Firth Brings Green to the Red Carpet

The red carpet is going green, and no, I'm not referring to the striking emerald gowns spotted at this year's Golden Globes. This awards season, Livia Firth, wife of Oscar-nominated Colin Firth, threw down the sustainable-clothing gauntlet with her "Green Carpet Challenge." (be sure to check out her blog!)

At the Globes we saw her sporting a hand-dyed, peace-silk gown created by Prophetik, a Nashville-based designer at the forefront of eco-friendly formal wear.

With hubby Colin as a front runner for Best Actor at next week's Academy Awards, Livia will most certainly give us a second look at sustainable glamor. No word on the designer yet, but I'm sure it will be green.

Readers--do you try to support sustainable fashion? What are your favorite green brands?
