Favorite piece from the Black Fashion Designers exhibit at Fashion Institute of Technology, New York. Byron Lars tailored wrap dress fall 1991. Bloomingdale’s loved this so much they made it part of their fall 1991 campaign photographed by Steven Misel. That year Women’s Wear Daily also named him ‘Rookie of the Year’.
