Reese Witherspoon And Laura Dern Continue To Support Time's Up At Critics' Choice Awards
I think by looking at it you know that it's black and there's an important reason tonight why I'm wearing black. And I'm comfortable in my own skin and the dress is comfortable. That's why I'm wearing it. [MUSIC] I got on board pretty fast with Time's Up. Time's up on the silence that so many folks have felt they've had to be in for far too long. I'm wearing Rasario and they're very, very happy to be a part of this whole initiative. It feels like a turning point, it feels like this is a big shift. Being on The Real is very important for me To stand up for women. Mm hm. I was very honored to wear black, everyone looks good in it, number one, it's slimming, and it means a lot to everyone to stand in solidarity and to know that you're supported. I think it's really important to stand with woman in this industry, and the male survivors This industry as well. Especially in Rap people have been outspoken in that way to come together as a collective. You know, it's sympolic really. It's not the whole thing but it's sympolic of everything that's going on. It's just a show from a visual perspective like the solidarity and that everyone is together. On this and I think that's powerful. I had a option of why in black and obviously we're all in black for solidarity against sexual assualt. I've actually had my eye on this dress for months, like I was like, when can I wear that dress? And then we kind of felt like because of the big movement, we were like we're gonna do that one but it has a little bit of Golden Globe touch to it, so we were like, okay, it's good. Was not hard for me to wear a black dress. At all It's a pretty overwhelming and thrilling ceremony and to hear the extraordinary solidarity for gender equality both in Hollywood which has this really ospicious opportunity to lead and across all industries in our country it's been a very special night. I feel quite gitty
Black was the colour on the Golden Globes red carpet on Sunday, and for very good reason. Celebrities banded together to wear the shade to protest sexual harassment in the workplace as part of the Time's Up movement, and it looks like the Globes won't be the only awards show where celebrities wear black.
Case in point: Big Little Lies co-stars and founding Time's Up members, Reese Witherspoon and Laura Dern, who both chose to wear black to the Critics' Choice Awards. Not only did they continue to make a statement, but they both looked gorgeous, as per usual.
Witherspoon wore an A-line Prada dress that featured crystal embellishments that punctuated the LBD, which she paired with Roger Vivier heels. Meanwhile, Dern wore a very chic Balmain jumpsuit.
It wasn't just the BLL besties who decided to wear black. Emilia Clarke, Margot Robbie, Rachel Bloom, and Nick Jonas also chose the shade. While it may not be expressly for Time's Up, the colour is inextricably linked to the movement. So whether they're trying to make a statement or not, black has become the colour of protest for the season.
