Founded in 2020 and led by designer Ashlynn Park, ASHLYN has been recognized for its mastery of modern tailoring, commitment to quality, and a design philosophy and studio discipline that respect time, people, and the environment.
As a designer and business owner, Park challenges a world of overproduction and overconsumption by focusing on zero-waste creation, empowering each stakeholder in her process to act consciously and responsibly in their development activities.
ASHLYN has been honored as an LVMH Prize Finalist in 2022, the 18th winner of SAMSUNG’s SFDF Prize, and selected to participate in the prestigious MATCHESFASHION Innovator and BERGDORF GOODMAN Radar programs. In 2021, ASHLYN was invited by The Metropolitan Museum of Art to showcase Quinn, a gown constructed to be light-filled, in the "In America: A Lexicon of Fashion" exhibition. ASHLYN is now represented in the museum's permanent collection with several of her designs, including one of the zero-waste pieces.
The ASHLYN brand exists to share its values, intentions, knowledge, and culture with the aim of passing them on to the next generation. A mentor and collaborator, Park explores new creative terrain through the exchange of ideas with artists and makers from other disciplines. Through trust and freedom, a multi-layered brand universe is communicated as each new collection comes to life.
