Cate also chose to wear jewellery by Chopard. Launched in 2013 in partnership with Eco-Age, The Journey to Sustainable Luxury is Chopard’s commitment to sourcing responsibly and helping the real people in its supply chain who are all too often overlooked. This year Chopard announced that by July 2018, Chopard will use 100% Ethical Gold in its jewellery and watch creations.
‘For Cannes this year the GCC is very proud to work with screen talent and fashion stylists who are highly engaged in reform of the global fashion industry,’ says Livia Firth, Creative Director of Eco-Age, the home of the GCC, ‘They are powerful advocates of change. Between them they will showcase re-worn, low impact materials and cutting edge eco design principles including digital printing.’
‘All of our GCC looks in Cannes this year, highlight the strides that designers and stylists are taking. Each look moves us further down the road towards a sustainable industry. It is no longer far-fetched to imagine that we will soon have mainstream red carpet events entirely featuring sustainable looks. I believe that day is around the corner.’
