The first large-format book on AMBUSH\u00ae, one of the most influential ready-to-wear and jewelry brands to come out of Japan in the last two decades. Offering a deep dive into the brand\u2019s teeming archive, this intuitively engineered monograph is a sleek essential for lovers of fashion, as well as streetwear enthusiasts and tech-driven lifestyle culture.<\/p>\n
Founded in Tokyo in 2008, AMBUSH\u00ae first gained notoriety for creating the \u201cPOW!\u00ae\u201d line of rings and chains, a design heavily indebted to American pop-art and manga which took the world of hip-hop by storm. A multi-disciplinary fashion, jewelry and design collective, AMBUSH\u00ae is the brainchild of Korean-American designer YOON and Korean-Japanese music producer VERBAL.<\/p>\n
Championed from the very outset by the likes of Pharrell, NIGO\u00ae and Colette, YOON\u2019s jewelry designs often include bold motifs as seen in collections drawn from everyday objects such as office stationery, safety pins, and disposable lighters. With apparel as a canvas to complete the aesthetic YOON envisioned, AMBUSH\u00ae evolved into designing unisex ready-to-wear collections. Growing into a full fashion line that often draws inspiration from subcultures and countercultures, AMBUSH\u00ae grew a devoted following well beyond Tokyo. The brand\u2019s uniquely crafted parts form an idiosyncratic style that led to commissions and collaborations with an illustrious list that includes Louis Vuitton (Kim Jones), sacai, UNDERCOVER, Off-White, Mo\u00ebt & Chandon, Bvlgari, Nike, CONVERSE, Rimowa, and GENTLE MONSTER.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
