It's the first Monday in May. AKA it's time for the annual Met
Gala. Or as some call it, "fashion's biggest night."

Celebrities will walk the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art
hoping their looks live up to the annual theme of the gala. This
year's theme is a special one. It's called "Superfine: Tailoring
Black Style," and it's the very first Black fashion tradition to be
selected for the theme of the Costume Institute's fundraiser.

Brittany and her guests, culture writer Shelton Boyd-Griffith and
editor-in-chief of Black Fashion Fair Antoine Gregory, discuss how
celebrities can be sure to be on theme and how the theme is rooted
in the very first fashion statements made by enslaved people.
