Little Rock - Arkansas Baptist College is continuing its mission to not only make a difference in the lives of its students, but the community as well.

Channel 7 told you about the recent renovation efforts surrounding the campus. Now project those who are fashion-savvy can embrace. The college is sponsoring the 51st Ebony Fashion Fair this Tuesday at 7 o'clock at the Statehouse Convention Center.

Proceeds benefit the on-going efforts of the college--while also contributing toward scholarships. Local civic leader Janell Mason is co-chairing the Little Rock tour of the fashion show--which features designs from 88 internationally known designers.

(Janell Mason, Co-Chair Ebony Fashion Fair) "Designers like Christian La Croix, Marc Bauer, Reem Acra, Carolina Herrera, Oscar de la Renta, All the names you hear about in fashion. This is a Broadway show combined with New York fashion week, right here in Little Rock. Our committee has chosen to add video screens to the event so that everyone will have a front row seat."

This year's fashion fair tour will mark the return of El Dorado native Merkeycia Carter who is traveling with the troup.
