Abel Honor New York is an American fashion designer.

Label[edit]

Abel Honor New York was founded by designer Kate Wasserbach in 2019, after prior work with Ralph Lauren, Christian Dior, and Michael Kors.[1] 75% of Abel Honor's original line was sold out within nine hours.[2] The line was separated into “Recwear” and also a “Black Label”, which targeted the luxury fashion market.[3] Largely women's wear, the line also includes unisex pieces.[4] The label released its second collection in 2021, entitling it “Avant-Contention”,[5] which combined couture fashion with punk music culture—both that of 1970s UK and more modern Japanese cyberpunk.[6] The line included both men's and women's fashion, with pieces including shorts, dresses, sweaters, tops, pants, and skirts.[7]

The label's designs have included vegan-based items, such as vegan leathers and vegan furs.[8] The label also does not restock lines once they sell out, as a part an effort to be a sustainable clothing line.[5]
