Fun Black history fact - Sequin City of North Bergen, New Jersey, the place to go for all things glittery!

Need a boatoad of sequins and such? Look no further. If you come to the NE of the U.S. A., Raymond Hill is your man on the job. The fashion world, celebrities and shoe designers count on Sequin City to outfit them in sparkle beyond belief. Mr. Hill turned a pink slip into gold and never looked back. He ended up buying his ex-employer's building. For Mr. Hill, revenge was a dish best served with spangles.
