Abstract Illism

Innovative. Urban. Authentic.

Abstract Illism is a lifestyle boutique and retail establishment based in Buffalo, NY. We take pride in the high-quality comfort and ease of our pieces, but this line is more than just clothing—It’s a chance for Black creators to reclaim streetwear fashion that’s been exploited by outsiders profiting off our communities.

Urban culture is easy to love but difficult to understand. Young Black artists from poor neighborhoods have always been natural trendsetters. They transform the clothes off their back and inspire high fashion runways. Foreign designers love the look. They try to replicate the vibes. But they never credit the original creators. Abstract Illism will redefine this urban influence.
