Oppenheimer star Florence Pugh has once again addressed the “vulgar” comments regarding a nipple-revealing dress she wore in 2022, saying people are “scared” of her freedom.
The 27-year-old actress first addressed the online backlash in July last year, shortly after she wore a sheer Valentino dress to the label’s haute couture show in Rome.
She hit back at those that slammed her for showing off her, “two cute little nipples”, saying she knew there would be “no way there wouldn’t be a commentary on it”.
“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 … 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,” she wrote at the time.
In a recent interview with Elle, the Don’t Worry Darling star told the magazine that people were scared of her freedom and that she is “comfortable and happy”.
“Keeping women down by commenting on their bodies has worked for a very long time,” she added.
