It pointed out the elephant in the room: That for all the talk about climate change and the need for action, an awards show itself must have a massive carbon footprint . There are the private jets, the black cars, the teams of people, the energy required to actually stage the event, the waste… and, of course, the red carpet.
In light of the crisis in Australia—which we’ve known about since September, FYI—the pomp and circumstance of the red carpet already felt a bit icky. Wasn’t this a golden opportunity to harness its influence and say something about fashion’s role in climate change—to wear something sustainable, upcycled, organic, or vintage? Or to at least illustrate how our daily choices, like what we wear, affect the world around us? Apparently not.
