Known for her eco-friendly dressing style, Emma Watson looked ravishing in Calvin Klein black and white ensemble at 2016 Met Gala, held in New York. However, many must not have known that the actress' garb was entirely made out of recycled plastic bottles.

The 26-year-old actress wore off-the-shoulder gown, wide-leg tailored pants and a long detachable train that was made using one of three materials, sustainable cotton, satin or taffeta to keep up with the 'Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology' theme, E! Online reports.

The outfit was created through a collaboration of Watson, Calvin Klein and Eco-Age, a organization that spearheaded the Green Carpet challenge for sustainable fashion.

 

Watson's stylist, Sarah Slutsky, wrote on her Instagram, "Plastic is one of the biggest pollutants - being able to turn this waste into a high quality material is a real success story."

The 2016 Met Gala was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday with biggies like Taylor Swift, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Madonna among others in attendance.
