Florence Pugh Dazzles in Sparkling Gothic Glam at Thunderbolts London Premiere

The Oscar-nominated star stuns in a daring sheer gown, commanding attention with her bold style and signature confidence on the red carpet.

Florence Pugh brought her signature fashion bravado to the Thunderbolts London premiere, turning Cineworld Leicester Square into a runway of gothic glamour on April 22, 2025. The 29-year-old Oscar nominee and Marvel sensation arrived in a jaw-dropping black gown that married sultry elegance with high-fashion edge, proving once again why she’s a red carpet favorite.

The intricately designed gown, featuring lace tulle panels and sequin floral appliqués, revealed glimpses of skin with a bold peekaboo effect. A corseted bodice framed Pugh’s silhouette, while sheer layers exposed her legs and midsection with tasteful drama. The look was completed with black strappy heels that wrapped delicately around her ankles, peeking through the transparent fabric.

Pugh’s glam was as striking as her gown. Fiery red eyeshadow created a graphic cat-eye effect, drawing all attention to her eyes. Keeping the focus up top, the rest of her makeup was understated—nude lipstick, a soft blush, and slicked-back blonde bob ensured nothing detracted from the bold eye moment. She accessorized with geometric black drop earrings and coordinating rings and bracelets, enhancing the sleek gothic aesthetic.

No stranger to pushing fashion boundaries, Pugh has consistently embraced daring, skin-baring looks with unapologetic confidence. From her iconic sheer Valentino couture gown in 2022 to this latest red carpet moment, she continues to challenge norms and champion body positivity. Her 2022 appearance sparked conversation after critics commented on her exposed chest. Her response, shared on Instagram, was as fierce as it was empowering: “Respect people. Respect bodies. Respect all women. Respect humans… And all because of two cute little nipples.”

Now reprising her role as Yelena Belova in Thunderbolts, Pugh stars alongside Marvel veterans Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes), David Harbour (Red Guardian), Wyatt Russell (John Walker), Olga Kurylenko (Taskmaster), Hannah John-Kamen (Ghost), and Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Valentina Allegra de Fontaine). The film brings together an “irreverent team-up” of the MCU’s least expected misfits, promising action, complexity, and plenty of attitude.

As Florence Pugh continues to make bold strides both onscreen and on the red carpet, she proves she’s not just a force in film—but a fashion powerhouse unafraid to bare her soul and style for the world to see.
