Florence Pugh Told Nipple Display 'Unnecessary' In Sheer Braless Dress

Florence Pugh may have had celebrities defending her headline-making sheer dress in 2022, but she still wound up slammed. The Oppenheimer star, 29, made headlines that summer for braving a see-through gown at the Valentino Haute Couture Show, where she rocked up in a show-stopping, hot pink number to rep the brand she fronts. Displaying her curves while freeing the nipple, Florence left fans divided with her chest-baring outfit, and it looks like some fans thought the whole thing was "unnecessary."

Florence Pugh Stuns In Revealing Sheer Dress

Scroll for all the photos. Looking stylish as she put a modern-day twist on Valentino's classic elegance, Florence modeled a strappy maxi dress, choosing a bright pink shade and wispy sheer fabrics. Adding structure from a spiky tulle collar and cinched waist, the British sensation highlighted her hourglass figure, displaying her shapely arms and shoulders while drawing the eye to her braless curves.

Rocking her custom-made number with confidence, Florence teamed her halterneck dress with massive, hot pink platforms, also coordinating her ensemble with cuboid, blush pink ring and earring jewelry.

Posing solo and eventually with former Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, Florence made instant headlines for her look and, later, for defending her revealing fashion choice. When users on The Daily Mail reacted to Bridgerton star Regé-Jean Page defending the look, one fan replied: "Yes men are disgusting and will always bring down to the tone. But wearing a see-through dress is just begging for attention & it's always going to be negative attention."

While one fan said that Florence looked "amazing," another disagreed, writing: "At the end of the day. Showing your nips is just unnecessary whichever way you dress it up."

What She Had To Say About It

In July 2022, Florence shared the above photo on Instagram, alongside a poignant message.

Calling the dress "incredible," the actress said: "There was no way there wouldn’t be a commentary on it. Whether it be negative or positive, we all knew what we were doing." She further noted "how easy it is for men to totally destroy a woman’s body, publicly, proudly, for everyone to see." Florence equally referred to her "tiny t*ts" in a self-deprecating way, saying that she's "aware" that she's "flat-chested" while telling people to "grow" up and learn a little "respect."

The post gained over 2 million likes, including celebrity likes from singer Ariana Grande and actress Gal Gadot. Florence Pugh has since made headlines for the above look, one donned for the Dune: Part Two premiere last year. For this hooded red carpet look, she chose French luxury designer YSL.
