Fashion world admires Natalie Portman's commitment to green
I feel like true eco-celebs in Hollywood are so few and far in between that they're looked at as a sort of rarity. And no, I'm not talking about the ones who drive hybrids because it's cool, or get naked for vegetarianism. I'm talking about those who walk the walk. Natalie Portman is the real deal and others in the fashion world are finally starting to take notice and admire her for her commitment.She recently did a guest judging stint on the hit fashion show Project Runway, and Michael Kors just couldn't get enough of this girl. He absolutely gushed about her in a blog he wrote after her appearance.
"So, the eco-challenge. Guest Judge Natalie Portman is a good style icon. I think the interesting thing about Natalie, first off, in today's world to find the balance of someone who's stylish and very chic and very smart, all at a young age. And able to really express herself about everything, including fashion. I thought she was really a fabulous addition to our pantheon of guest judges. And also particularly in this instance to talk about eco-fashion, which I think for her is very, very personal, but she's one of those girls she doesn't want to give up being stylish. So, she wants the best of both worlds, so I think she was really a great addition and I think this is something that I as a designer and everyone as designers right now is dealing with. How do we make something that is dealing with eco-friendly fabrics without it making you look like Johnny Appleseed?"
Natalie is definitely forging an eco-path in the fashion world and it's nice to see others recognizing the importance of her beliefs.
