It was in 1981 that Abboud started working at Ralph Lauren and worked there for a couple of years till he was made the associate director of menswear design which was Abboud’s first major achievement. Soon he launched his own menswear label by the name of JA Apparel which later collaborated with GFT, USA. Saks and Bergdorf Goodman started selling his clothing line, which was very popular among young men at that time. In 1991, he got a chance to work with fashion director Peter Speliopoulos.
