What to know about After Pray

Cut loose, made deliberately

The house silhouette is oversized shirting, loose knitwear and wide-leg trousers, built as tailored ready-to-wear rather than boxy streetwear basics.

Priced as contemporary, not streetwear

Treated cottons and Italian wool put it in contemporary price territory, above the streetwear tier its Seoul references might suggest.

Outerwear leads the collections

Jackets and layering pieces are what the label is known for, and its seasonal drops reach beyond Seoul through SSENSE and Simons.
