Cate Blanchett Wears Spoon Top at Red Carpet

Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett made a striking fashion statement at the “Borderlands” fan event in Los Angeles, donning a unique halter top crafted from 102 antique spoons. The eye-catching piece, designed by Swedish designer Ellen Hodakova Larsson, showcases the designer's commitment to sustainability and circular fashion. Hodakova, who often incorporates heirloom objects into her designs, aims to establish the first fully sustainable fashion house, challenging conventional views on fashion's environmental impact. Blanchett's choice of attire aligns with her personal values regarding sustainability in the fashion industry. The Australian star is known for her unconventional approach to red carpet fashion, often re-wearing outfits, a practice that is uncommon among her Hollywood peers. Notably, she wore a custom Alexander McQueen suit to two different premieres, four years apart, highlighting her dedication to sustainable fashion choices. In addition to her fashion choices, Blanchett has actively promoted sustainability in other areas of her career. During her tenure as artistic director of the Sydney Theatre Company, she implemented solar panels on the venue's historic rooftop in 2010, further demonstrating her commitment to environmental initiatives. Blanchett stars as Lilith in the upcoming sci-fi action film “Borderlands,” directed by Eli Roth. The film, based on the popular video game, follows a group of misfits on a quest to locate a powerful missing girl. The spoon top has previously been worn by other celebrities, including Emma Corrin and Hari Nef, showcasing its growing popularity in the realm of high fashion.
