With the Academy Awards taking place on February 27, Suzi Amis Cameron, wife of legendary Oscar award-winning producer, director, and writer James Cameron, is calling all designers 18 and over with $75 in their pocket to think about creating a dress for her Red Carpet, Green Dress competition.

Not just any dress of course, but a sustainable red carpet stunner that Cameron will wear as she walks down the strip at the Global Green pre-Oscar Party in Hollywood, California on February 23. While none of James Cameron’s movies are up for an Oscar this year, he will be receiving a Milestone Award from The Producers Guild of America, so looking good this year is pretty important (no pressure young designer).

Last year’s winner, Jillian Granz, a Michigan State University senior majoring in apparel and textile design, was the lucky designer who was flown out to L.A. and set up in style, not to mention getting some face time with both Camerons.

The Red Carpet Green Dress contest is an international fundraising competition with all funds raised going toward the MUSE Global program and MUSE School Ca.The MUSE Global Program fully funds a school in Mae Sot, Thailand for children who have escaped the genocide in Burma (Myanmar). Approximately 50 percent of the children at MUSE School Ca. are on financial aid. This aid provides many children from under-privileged situations an opportunity to receive an education, which might otherwise not be possible.
