How Emma Watson Rocked The Fashion Scene In A Recycled Dress
Facebook

Emma Watson attended the MET Gala that raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The MET Gala has a theme every year that the guests abide by very well. The theme of the Gala this year was Manus x Machina: Fashion in the Age of Technology. Emma Watson worked to help create an amazing dress that implemented that theme. Emma Watson's dress is made of recycled bottles woven into three different fabrics.

Emma Watson's Dress at the Met Gala

Emma Watson worked with Calvin Klein and Eco-Age to create this dress. Eco-Age is a group that promotes wearing clothing that can be worn more than once and is encouraging celebrities to adorn environmentally friendly clothing on the red carpet. Emma's dress was styled into five different pieces so that they can be used for further use. Emma Watson works with the 30 wears campaign that is trying to promote only buying clothing that can be used at least 30 times.

" It is my intention to repurpose elements of the gown for future use. The trousers can be worn on their own, as can the bustier, the train can be used for a future red carpet look… I’m looking forward to experimenting with this. Truly beautiful things should be worn again and again and again. ‪#‎30wears‬"
-Emma Watson


Emma shows the fashion and technology in this world mixing to create something beautiful. As a feminist and an activist, Emma Watson works to make the world a better and informed place. This dress has caught the attention of many people in the world. I hope that this dress and its importance inspires you to look into environmentally friendly clothing, I sure will.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
