SABO’s New Collection Is Giving New York Energy, and It’s Unlike Anything We’ve Seen From the Brand Before
like you've never seen before
By Kiri Johnston | 14th August 2026This isn’t the SABO you know.
Trading its signature breezy resortwear for silk, lace and statement evening pieces, the Australian brand has unveiled its most elevated collection to date, and it’s giving serious New York energy.
Inspired by Australian entrepreneur and content creator Kayla Boyd’s effortlessly polished style, SABO x KB marks a fresh chapter for the brand. While SABO has long been known for its easy-to-wear linens and sun-soaked aesthetic, this latest drop embraces a more refined mood, with silky fabrics, delicate lace, shimmering sequins, and elevated separates designed for dressing up without feeling overdone.
New York state of mind
Captured against the backdrop of New York City, the campaign perfectly reflects the mood of the collection. There’s an effortless confidence woven throughout every look, balancing modern tailoring with romantic textures and timeless silhouettes. It’s polished without feeling too formal, elevated without trying too hard, and strikes that sweet spot between statement dressing and everyday wearability.
One of the things we love most is that these aren’t pieces destined to sit in your wardrobe waiting for a special occasion. Instead, every design has been created to work with the pieces you already own. A lace camisole layered beneath an oversized blazer, a silk skirt styled with a chunky knit, or tailored trousers paired with a simple white tank instantly create looks that feel considered without requiring an entirely new wardrobe.
It’s that versatility that makes the collection so appealing. Rather than chasing trends, SABO has focused on timeless wardrobe staples that can be styled countless ways, making each piece feel like a worthwhile investment you’ll continue reaching for season after season. The shift also signals an exciting evolution for the Australian label.
For years, SABO has built a loyal following through its signature resort-inspired aesthetic, becoming a go-to destination for effortless holiday dressing, linen sets and easy summer outfits. While those foundations remain, SABO x KB introduces a more sophisticated direction that feels perfectly suited to city living, evening occasions and the growing appetite for elevated capsule wardrobes.
Silks, lace and sequins are balanced with clean tailoring and fluid silhouettes, creating pieces that feel luxurious without losing the relaxed femininity the brand has become known for. It’s a collection designed for women who love getting dressed, but also want their wardrobe to work harder, with pieces that transition seamlessly from day to night and from season to season.
For Kayla Boyd, the collaboration is a natural progression of a long-standing relationship with the Australian brand. Having previously partnered with SABO across several milestones, including the Bump & Beyond collection, this latest release reflects her own approach to fashion-classic foundations elevated with contemporary styling and thoughtful details.
Her influence is evident throughout the collection. There’s a distinctly New York attitude running through every look, inspired by the city’s energy and effortless street style, while still feeling unmistakably wearable for Australian wardrobes.
Whether you’re planning spring events, updating your evening wardrobe or simply looking for elevated separates that you’ll wear on repeat, this collection delivers pieces that feel equal parts timeless and modern. If your wardrobe has been calling for something a little more elevated, this may be the collection you didn’t know you’ve been looking for.
