Florence Pugh got here prepared to have one other big fashion moment at Valentino’s fall/winter 2023 show in Paris yesterday. The actress arrived wearing a gray crop top and a see-through white skirt, along with her thong underneath unabashedly on display. Pugh had her hair styled up in a topknot and kept her makeup rose-toned.
This isn’t Pugh’s first time getting noticed at a Valentino event. The actress went viral in July 2022 when she spoke out against body shamers, who maligned her for wearing a tulle pink gown with exposed nipples to the style house’s fall/winter 2022 couture show.
Listen, I knew once I wore that incredible Valentino dress that there was no way there wouldn’t be a commentary on it. Whether it’s negative or positive, all of us knew what we were doing.
I used to be excited to wear it, not a wink of me was nervous. I wasn’t before, during and even now after.
What’s been interesting to observe and witness is just how easy it’s for men to totally destroy a girl’s body, publicly, proudly, for everybody to see. You even do it together with your job titles and work emails in your bio..?
It isn’t the primary time and definitely won’t be the last time a girl will hear what’s improper along with her body by a crowd of strangers, what’s worrying is just how vulgar a few of you men could be.
Thankfully, I’ve come to terms with the intricacies of my body that make me, me. I’m blissful with all the ‘flaws’ that I couldn’t bear to take a look at once I was 14.
So a lot of you desired to aggressively let me know the way upset you were by my ‘tiny tits’, or how I ought to be embarrassed by being so ‘flat chested’.
I’ve lived in my body for a very long time. I’m fully aware of my breast size and am not afraid of it.
What’s more concerning is…. Why are you so afraid of breasts? Small? Large? Left? Right?
Just one? Perhaps none?
What. Is. So. Terrifying.
It makes me wonder what happened to you to be so content on being so loudly upset by the scale of my boobs and body..?
I’m very grateful that I grew up in a household with very strong, powerful, curvy women. We were raised to search out power within the creases of our body. To be loud about being comfortable. It has all the time been my mission on this industry to say ‘fuck it and fuck that’ every time anyone expects my body to morph into an opinion of what’s hot or sexually attractive.
I wore that dress because I do know.
If being loudly abusive towards women publicly in 2022 is really easy for you, then the reply is that it’s you who doesn’t know.
Grow up. Respect people. Respect bodies. Respect all women. Respect humans. Life will get an entire lot easier, I promise.
And all due to two cute little nipples….
Oh! The last slide is for individuals who feel more comfortable with that inch of darker skin to be covered… #fuckingfreethefuckingnipple
