LOS ANGELES, March 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Melanie Miller was the epitome of old Hollywood glam, Sunday March 12th at the 95th Academy awards, in a dazzling silk emerald green custom couture gown, with crystal embellishments designed by Renee Cafaro, head designer and founder of Renee Cafaro Atelier. Miller and her team won for Best Feature Film Documentary, Navalny. On the red carpet and the awards stage, she stunned in a one-shoulder one-of-a-kind piece inspired by the drama of classic Hollywood movies and screen sirens. "Movement and balanced glamour are a must. When I thought of this gown for the Oscars I wanted to emulate silver screen icons, lots of Hollywood regency glam, draped silks and well-chosen accent pieces to ensure the dress shines," the designer explains.

In addition to her design prowess, Renee Cafaro was uniquely suited to create for this nominee as she is also an advocate for social justice and political freedom, making her passionate about the subject matter of the award-winning documentary.
