From her Oscar-winning turn in Little Women to her scene-stealing role in Don’t Worry Darling, there’s no doubt that Florence Pugh’s acting skills have garnered her many fans.
But the 26-year-old actor has amassed an increasing number of admirers off-screen for her fashion choices, too.
In recent months, the Hollywood star has put a particularly stylish foot forward and wowed in a number of stunning ensembles at red carpet premieres and fashion shows alike.
A close relationship with Valentino has meant that Pugh and her stylist, Rebecca Corbin-Murray, have often turned to the fashion house for big events over the years.
Not least for her incredible sheer pink, nipple-baring look at the Valentino Haute Couture fashion show earlier this year sparked much debate and prompted the star to defend her sartorial decisions.

“Listen, I knew when I wore that incredible Valentino dress that there was no way there wouldn’t be a commentary on it,” Pugh wrote on Instagram.
“What’s been interesting to watch and witness is just how easy it is for men to totally destroy a woman’s body, publicly, proudly, for everyone to see,” she continued.
“What’s more concerning is…. Why are you so scared of breasts? Small? Large? Left? Right? Only one? Maybe none?” she added. “What. Is. So. Terrifying.”
Elsewhere, Pugh and Corbin-Murray – who is also behind the fashion-forward looks from the likes of Lily James, Gemma Chan and Simone Ashley – have since experimented with the soft lace of Rodarte and gilded glamour of Louis Vuitton.
One thing’s for sure, Pugh’s daring approach to red carpet fashion always keeps us guessing – and we can’t wait to see what she wears at forthcoming premieres, fashion shows and awards seasons.
In the meantime, take a look back at some of the film star’s most head-turning ensembles…
Pretty in pink
Pugh looked every bit the Hollywood princess in a bright pink Valentino gown complete with ruffles and sheer detailing in Rome in July 2022.
However, the ensemble – which she wore to the Valentino Haute Couture fashion show – prompted some “vulgar” comments, and the star defended the nipple-baring look on Instagram.
Sheer beauty
Undeterred by the criticism, the star wore sheer Valentino again during Paris Fashion Week in October 2022.
Accessorising her matching long-sleeved crop top and skirt, she clutched an elegant white handbag.
Flying in style
In September, the actress exhibited the most perfect, stylish airport look we’ve seen in a while when she arrived at the Venice International Film Festival in September 2022.
She wore a coordinated crop top, shorts and skirt by Valentino, along with a handbag and heels in complementary shades of purple.
Hollywood sparkle
During the same trip to the Venice International Film Festival, Pugh then sparkled bright in a dramatic, black Valentino ensemble.
She posed on the red carpet, ahead of the Don’t Worry Darling screening, alongside her glamorous grandmother Pat.
Chic in black
For the opening of the Tiffany & Co. exhibition in June 2022, the star opted for a lacy, black matching top and skirt by New Zealand-born designer Emilia Wickstead.
She finished off her look with some striking Tiffany jewels, her silver nose ring and long-sleeved black gloves, giving an edgy twist to her lace look.
Winning in blue
The actress picked up her first Oscar for Little Women at the 92nd Annual Academy Awards in February 2022.
For the most important occasion in the film calendar, she opted for a stunning silky, teal blue ruffled gown by Louis Vuitton.
Turning heads at the BAFTAs
Shortly afterwards, at the EE British Academy Film Awards in March 2022, the actress wowed in a long-sleeved, button-front Carolina Herrera LBD.
However, always keeping things fun, her look came complete with a bubblegum pink train.
Pretty in purple
Proving she has been an emerging style icon for a number of years, Pugh posed up a storm at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ 11th Annual Governors Awards in October 2019.
She accessorised her frilly, purple Valentino dress with a pair of chunky black heels and an elegant up-do.
Striking in black
The star’s latest sheer look is a sparkly, black dress by Rodarte – which she wore to the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences in October 2022.
She accessorised with sleek blonde hair, red lipstick and a silver nose ring.
