AMBUSH SS25 / Spring Summer 2025 during Paris Fashion Week

Their look is all frayed edges and unexpected 1 contrasts-refund family heirlooms alongside de off-kilter sportswear. For Ambush Spring Summer 2025, Yoon imagines an art class full of assorted misfits, juxtaposing their newfound maturity with a teenage naivety they are loath to leave behind. AMBUSH® blends tailoring and refined new fabrics made in Japan with a riot of ribbons, colour, and cuteness as the brand navigates growing up and creating its own, unique craft collage.
