Exclusive: Behind the Scenes at the Premiere of Butter
It was so nice to reunite with the cast of Butter for the film’s premiere in NYC! Here’s a video I shot right before I stepped out onto the red carpet:
Two companies worth mentioning among the sponsors for the premiere were: Rent the Runway and Forevermark. Rent the Runway is where I got my dress. It’s such a great concept! Anyone who wants a nice dress can rent a designer dress for a very reasonable price. Rent the Runway’s dresses are used over and over. It’s a much more eco option than buying a brand new dress you’ll only wear once.
I also wore diamonds from Forevermark. They’re sourced far more responsibly than your regular diamond. Forevermark mines maintain strict standards for minimizing environmental impact, treating employees fairly, and participating in the communities where they are located. You can learn more about their practices here. For shoes, I wore Steve Madden’s vegan black pumps. Simple, and super kind!

This movie was such a joy to work on, and there are a few fun little vegan nuggets in the script. I’m not going to spill what they are yet though - you’ll have to look for them when you watch it!
Behind the Scenes: On the Set of Butter
Butter opens in select cities Friday, October 5. If you can’t make it to the theater, you can also watch it On Demand or download it on iTunes.
What’s your favorite way to watch movies: in the theater, on your home television, or on your computer?

Ooh I can't wait for the movie to come out where I live (NorCal). It looks super funny & cute. And has two of my fav veg actresses in it =)
My hubby and I don't tend to go to the movies often, we like to borrow from the library or check out free ones on youtube, but every once in awhile, we like to check a cool looking one out in theatres. He's excited to see it too! -
I just wanted to say I watched Butter this weekend and loved it! It was fun to see you play a vegan as well. Congrats on a great movie! -

One word - Awesome!
Dress is elegant, eco-friendly concept is genius, and "kind" accessories rock. Does not get better than that!!!

You look absolutely stunning, Miss Silverstone, and 'Rent the Runway', great concept. An ordinary person can appreciate it, and it's down to earth. Have a lovely day, Alicia! xox.
