Emma Watson Models Eco-Friendly Clothes for ‘The Edit’ Magazine Green Carpet Challenge [PHOTOS]
British actress Emma Watson continues to stun people with her beauty and fashion style as she took part in eco campaigner Livia Firth's ethical fashion with Green Carpet Challenge. The 23-year-old "Harry Potter" star modeled custom-made Green Gowns for Livia Firth's project and "The Edit" magazine spread where five designers worked together in creating sustainably produced gowns.
Ms Watson looked really elegant in her ethical fashion style for "The Edit" magazine cover as the project got photographed by Net-A-Porter's Bjorn Iooss. Christopher Bailey of Burberry, one of the five designers involved, explained that ethical fashion focuses on manufacturing "something responsibly that explores sustainability.
The other designers in the Livia Firth Green Carpet Challenge project are Christopher Kane, Victoria Beckham, Erdem and Roland Mouret. Ms Beckham gave her thoughts as well on the eco-friendly fashion style: "I really feel that it is an issue that we all as designers are more and more aware of. The work that the GCC is doing has provided us with a unique opportunity to explore eco-friendly fabrics and present them as viable options within our collections."
Emma Watson's contribution in green fashion made her the top choice in showcasing the eco-friendly spread on "The Edit" magazine. "I've always had this huge problem. I would love to wear garments that are ethically sourced, but there aren't enough options for me to be able to do that realistically," the actress shared.
"It just seemed like the project was something I had to do, something I'd been waiting for. Livia's created a lobbying body to put pressure on governments and corporations to encourage them to have ethical responsibility as their baseline. It's quite awesome," Emma further added.
Ms Watson has previously teamed up with UK brand "People Tree" with an eco-friendly clothing line as well as Italian fashion designer Alberta Ferretti to convey the eco fashion style to the catwalks. "Maybe there would be fewer problems if we were really conscious of where and how things were made. We don't support slave labor in this country, so we shouldn't support those conditions in other countries. I can't wrap my head around why ethical clothing is a specialty and not a base standard," the actress declared.
