High fashion isn't necessarily the first thing that comes to mind when you think of what might be displayed in an art museum. But you'd be remiss if you didn't think it belonged. High fashion can be sculptural, the designs can be groundbreaking, but they can also be historically significant. The Ebony Fashion Fair was all of those things, it not only redefined beauty within the world of high fashion, but it changed peoples lives. Just take a look at the impact it had and why it fits perfectly in the Memorial Art Gallery. Aired 4/15/16.
