Stella McCartney Showing Eco Film “Home” At West Hollywood Store
Written by Vegetarian Star on June 1st, 2009 in Environment-Eco-Green, Fashion.
Vegetarian fashion designer Stella McCartney will be hosting a screening of Home in her West Hollywood store on World Environment Day, June 5.
Home is the masterpiece of filmmaker Yann Arthus-Bertrand, and features shots of the Earth taken from the air.
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia, Pantanal Wetlands near Brazil, and the Niger River in Mali are just a few of the shots taken of 54 countries in 217 days.
Several fashion gurus other than Stella are joining in the celebrated release of the film by offering limited edition sustainable items.
Gucci will feature an organic cotton T-shirt, Sergio Rossi a sustainable shoe called the “Eco Pump,” and Yves Saint Laurent organic cotton and tote bags.
Home is backed by PPR, the parent company of these luxury designer brands. A portion of all profits go to the environmental non-profit Goodplanet.org.
