“Being rebellious and black, a nonconformist, being cool and hip and angry and sophisticated and ultra clean, whatever else you want to call it—I was all those things and more.” --Miles Davis
The turn to exquisitely styled casual dress in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s revolutionized fashion. Black designers and wearers were at the center of redefining how people dress and show up—as themselves—to work and play. Resisting authoritative norms of dress, they donned khaki, knitted cardigans, tracksuits, and denim, which came to manifest the art of being unbothered and dexterous.
See these on view in “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” opening May 10. #SuperfineStyle

Happy Birthday to Emmett Till. He would've been 83 years old today.
At just 14, two white men kidnapped and brutally murdered him through mutilation for 'whistling' at a white woman.
decades later, Carolyn Bryant admitted to lying that Emmett Till made a pass at her.
