A year ago, Evelyn Davis, a native of Ghana, opened the Beauty Box near Outback Steaks in Lilburn. She carries a little something for every taste. Evelyn said, pulling out a buttercup yellow dress with elephants parading around the hem. Last March, Mumtaz opened across the street. Most clothes here are rather formal, but several dresses were reminiscent of things I bought 25 years ago at the now defunct Vanillasphere at Ansley Mall.
American women buy our clothes to wear to their Indian friends' weddings.
Speaking of scarves, that old paisley hanky of mine, once associated only with slaves and Slavs, has hit the fashion scene big time. And please don't be alarmed. I'm not part of a gang. I'm not armed. But do beware of one thing.
