Honorable Mention: Elizabeth Banks

Although Elizabeth didn’t walk the red carpet, she nonetheless made a bold statement of sustainability at the Vanity Fair after party, opting to pull a dress from her own personal collection. She donned the same scarlett Badgley Mischka dress that she wore to the 2004 Oscars. She reminded us that going green doesn’t mean you can’t still own the red carpet.
