Hey there! We’re Matt and Lucy van der Riet...
We know, it’s a bit of a tongue twister, so we fondly call our brand VANDY. We’re the beach lovin’, adventure seekin’, sun chasin’ people who created the ultimate beach robe so you can get sandier, sunnier, and saltier at your favourite coastal or pool hang out for longer.
We’ve been lovingly called “neophillic” by close ones for our passion for new and novel adventures, and VANDY is no different - it’s an adventure like no other! Born from innovation, fun, connection and play on the shores of Currumbin Beach, the idea for a zesty robe that could warm, dry, protect and express began.
We started Vandy to spice up the beach and take it from beige to poppin’.
And we also want everyone to express their individuality, and have more fun and play in their day. We also care deeply about nurturing our mental health and the outdoors and the ultimate support tool.
That’s why we’ve brought you the original Beach Robe with customisable Robe Ties, and a whole bunch of fun and vibrant accessories.
With the spark of an idea, we started to merge our love for individual expression and our passion for functional practicality to create the perfect Summer essential.
Our Robes Rock:
A stylish high neck
To keep your precious neck and chest out of the sun
Deep and sturdy pockets
Easy access for whipping out your phone to take snaps and play tunes
GOTS Certified organic, lush material
Of colours that will brighten the beach and turn it into a confetti of robes
A way for you to mix and match your robe and tie
So you can show a bit of personality (because the world needs more of it, if you ask us!)
Basically, we’re just beach lovers with a creative spirit who want to bring more spice and sun to your life.
Thank you for being part of the Vandy community and mission - we couldn’t do it without ya!
