BILLIE » NATALIE COLE Today's Fashions Among the noted Black designers in tod a y’ s fashion w orld are Ed A ustin, Jeffrey Banks and W illie Smith, whose creations are featured on this page. “ What I do best,” Ed A ustin says, “ is make .you not only look but be more fab u lo us.” And he does it by bringing out a woman’ s very best sense o f herself through individual, highly styled clothes. “ As a designer, I can’ t dictate to my clients what they should wear, but I can he'7 them discover that their own self-perceptions d on ’ t necessarily correspond to my image o f them. 1 can get them thinking about themselves in a new way, suggest a d iffe re n t approach, a previously unimagined look. Then, you often find a change in behavior. I believe this is what a designer ultimately does: if he’s creative, and i f he can /e e l fo r people, the designer helps you to discover you. ” unlimited Getting The Jum p On Dotal M ore party tim e fun, this tim e It’s W il li S m ith's "Katy K eene" ju m p su it (rem em ber the com ic book h er oine of the '50s w ho simply adored clothes).
