémon Go, the burgeoning podcast craze and our general sense of self-awareness, Candy Crush isn’t as much of a thing as it used to be. Still, many continue to spend a shameful considerable amount of time and money on the highly addictive game, including one Jeremy Scott. On Friday, the king of pop culture and luxury fashion synthesis released his latest capsule collection in collaboration with — you guessed it — the makers of Candy Crush.

Lucky invitees, among them Katie Perry, Rita Ora and Charlie XCX, flocked to the Corona Yacht Club to party amidst life-size candies, colorful floats and a candy-reminiscent ball pit. (Prime Instagram material.) Coco Rocha, Dilone, and Angel and Dren modeled the collection. Click through the slideshow below for party pics, then head over to Moschino to shop the collab.
