SABA is a fashion label from Australia, established by Joe Saba in 1965. It initially opened as The Joseph SABA Shirt Shop on Flinders Lane in Melbourne. The brand specializes in modern apparel for both women and men and has showcased collections at prominent fashion occasions such as Australian Fashion Week and the L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival. In 1996, SABA earned the Australian Fashion Menswear Award and received the title of Fashion House of the Year from the Powerhouse Museum.
Ownership of SABA changed in 2002 when Joe Saba sold the company to Daniel and Danielle Besen, who also managed Sportsgirl and Sussan. By 2005, the Apparel Group took over SABA and shifted its main office to Sydney. Today, SABA runs 30 independent stores throughout Australia and is available at select David Jones outlets.
