"In spite of strife around the globe, the fashion world is projecting an upbeat attitude. Renowned designers around the world have declared liveliness and vibrancy to be the feel and ambience for the 2007-2008 fashion season," Links spokesperson Darlene Lewis said.
"Consequently, what we wear from this point forward should lift the spirit and enliven your personal style. It is a time to reflect your positive outlook on life with your wardrobe and your attitude," she said.
"Many of the glamorous looks of seasons past were showcased on the runways of the world in remixed versions to create new, trendy glam for today," Ms. Lewis said.
Ebony Fashion Fair Show is the Links' main fundraiser benefiting its four facets - services to youth, international trends and services, national trends and services and the arts.
