Emma attended last night’s MTV Movie & TV Awards in a cocktail dress from Kitx – an Australian label known for its ethical and sustainable fashion.

She received the Best Actor in a Movie award for her role as Belle in Disney’s live-action remake of “Beauty and the Beast.”

Notably, this awards ceremony was the first major one to introduce gender-neutral categories, allowing both male and female actors to compete together.

Emma Watson praised the significance of this step, emphasizing that it underscores the idea that acting is about empathy and understanding different perspectives.

“The first acting award in history that doesn’t separate nominees based on their sex says something about how we perceive the human experience,” she said.

“MTV’s move to create a genderless award for acting will mean something different to everyone. But to me, it indicates that acting is about the ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. And that doesn’t need to be separated into two different categories. This is very meaningful to me.”

The drape dress included an embellished asymmetric design likely made of recycled plastic.
