We've ben hearing a lot of buzz around the EBONY Fashion Fair exhibition at the Chicago History Museum that opens next week. And if you want to rub sequined elbows with Linda Johnson Rice and members of the Costume Council, you need tickets to the opening gala on March 15. Obviously this is black tie and gets you first look at the exhibition and a viewing of other special collection garments that will be in the museum for that night only. Tickets run $1000.
