and Carineh Martin have founded Red Carpet Advocacy, an agency that forms partnerships between talent, brands, and non-profits to raise awareness and money for charities. “Any authentic conversation must start with talent,” says Phillips, a costume designer whose most recent project is.
What they do pay attention to is when a bold-facer wears something twice—or, heaven forbid, more often than that. The fashion police consensus? It’s always been a big no-no. But that might be changing. Stylist Elizabeth Stewart’s clients Cate Blanchett and Julia Roberts regularly re-wear looks.
