The red carpet acts as the foundation for today’s award ceremonies, galas, and premieres around the world. It distinguishes celebrities from the rest of us. Moreover, it serves as a catwalk for famous people to showcase trendsetting fashion styles from their favorite designers. The clothes worn to award ceremonies are constantly scrutinized by the international media, making the red carpet an important international product placement area for fashion designers. Any outfit celebs opt for can make them go viral or turn into a meme.
While many stars utilize their unique outfits to attract people’s attention or earn themselves fame, others use them to send secret messages to the world or sometimes a certain special person. For example, Margot Robbie brought a Judith Leiber clutch to the “Peter Rabbit” film premiere as a way to attribute to the film she was in.
