EBONY FASHION FAIR
After a winter of hiding out, the time has come once again to evaluate your fashion-preparedness for spring 2006. Its a scary thought, since the South Sound is not even on the edge of the fashion radar. To help remedy this situation, the Tacoma Urban League Guild hosts the national touring Ebony Fashion Fair. With its theme "Fit to be Fabulous," the Ebony Fashion Fair will swing into Tacoma to help us become hip. With a kicking sound track and fashion from New York, Milan, Paris and London, the show is broken into two acts with four themes per act, including "Stylishly Square," "Cold As Ice," "Colorful Drama," "Stripe It Up," "In The Bag" and "Cocktails For Two." Just remember: If you don't look good, your town doesn't look good, and in turn, you don't look good again. And please, skip a meal or eight - navigating 18-inch platforms while wearing that Mood Top and short skirt will be difficult enough: don't make it harder on yourself. - Suzy Stump
