Watson has created a new Instagram account to document all the sustainable fashion she will wear on her upcoming Beauty and the Beast tour. Dubbed, The Press Tour, in a mere 24 hours she has garnered 225,000 followers.

Watson, who will play Belle in the Disney remake, started the mammoth press tour this weekend in Paris ahead of the March 17th release.
