Fully decked in Dior and without an inch of derrière in sight, Natalie Portman exemplified how to make a feminist statement that persuades instead of polarize. The actress showed up to the Academy Awards in a black cape from the French fashion house, embroidered with the names of female directors denied nominations in this year’s awards. That the show of solidarity was so subtle made it all the more powerful, standing in stark contrast with the tawdry theatrics that have hijacked displays of feminism today.
