"Harry Potter" star Emma Watson's Met Gala outfit was made from recycled plastic bottles.

With the help from Eco Age, Calvin Klein Collection created an off-the-shoulder bustier, wide-leg tailored pants and a long detachable train for the 26-year-old actress.

And unlike the other gowns that will never be worn again, separate pieces from Watson's outfit can be used again.

"...The stunning @EmmaWatson on the #RedCarpet at the Met Ball in a look crafted by the incredible team at @Calvinklein. With the help of @ecoage this 5 piece look is created from 3 fabrics woven from yarns all made from recycled plastic bottles," Watson's stylist Sarah Slutsky wrote on Instagram.
 

"Plastic is one of the biggest pollutants - being able to turn this waste into a high quality material is a real success story. Also this beautiful look was designed with the intention to be repurposed for future use; the pants can be worn on their own, the train can be used for another red carpet - the ultimate #30Wears! #MetGala2016," she wrote.
