Our clothing makes a statement. It tells the world who we are at any given moment and allows for a sense of expression that words cannot convey.

Newark has a storied history within the fashion world and the Newark Museum of Art is honoring that history with their latest exhibition, "The Story of Newark Fashion: Atelier to Runway."

Highlighting 75 years of Newark Fashion, The talent on display is exclusively by designers of color. This exhibition is a sight to behold for those who love fashion, culture, and history.
