Florence Pugh Tells 'Vulgar' Men Bothered By Her See-Through Dress To 'Grow Up'

LOADING ERROR LOADING Florence Pugh has a simple question to the sexist trolls up in arms about her see-through dress: “Why are you so scared of breasts?” The “Black Widow” star powerfully addressed the commentary swirling around the totally sheer bright pink tulle Valentino gown she rocked at the brand’s haute couture show in Rome on Friday. “It isn’t the first time and certainly won’t be the last time a woman will hear what’s wrong with her body by a crowd of strangers, what’s worrying is just how vulgar some of you men can be.” Pugh is seen arriving at the Valentino Haute Couture Fall/Winter '22/'23 fashion show on July 8 in Rome. Pugh first unveiled the gown on Instagram Saturday alongside the caption “Technically they’re covered,” which apparently was enough to satisfy the platform’s famously restrictive and often unfairly punishing nudity policy. Terrifying.” The Oscar nominee said she credits her self-acceptance to how she was raised “to find power in the creases of our body” among a household of “very strong, powerful, curvy women.” Her upbringing has informed how Pugh has pushed back against toxic beauty standards in Hollywood, including that expectation that her body should “morph into an opinion of what’s hot or sexually attractive.” “I wore that dress because I know if being loudly abusive towards women publicly in 2022 is so easy for you, then the answer is that it is you who doesn’t know,” she concluded the post alongside the hashtag #fuckingfreethefuckingnipple.
