Lex Jurgen - May 4, 2016
Emma Watson can't stop rescuing mankind. Whether it be rapping about gender pay gaps or rescuing the world from its trash epidemic, Hermione has a spell to fix it. Watson showed up to the Met Gala in New York in a dress that Calvin Klein and his teen boy army crafted almost entirely out of recycled plastic bottle yarn. She wiped the tops first of course.
Consumers underestimate the power that they have. If you buy something, do you think you would wear it 30 times? And if you commit to that, it's a sustainable purchase.
I've worn these jeans I'm in five hundred times or more. I don't like to brag, but I'm sort of a super environmentalist. If there's some kind of sex prize, I could go to a thousand.
Watson claims the use of the recycled plastic threads and organic only silk and cotton additions are a feminist issue since most of the third world traditional garment factory workers are female. She's not quite clear on what happens to the women of Bangladesh once they lose their shitty factory jobs. Perhaps Sarah Lawrence for four years of Art History studies?
Now that the dress has been repurposed into clothing, it can't actually be recycled again into anything else. Details. As Watson notes, fashion should be on the leading edge of innovation, because let a completely arbitrary elite pastime provide the vehicle for social progress. Stay away from lit candles. Just saying. There are plastic fires still burning from the 70's. Next up, sustainable champagne and luxury yachts. You have to start somewhere.
