About Fabb

Reenie Brown

In 1990, Reenie Brown, founder and publications director of Accessories Magazine, had the idea for an industry charity event that would bring everyone together for a celebration and raise money for charities. And so the Fashion Accessories Benefit Ball was born — with the acronym FABB!

The Marriott Marquis was FABB's home for 17 years. At the second FABB, our first honoree was Judith Lieber, who was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award in 1991. The rest is history, as we have honored many of our industry's leaders and given to a variety of deserving charities, most notably in children's and women's health.

In 1993, we launched the Accessories Council and funded it through FABB. The AC's purpose was to promote the industry and accessories — which it continues to do through the ACE awards.

As of this year, our 23nd annual FABB, we will have raised more than $13 million for charities. Together, we have truly made a difference in the lives of so many in need. And FABB has become the major event of the industry.

Join us at this very special event!
