A stunning and comprehensive look at the indelible contribution of Black designers, models, scene-makers, and stylists to fashion history, from "the bible of fashion"--WWD.

Black in Fashion is a celebration of Black voices in fashion as captured by Women's Wear Daily contributors and photographers since the publication's inception in 1910. WWD is showcased here with more than 375 black-and-white and color photographs, illustrations, and articles from its massive archive. 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. Black in Fashion is an incomparable celebration of Black fashion from the ultimate voice of authority.

Curated from the expansive archives of the legendary WWD, 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.Perfect for those looking for fashion books, fashion coffee table books, or Black history books, Black in Fashion is a must-have for fashion and history enthusiasts alike.

GREAT suit for the price.
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Amazing suit. Ordered an XL for my husband when we got it. Pants were very long and a little big on the waist, so we took them to get tailored for a more fitted look. I don’t like that the “pocket square” is sewn in but, it can be tucked down, so we did that and added our own that matched the tie we ordered separately. Overall, good quality for the price. We have not washed but we do take it to the dry cleaners.

Quality vs Representation
Color: Black, Size: Medium, Color: Black, Size: Medium
Please check clothing due to finding the blazer a bit dirty as if someone wore it with Cat hair and dust along with a dead bug and smelling a fishy smell. We ordered in advance to take it to the dry cleaners for additional wash before using. Quality is great material; tie not included be sure to measure before purchasing to avoid any tailoring.

Earned its 5 stars!
Color: Dark Grey, Size: X-Small
My husband has a thin frame and struggles to find dress clothes that fit well without breaking the bank. Since the size measurements were very detailed, we decided to take the gamble and hope for the best. This is genuinely the best fitting suit he has ever owned. It looks custom tailored. The material is great quality and the price point is even better. We suggested this suit to our groomsmen and were delighted to see it well accommodated a variety of body types. My husband loved his suit so much we bought him one in another color and had great success with that order as well. HIGHLY recommend this suit set!

Perfect Fit and Great Quality!
Size: 4, Color: Vest Pants Set-black 2, Size: 4, Color: Vest Pants Set-black 2
I love this set! It came with everything included shirt, vest, pants, tie, and bow tie which made it a fantastic value. I bought it for my grandson, who is a tall 3-year-old (3’9 and 41lbs), so I usually size up and got a size 4. It fit him perfectly! The quality is excellent well made with great fabric not a stretchy material and it looked absolutely adorable on him. I would definitely buy this again. Great price for what you get!
