Florence Pugh has never been one to shy away from a stop-and-stare red carpet moment, and 2022 was no different. Whether covered in a rich color or sporting a daring sheer silhouette, Pugh’s penchant to favor the bold continued throughout this year’s press junkets for Olivia Wilde’s psychological thriller Don’t Worry Darling and Sebastián Lelio’s period drama The Wonder.
We’ve been gifted an ample amount of excellent style statements from the Academy Award-nominated actress throughout 2022. With the help of her longtime stylist Rebecca Corbin-Murray, Pugh embraced boudoir chic, with feathers, flowing chiffon, slinky silk slips, lace and lace-up corsets.
Opting for both established high-end designers like Pierpaolo Piccioli’s Valentino, Kate and Laura Mulleavy’s Rodarte, Victoria Beckham, and smaller labels like Alessandra Rich, Galvan London, Emilia Wickstead and Halpern, Pugh’s stylistic range is as expansive as her acting.
With a slew of new projects set to be released in 2023, Pugh will star in ex-boyfriend Zach Braff’s film, A Good Person with Morgan Freeman, and Christopher Nolan’s forthcoming epic Oppenheimer, alongside a star-studded cast including Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr., Gary Oldman and more. Pugh will also star as Princess Irulan Corrino in Dune: Part Two alongside Zendaya and her Little Women co-star Timothée Chalamet.

Carrying a glittering pink Roman Stud shoulder bag, the Academy Award nominee adorned the brand’s signature Roman studs as earrings, peaking through her slicked back blonde lob.
Pugh faced an unexpected amount of backlash from internet trolls commented on her body, and clapped back at the shammers on Instagram. “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,” wrote Pugh. “Thankfully, I’ve come to terms with the intricacies of my body that make me, me.
