We know that the fashion industry is one of the most polluting in the world and such an aspect cannot fail to be taken into consideration during an event as important and as representative of the sector as the Met Gala.
The dress code was to interpret the American cultural tradition, but for some celebrities it was a way to talk about sustainability and respect for the environment. Here are what they are:
BILLIE EILISH
The old woman’s diva outfit Hollywood worn by the singer is the result of a compromise with the creative team of Oscar de la Renta. The brand has stopped producing fur garments in its collections, but some still hold out in the brand’s stores. When Billie was contacted by Fernando Garcia, co-creative director of the label, specified that he would wear one of his dresses only if he had withdrawn all fur clothes from the market. The negotiation must have been successful since the interpreter of Bad Guy she looked wonderful with her peach-colored tulle suit signed by the designer herself.
NIA DENNIS
The gymnast wore a designer look Stella McCartney, created only from recycled recycled materials. For her opening performance she also wore sneakers, again by the English designer, made from plastic recovered from the oceans and designed to combat ocean pollution.
JULIA GARNER AND ELLA EMHOFF
The actress and artist (and stepdaughter of the vice president Kamala Harris) showed up on the red carpet with a coordinated look, always by Stella McCartney. Also in this case, all the fibers used for both looks are recycled and the production, entirely handmade, has been designed to minimize the environmental impact.
MAISIE WILLIAMS
The bodice of the dress of Maisie Williams it is literally made of waste. The designer and companion of the actress, Reuben Selby, he designed for her a bustier that used cellulose fibers obtained from waste rich in this material. It is also the first piece in the designer’s debut collection.
ADDISON RAE
Our Addison fished out a fabulous dress Gucci by Tom Ford from 2003. A magnificent vintage piece that takes inspiration from one of its icons par excellence, Britney Spears. The tiktoker chose this outfit precisely because it reminded her of the one worn by the pop star at the ceremony of the Grammy from 2002.
Let’s not forget, however, that even the organization of the Met was entirely eco-sustainable. All the displays – especially the large oak designed by the designer Raúl Ávila – they were designed with recycled materials and the menu served during dinner was completely vegan. Well done: we hope that soon all events of this caliber will follow suit.
