The Ebony Fashion Show celebrates 50 years

By Suzanne Ryan
03:59 PM

This Sunday, you can catch the show at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel at 5 p.m.

I grew up attending this event in California. It was always a scene. Unlike the shows in New York, this travelling fashion show allows its models to have personality and sass. There's humor and a great announcer with a fabulous voice describing the designs for the audience. Sometimes the clothing totally missed the mark (check out the blue and green number below). But it was always a good time.

I can't believe it's been 50 years since the show hit the road.

Tickets are available at Cramer's Hair Studio, Hip Zepi USA and a Twist of Passion Hair Salon.
