Thursday. October 8. 1981 Ebony Fashion Fair Slated By popular demand, the spectacular and sensational Ebony Fashion Fair returns to the campus of Elizabeth City State University Tuesday at 8 P.M., in Moore Hall auditorium. With an accent on the fullness of fall fashions, the show is entitled, “The Look of Elegance.” Bringing this highly professional troupe of fashion models and designs to ECSU is the Elizabeth City Chapter of National Epicureans, Inc. The civic minded organization, that supports everything from student scholarships to community • service organizations and projects, brings the Ebony Fashion Fair to town to help raise fund in support of the Elizabeth City State University Foundation’s “Half-Million Dollar’’ Challenge Fund Drive. “Who knows, if our efforts are successful in helping the Foundatioq reach its goal of raising the funds needed to begin initial construction on ECSU’s outdoor physical education and athletic facility, some local fans just might come out, next year, and help grace the new Carrie M. and Sam Roebuck Stadium with sparkling and elegant fall fashions,” says Mrs. Valeria Vaughan, local Fair Chairperson and wife of ECSU Athletic Director Robert L. Vaughan. fHOLLOWELL’S\ t A >re , Q ELECTRICAL^^I^P® i HOLLOWELL ' ' f 1 id .OWNER (Licensed Electrician) © Call After 3:30 P.M. © PHONE 482-2608 © © FOR FREE ESTIMATES © NEW WORK 8 gjfe/ CONTRACTOR g *7onnA, *l*t. -mvtw MYRTLE M.

The 24th Annual Ebony Fashion Fair began its fall tour of 77 American cities on September 9, and Elizabeth . City is most fortunate in having the show return. Directed by Mrs. Eunice W. Johnson, wife of Johnson Publishing Co. President John H. Johnson, the traveling troupe of 14 glamorous models will unveil close to 200 fall fashion designs. Mrs. Johnson has selected the vast collection of designs during her earlier visits to New York, Paris and Milan. Naturally, she has also made selections from the creations of Black American designers. The Ebony Fashion Fair extravaganza will show “lavish but versatile styles with a mixture of rich fabrics and designs that give a look that is ‘dramatic by day and dazzling after sundown.” During the show at ECSU, “there will be fashions for those who prefer shorter to longer lengths or slender to fuller cuts. With the attitude that ‘more is better,’ designers are piling on layers of clothing, such as ensembles, complete with skirts, pants, jackets and huge shawls.” This year’s Ebony Fashion Fair theme, “The Look of Elegance,” is synonomous with the outpouring of lavish, opulent designs with more richness in fabric, mixture of textures and styling for a look that’s dramatic by day and dazzling at night. Observes Mrs. Johnson, “A return to glamour, beauty and style is apparent in the eighties and fashion trends for evening reflect that elegant feeling with entrance making gowns in velvet, satin and lame’ embroidered with semi precious stones, pajamas and knickers for evening in metallic leather and irridescent lame’.” "Th« brighter you are, the more you have to learn."
