Florence Pugh Ditches Pants For Valentino's New Rockstud Campaign

Florence Pugh's fashion domination continues as she is the newest star to officially join the Valentino family. The "Don't Worry Darling" actor was revealed as the face of the Italian fashion house on April 26 as she showcases the iconic Valentino Rockstud bags and shoes in a series of gorgeous images shot by fashion photographer Steven Meisel.

In the photos, Pugh can be seen expressing a range of emotions, from shock to joy, while holding the Rockstud bag in a range of colorways, including Barbiecore-pink and metallic silver. And she wasn't about to let clothes distract from the accessories at hand. For the six campaign images, styled by Joe McKenna, Pugh can be seen rocking the pants-less trend in plunging bodysuits and studded heels, as well as off-the-shoulder dresses and printed co-ords.

Pugh's glam squad followed the theme with looks that complemented her informal outfits. Pat McGrath was responsible for her makeup, which features her signature eyeliner flick, dewy skin, and matte nude lip, while Guido Palau kept movement in her blonde bob, which was swept away from her face with a side part. Nail artist Dawn Sterling also deserves an extra shoutout for Pugh's nails, which feature a nude manicure adorned with a single crystal stud on each nail, in keeping with the campaign.

"It's not just a face, it's a real partnership based on trust and respect. I met Florence right after my couture show, and I was impressed by her intelligence and bravery, the way she stand [sic] for herself, the ability to handle any circumstances with such grace and acumen," creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli wrote on Instagram on April 26. "Maybe it's thanks to her job or maybe this is the reason why she choose [sic] to be an actress in the first place. What is actually relevant to me is that this young, fierce talented actress became a friend of mine and together we decided to embark in this campaign. Rockstud is a statement of its own and Florence [sic] interpretation of it is exactly what I had in mind to tell this story."

Pugh has long been a fan of Valentino designs, having worn a side-boob-baring dress for the "A Good Person" premiere in March, a see-through, thong-exposing skirt for Valentino's Fall/Winter show at Paris Fashion Week, and a nude dress for the cover of Vanity Fair, to name a few. Furthermore, Pugh made headlines after she defiantly addressed body-shamers who criticized her hot-pink see-through dress at the Valentino Haute Couture show, which led to her meeting Piccioli. Now, as the face of the brand, she's certainly had the last laugh.

"Working with talented people is one thing, but to work with talented people who are great friends feeds the soul! And this campaign truly did feed the soul. Thank you for letting me be me," Pugh added on her own Instagram. And the adoration for her didn't end there. Zendaya, who has also starred in Valentino campaigns, commented with heart eye emojis, and the pair exchanged notes about when they are seeing each other next. Do we spy a Valentino mashup coming?

The Boob-Window Trend Is All Over the Red Carpet From Sydney Sweeney to Chlöe

The boob window is the new trend in celebrity dressing making waves this year, both on and off the red carpet. As early as January, in fact, Lori Harvey stepped out to celebrate her 26th birthday in the LBD version of the look, flaunting an asymmetrical midi from The Attico with a chest cutout that circled her cleavage, and was further amplified by an attention-grabbing neck-tie sash. The outfits that follow often resemble halter silhouettes, although not all of these numbers boast a strap on each side. Sydney Sweeney is the latest style icon to give it a go, opting for a brown silk gown that she wore alongside model Izabel Goulart while vacationing in Ibiza. For a night out, the 25-year-old " Euphoria " star rocked her one-shoulder design with gold jewelry, dewy makeup, and her bright blonde hair in loose waves. The bodice of her dress was secured near her collar bone, where fabric from one side was pulled through a loop at the other, wrapping around to the back. The r...

Candice Huffine: "Size Does Not Equal Health, and Weight Does Not Equal Worth"

Image Source: Luvlette Born in Washington DC and raised in a Maryland suburb, Candice Huffine did a little bit of everything when she was growing up, from being captain of the cheerleading squad to taking her turn as a pageant queen. "It was 'typical' in a Hallmark movie kind of way, I guess," Huffine tells POPSUGAR. "These details are important to mention because they did influence my life path. I willingly put myself on a stage at every turn - and not always kind ones - to do the things I loved or to follow a dream I had." Huffine, 39, signed her first modeling contract in 2000. She was "determined" to be a model, despite the fashion industry being notoriously discriminatory toward plus-size people. Knowing the odds were stacked against her propelled Huffine even further toward realizing her dream. "When I received a contract as a plus-size model, it unlocked a new mission in me: to not pursue modeling just for myself, but to push har...
