AMBUSH® (@ambush_official) shared a post

<AMBUSH> gained recognition in 2017 when it was selected as a finalist for the "Young Fashion Designers Brand" award hosted by the LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy) Group.
The LVMH Prize, which started in 2013, is an award competition organized by a global luxury business group that helps new talents gain recognition and make their international debut. I personally look forward to it every year and keep a close eye on it.
There's also a dedicated Instagram account, so be sure to check it out!
<AMBUSH> was launched in Tokyo in 2008 as a jewelry brand by designer YOON and her husband, hip-hop artist VERBAL. Since 2018, YOON has also been active as a jewelry designer for <Dior Homme>.
I remember being so excited when I heard this news – a female designer creating men's jewelry for a global luxury brand! That's really cool.
Furthermore, <AMBUSH> has also garnered attention through collaborations with various brands.
Well-known examples include <NIKE> and <Converse>. More recently, they even collaborated with the LVMH Group's champagne brand, <MOET CHANDON>! The short video for this collaboration took inspiration from "ASMR," a trend on YouTube, and the stimulating editorial, typical of <AMBUSH>, became a hot topic. (Incidentally, it was produced by "kidzfromnowhere," a production company known for its excellent creative work that stimulates both auditory and visual senses. Truly a perfect match.)

Forget-me-nots carries <AMBUSH> jewelry, including their iconic lighter case necklace, and their apparel line, which has surpassed jewelry in popularity.
Let's check them out!

First, we have the lighter case necklace, now an icon of the brand. It's available in silver and gold.

These thong mule sandals have a striking cushioned volume. The thick heel makes them easy to wear, while the leather finish adds a touch of luxury.

This one-shoulder tank top will be a big hit for the upcoming season. It makes an impact as a main item or as an inner layer.

A trendy top made from thin, fitted material with a monogram print. This can also be used as a main item or an inner layer. Just layering it under a T-shirt or sweatshirt creates a unique styling.
