Florence Pugh Debuts Her New Valentino Campaign & Chats About The Upcoming Met Gala
Florence Pugh is the new face of Valentino! The young actress and fashion brand made the announcement yesterday, April 26, with the release of their new campaign.
Photographed by Steven Meisel in New York City, Florence can be seen posing with numerous Rockstud bags for this new campaign. Florence will continue her partnership with the brand by attending the upcoming Met Gala, her first one, with Valentino.
In a recent article for the New York Times, she opened up about joining the brand, stating “We had this FaceTime, and at the end we both said it feels like we’ve been mates for decades. Now we send each other pictures of each other on Instagram a lot. He’s become best friends with my dad. We’re completely in each other’s lives.”
She also hinted a bit about her Met Gala gown, stating “It’s big, but we like big, don’t we? When I’m on those red carpets, there is so much pressure because you’re either selling a movie or trying to make a moment. They’re nerve-racking. The whole point is that you are expressing yourself with what you are wearing. Every time I step out in whatever dress, that’s a version of me that I’m really proud of. So it doesn’t matter if people don’t necessarily like it. I don’t think anything that I do has to be 100 percent loved. Things being up for debate is good. It means people are interested.”
