Jet, April 24, 2000

The 42nd annual EBONY Fashion Fair recently made its way Tinsel Town with Fashions 2000 at the plush Century Plaza Hotel, Century City, in Los Angeles.

A sumptuous brunch was held prior to the fashion extravaganza where creations from the world's to fashion houses and designers were modeled.

Outfits showcased colors, shapes, fabrics and styles that many fashion patrons could hardly believe were imaginable. Evening wear emphasized elegance. Casual wear focused on classy, while swim wear pushed sexy into overdrive. Male patrons also were treated to high-fashion designs in colors and styles that made them look twice.

The event, which benefited the Children's Home Society, marked Lullaby Guild, Inc. of the Children's Home Society's 42nd year as EBONY Fashion Fair sponsor and 50 years of service in its commitment to educating and providing a better future for children and their families. Almost $1 million has been raised by the Lullaby Guild to foster its commitment.
