Ashlynn Park’s fall 2025 collection was inspired by the persimmon fruit, which she explained endures cold winters to become sweeter.
“Philosophically, that also shows its resilience through the winter, and then now, it’s time to show who is Ashlyn very strongly,” she said about the parallels between her collection and the inspiration. “It was a statement collection. I needed to pull the essence of the pieces and then place them everywhere. I wanted to tell who is the client of Ashlyn.”
Park’s design skills were the focal point of the collection. She continued her affinity for delicately balancing feminine and masculine silhouettes, as well as uniform dressing. There were pieces like structured outerwear designed with dainty peplum details, flowing trousers and cropped blazers. While her pieces were devoid of any ornamentation, they stood out for their construction and ease of wear.
The designer highlighted her “persimmon pant” as one of the season’s key styles and noted that the piece can work for both short and tall women and that it has versatility to be paired with both masculine and feminine pieces.
She also delivered an update on her “puzzle” styles — which she explained have been commercially successful — which she introduced a few seasons ago. Park rounded out the collection with a bright red puzzle-style peplum top paired with loose jersey pants.
Park delivered a well-rounded collection that showed her ability to keep bringing newness to her established design codes, as well as her craftsmanship.
