The book, written by Tonya Blazio-Licorish and Tara Donaldson, explores the contributions of trailblazing designers like Stephen Burrows and Virgil Abloh, whose philosophy inspired a new generation to interact with fashion differently; pioneering models like Naomi Sims, who in 1969 at age twenty-one launched Naomi Inc., a cosmetics company catering to Black women; and celebrities and multi-hyphenates like Josephine Baker, whose approach to fashion in the 1920s single-handedly changed and challenged the influence of Black culture on a global scale. In-depth profiles on Black creatives throughout the fashion world--and on key topics such as the Black is Beautiful movement--punctuate the lavish pages as well, in addition to original interviews with notables and a foreword from acclaimed American designer Tracy Reese. \u003ci\u003eBlack in Fashion\u003c\/i\u003e is an incomparable celebration of Black fashion from the ultimate voice of authority. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eCurated from the expansive archives of the legendary \u003ci\u003eWWD\u003c\/i\u003e, this visually stunning and groundbreaking work unveils the remarkable legacy of Black trailblazers whose style and vision have left an indelible mark on the fashion industry.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003ePerfect for those looking for fashion books, fashion coffee table books, or Black history books, \u003ci\u003eBlack in Fashion\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-have for fashion and history enthusiasts alike.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWWD \u003c\/i\u003e(\u003ci\u003eWomen's Wear Daily\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/b\u003e has brought readers breaking news about the fashion industry, designers, and celebrity trend-setters, as well as extensive coverage of fashion week, since 1910.
