Last night in Hollywood I attended the official launch of the Red Green Dress contest unveiled by Suzy Cameron, wife of film director/producer James Cameron at the 8th annual, star studded Global Green pre -Oscar party held at the Avalon in Hollywood. It was a glamourous event with a focus on the use of sustainable green resources in fashion. Watch the video…

Suzy Amis – actress, activist, & wife of James Cameron – launched the Red Carpet Green Dress design contest last year to benefit MUSE School CA & MUSE Global.

Red Carpet Green Dress contest is an international competition to create a dress made of sustainable materials. The 2011 winner is Samata Angel, a London- based fashion entrepreneur who was flown to Los Angeles to have her own model walk the “red” (green) carpet.

Samata Angel said, “It has been an honor to walk the green carpet with Suzy and James, two environmental pioneers who are an absolute inspiration. To have an incredible model, Aine Rose Campbell-He, wear the dress was the icing on the cake. The Red Carpet Green Dress experience is a dream realized. To design a gorgeous dress made entirely of sustainable silks and dyes, and see it in this glamorous Hollywood setting, is truly a memorable moment in my career.”

The Red Carpet Green Dress competition is a non profit organisation founded by Amis Cameron to provide resources to partner schools around the world. This includes assistance for basic operations, curriculum development and nutritious lunches for every student.

Suzy Amis Cameron said, “We must all work together to find solutions to climate change. I started Red Carpet Green Dress not only to benefit MUSE School CA and MUSE Global, but to show that sustainable design can also be beautiful. All of us wear clothing, and buying clothes that aren’t energy intensive and don’t use toxic dyes is one way we can reduce our impact. Samata Angel’s incredible gown is proof that exquisite design and sustainability can come together.
