Which Dragon's Den investor became known for the clothing brand Ghost?

The story behind the answer

Touker Suleyman became known for the clothing brand Ghost.

Suleyman acquired the British fashion label Ghost after its parent business encountered financial difficulties. Ghost was founded in 1984 and became noted for its fluid, draped clothing and distinctive fabric, especially garments made from stretchable, crease-resistant material. The acquisition gave Suleyman control of a recognisable fashion name as well as further experience in brand management.

He later brought that fashion and manufacturing background to Dragon's Den when he joined the panel in 2015. His career is broader than the television programme: it includes clothing production, retail and investment in consumer brands.

Ghost is sometimes incorrectly attributed to another Dragon because the panel includes several entrepreneurs with retail interests. The brand's connection here is specifically with Suleyman's acquisition and ownership.
