The history of the red carpet
The red carpet was first mentioned in Greek literature in 485 BC. At the beginning of the 20th century, a New York railway company welcomed its passengers on plush red carpets and the red carpet soon found its way into Hollywood. Today, film and gala events are unthinkable without a vintage red carpet and it also serves as an eye-catcher at advertising events (with or without fringes).
