:: Ryan Kwanten introduces Mambo to the United States

By: Carmine Pascuzzi

Australian actor Ryan Kwanten, as the Mambo brand ambassador, welcomed the Mambo brand to the United States at an exclusive launch of the brand with an evening of “Art, skate, surf and humour” with a preview of the collection for Spring 2012 for young men and women, as well as childrenswear and accessories. The complete Mambo collection includes sportswear, swimwear, sunglasses, flip flops and a graphic t-shirt collection featuring exclusive designs by Kwanten.

The iconic Australian surf and streetwear label was given the celebratory treatment with the help of other Australians such as Cheyenne Tozzi, Jessica Gomes, Nicole Trunfio, Luci Taffs, Emma Lung, Luke Cheadle and Nick Leary.

Guests were immersed into the Mambo culture and lifestyle throughout the evening. From art battles by Brent Smith and Andrea von Bujdoss, complimentary t-shirt screening, live skate boarders and a special performance by The Ill Fits – a group created with members of MGMT, Amazing Baby, and Foreign Islands, fronted by Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson - the evening was fun-filled and action-packed.

Mambo will be sold exclusively in the United States at The Bon-Ton Stores and all items will be available in spring 2012 at all Bon-Ton Stores locations and via e-commerce here
