Emma Watson’s Met Gala gown sent a bold message to the fashion industry

Emma Watson knows how to rock a red carpet, and the Met Gala on May 2, 2016, in New York City was no different.




The event's theme was "Fashion in an Age of Technology," and Watson totally nailed it.

Not only was her gown stunning in and of itself, it was also created using sustainable products.


As Watson explained, the gown combined "creativity, technology, and fashion" to send a bold message about curbing waste.

"I am proud to say it is truly sustainable and represents a connection between myself and all the people in the supply chain who played a role in creating it," she wrote on Facebook.
