Emma Watson is changing #OOTD posts in the best way possible

by

While talking about the latest shoe trends or fashion blunders can be seen as superficial or frivolous, it looks like Emma Watson is going to change all of that.

Because, even though the actress is going down the #OOTD road on Instagram, she's merrily not just showing off her new Calvins or Gucci loafers; she's showing us that fashion can be powerful and a game changer in the world we live in today.

 

Bonjour Paris! Coat is from @stellamccartney, the world's first luxury brand that is committed to producing products that do not use leather, skins, feathers or fur. Instead, Stella has spent years developing ways of using materials such as regenerated cashmere, recycled fabrics, organic cotton and forest-friendly fabrics. Jumper is from @filippa_k, a Swedish brand committed to four Rs: reducing, repairing, reusing and recycling. Tee by @boodywear, a brand that produces basics made with certified organic bamboo, produced using computerised 3D knitting, so no fabric is wasted. Its factories are zero-waste and have a closed loop system to stop any water being wasted. Bespoke beret by @maisonmichel made with organic cotton. Shoes are @goodguysdontwearleather. The brand doesn’t use any animal products in its collections. Fashion info verified by @ecoage #ecoloves

Her new IG account, @the_press_tour, showcases her sustainable fashion choices, and she writes detailed descriptions explaining why she chose every single piece of clothing she wears.

In a world where people are more focused on the designer brand than where the clothes actually come from, Emma is one of the first to show her ethical choices to us via social media.

Why? Because it's important to her. She was part of the Green Carpet Challenge in 2015, where she agreed to wear sustainable fashion in every red carpet look.

Her Met Gala gown was a Calvin Klein creation, made from recycled plastic bottles and her Beauty and the Beast premiere gown was made from end-of-the-barrell materials.

 

Sunday was the first ever public screening of @beautyandthebeast! We were so happy to surprise the audience in Paris and say “bonjour” in person, especially as this is the country where it was created and Belle’s place of birth  Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, the new Co-Creative Directors of @oscardelarenta, created this Jacobian flower-embroidered duchesse satin bustier with an organic silk faille sash and organic wool trousers as part of their first collection. The entire look was made in-house at Oscar de la Renta’s NYC atelier  @burberry pumps handmade in Italy with organic silk. Fashion info verified by @ecoage #ecoloves Lipstick is a combination of Osaka Plum Matte and New Orleans Scarlet Matte from @thebodyshop who have used their fairly traded 'Community Trade Brazil Nut Oil' from Peru in this product along with the Lash Hero Mascara which uses 'Community Trade Shea Butter'. Hair using @rahuabeauty who as well as being a natural brand partner with women from Amazonian nations such as Waorani, Achuar, Quichua, Quechua and Shuar to harvest their key ingredients Ungurahua, Sacha Inchi, and Buriti oils. Hair styling using @johnmastersorganicsusa who created their first organic haircare products in 1991 and use bottles made from the most recyclable plastic type and boxes made from 100% recycled paper with 100% soy ink. All brands are cruelty free. Beauty brands verified by @contentbeauty

And, while that doesn't sound the least bit glamorous, there's no denying she looked beautiful.

She's showing us how to be innovative when it comes to style, how to not bow down to fleeting fashion and how to actually make an impact, simply by what we wear.

The film was shown at the Odeon Leicester Square cinema to 1,600 people after a reception at the stunning Spencer House  Bespoke @emiliawickstead structural, off-the-shoulder gown with inverted pleat train.
