Black History Month - Ebony Fashion Fair
This post is very near to my heart. I attended the Ebony Fashion Fair from a young girl in the 8th grade until its finale. So when it was referenced in The Look, I couldn’t wait to share this tribute post!
First Lady Michelle Obama grew up on the south side of Chicago, the city where Ebony magazine was founded and headquartered. The book addresses her style as a young student in Harvard (slide to see photo) and the balancing act Black women know all too well when it comes to presenting ourselves to the world. Natural or relaxer? Braids or straight? Accentuate or hide our God given curves?
“Eunice Walker Johnson (April 4, 1916 – January 3, 2010) was an American businesswoman. Johnson was the wife of publisher John H. Johnson and an executive at Johnson Publishing Company.[1] Johnson was the founder and director of the Ebony Fashion Fair, which began in 1958 as a hospital fundraiser and became an annual worldwide fashion tour that highlighted fashion for African-American women, running until a year before her death.”
The Ebony magazine and Ebony Fashion Fair was magical to me. This confirmed for me that I was in fact beautiful because I saw beautiful Black women (and men) staring back at me on the pages and walking with long, elegant and soulful strides down the runway. Representation matters. 🤎 #BHM #TheLook #Becoming #Obama #fyp
