The Root’s annual award show, The Root 100, is quickly approaching (It’s Dec 5), and we’re celebrating Black talent in multiple categories! Black influencers and content creators are known for their presence as you scroll on your phone screens, but they also slay their red-carpet looks in real life! These creators have attended major events this year from the Met Gala to all the award shows and we hope they will pack The Root 100 gala at the Apollo Theater. And want them to look amazing while doing it. Here are some of our favorite influencer’s red-carpet fashion moments!
