Florence Pugh is an English star who has impressed the audience with her excellent work. Pugh has been nominated for the Academy Award and the BAFTA for her impressive performance in the period drama film, Little Women. Pugh has starred in movies like The Falling, Lady Macbeth, Fighting with My Family, Midsommar, Black Widow, and many more. Pugh recently addressed the issue of the negative comments she received after wearing a Valentino gown last year which exposed her br*asts.
Florence Pugh Slammed The Haters
Last year the Little Women star attended the Valentino show in Rome, wearing a stunning pink sheer dress. The actress gained lots of praise but even more hatred for wearing no bra under her transparent dress. Pugh confidently embraced her body by choosing her own dress, irrespective of the already set societal norms. Pugh talked about the amount of hate she received from the internet while sharing a strong message of body positivity.
“I’ve never been scared of what’s underneath the fabric. If I’m happy in it, then I’m gonna wear it. Of course, I don’t want to offend people, but I think my point is: How can my n*pples offend you that much? It’s very important that we do this. I know that some people might scoff at me saying that, but if a dress with my breasts peeking through is encouraging people to say, ‘Well, if you were to get raped, you would deserve it,’ it just shows me that there’s so much more work to do.”

Florence Pugh’s Free N*pple Movement
The Midsommar actress didn’t let the internet critics stop her and became vocal to make her stance clear. She wrote a lengthy Instagram post while sharing her uncensored pics in the pink Valentino dress. Pugh’s words slammed the haters as she addressed the male chauvinistic society. While dealing with all the misogynist comments she received, the Little Women actress made it clear that she will continue wearing clothes as per her will while admiring her body, no matter what size or shape it is.
“I was comfortable with my small br*asts. And showing them like that—it aggravated that I was comfortable. It was just alarming, how perturbed they were. They were so angry that I was confident, and they wanted to let me know that they would never w*nk over me. Well, don’t.”
Florence Pugh shared that she is just an ordinary human. The Black Widow actress made a very obvious point that she too is a normal woman and faces the same problem in her daily life.
“Yes, I can put makeup on and look good for a premiere. But at the end of the day, I still have hair on the top of my lip and I still smell after a workout and I still get spots when I’m stressed,”
The Lady Macbeth star stood on her words and determination to rebel against the small-minded society by wearing another br*ast exposing Valentino’s dress. Pugh has surely set examples for many women to embrace their natural bodies irrespective of the potential body shaming they will receive from society.
