Eco-friendly glam *is* possible.
Emma Watson made headlines in 2015 when she agreed to the Green Carpet Challenge, a promise that each of her red carpet looks from that year would be sustainable. Since then, many celebrities, including Lupita Nyong’o and Margot Robbie, have followed in Watson’s footsteps by wearing eco-friendly and promoting an ethical, sustainable future in fashion.
"That’s really the issue that we have with fashion, that people are buying clothes and throwing them away after wearing them twice, filling land[fills], creating unsafe working conditions. Destroying the planet, essentially.” Watson told Coveteur. "From couture to T-shirts, landfills are filled with garments that have been unnecessarily discarded," she told The Hollywood Reporter."Particularly in today’s climate, it seems willful and ridiculous that such beautiful garments are not cherished and reworn for a lifetime."

Julianne Moore Not only was Moore's black dress at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival sustainable, but so were her jewels. The actor, who wore the look at the Yomeddine, wore ethical jewelry from Chopard. The jewels, including a necklace and rings, were from Chopard's Journey to Sustainable Luxury collection, which was created in collaboration with Eco-Age, an environmental organization by Livia Firth.
