Prabal Gurung and Olivia Wilde

Actress Olivia Wilde joined the CFDA’s Steven Kolb and New York-based fashion designers Prabal Gurung and Maria Cornejo on Wednesday night at Le Turtle for the kick off of the CFDA + Lexus Fashion* Initiative. The project encourages brands to strive for sustainable and socially responsible practices, and will award three designers with a cash prize to continue their work. It’s become clear recently that the green carpet is the new red carpet—and activists like Wilde just need something environmentally friendly to wear. See all the photos from the event here.
