Celebrities hit the red carpet in all black for the annual BAFTA in solidarity for Time’s Up movement.

 

From flowing couture gowns to slick pantsuits, it was a blackout at the awards celebrating the best of British cinematography, with many choosing Christian Dior. It was the Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, who stood out for wearing an emerald green Jenny Packham gown for royal protocol reasons. Many suggest that black is usually reserved for funerals and memorial services, while others believe it’s due to the fact that royal rules dictate members of the royal family are discouraged from making political statements of any kind.

 

As for the rest of the attendees, the black dress code is something that we have seen and will continue to see throughout the award season. Click through the gallery above for our edit of the best dressed.
