Celebrating Impact, Elevating Wellness, and Giving Back in Style—In a city known for lights, cameras, and opulence, veteran producer Debbie Durkin is flipping the script with the 18th annual ECOLUXE Pre-Oscars Luxury Lounge—a sun-soaked celebration with soul. This year’s highly anticipated event returns to a private estate in Beverly Hills, uniting luxury, sustainability, and philanthropy to benefit LA firefighters, fire victims, and Marley’s Mutts Dog Rescue Ranch, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit saving lives one paw at a time.
A Red Carpet With a Conscience
In the high-stakes world of pre-Oscar glam, ECOLUXE stands out not just for who attends, but for why they show up. The lounge serves as a platform for emerging and purpose-driven brands to align with A-list talent, all while making an impact that lasts longer than an awards speech. Anchored by the “Creating New Memories” Heroes & Survivors Portrait Studio, celebrity photographer David Christopher Lee will immortalize first responders and survivors with striking portraits that speak volumes.
The 2025 lounge welcomed a powerful lineup of actors and entertainers showing up in support of the cause. ‘Mission Impossible’ star Esai Morales added gravitas to the afternoon, while Oscar-nominated producer, actress, and author Lee Broda was seen cuddling a rescue pup from Marley’s Mutts. Kate Flannery of ‘The Office’ and ‘Night Court’ brought her signature charm, as did Emmy nominee Spencer Garrett from HBO’s ‘Winning Time.’ Also in attendance were ‘Real Housewives of Dubai’ star Taleen Marie, actress Toks Olagundoye, NFL player Ray-Ray McCloud III (Atlanta Falcons), and Emmy-winning actor Kristos Andrews with actress Michelle McBride—proof that when community calls, Hollywood answers.

Sustainable Style Meets Mindful Innovation
At its core, ECOLUXE is a launchpad for innovation. Fayah Athletics brings fashion-forward streetwear with a fireproof message of empowerment and performance, while Ettitude’s bamboo bedding turns bedtime into a zero-waste sanctuary. UltraSculpt.org’s medical experts offer body contouring with a holistic twist, and Drip IV Therapy keeps A-listers and athletes hydrated with precision IV blends.
Solodome creates next-gen event experiences with modular luxury domes for meditation, relaxation, and pop-up wellness. From Lima Concierge’s bespoke lifestyle services to Ellovi’s all-natural skincare, each partner represents a step toward a more conscious way of living.
A Taste of Purpose
Award-winning Executive Chef Denise Smith of Gennie Bee Catering will dazzle with soul-nourishing, conscious cuisine. SHOYU-X Foods brings globally-inspired umami magic, and Reserva De La Torre Tequila elevates every pour with heritage-rich, small-batch agave spirits. Practicality Skincare and Kini-sh bring fresh takes to clean beauty, while guests can snuggle up to adoptable pups from Marley’s Mutts—because wellness isn’t just for humans.
Why It Matters: More Than a Gifting Suite
The ECOLUXE Lounge doesn’t just pamper, it amplifies. It’s a bridge between Hollywood, heroism, and humanity. By shining a spotlight on brands that prioritize environmental stewardship, personal well-being, and pet welfare, Debbie Durkin has redefined what it means to “do good” in Hollywood. The event proves that luxury and purpose aren’t mutually exclusive—they’re a power couple.
2025’s Must-Attend Oscar Week Event
As sustainability and social responsibility continue to shape entertainment, ECOLUXE is more than a lounge—it’s a movement. It’s where celebrities connect with products that matter, where media covers more than just what someone wore, and where philanthropy meets the red carpet with grit and grace.
