The 2020 BAFTAs have started in London, with stars arriving on the red carpet in spectacular style.
This year, the British Film Academy urged attendees to think sustainably when it came to their red carpet choices, asking that they wear vintage, recycle a piece they’ve worn previously or support designers for whom sustainability is front of mind.
Stars including Margot Robbie, Emilia Clarke (who shone in a column gown by Schiaparelli), Vanessa Kirby (in a cool Valentino look), Charlize Theron (in Dior), Saoirse Ronan (in Gucci) were in attendance at today’s event.
As with every year, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are in attendance for the glittering night, with Kate taking the academy’s note to heart, rewearing a piece by Alexander McQueen that she first wore eight years ago to a state dinner in Malaysia.
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.
Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
