At the Oppenheimer premiere on Wednesday, July 12, Florence Pugh came to the rescue as Emily Blunt's fashion guardian angel. Blunt, aged 40, found herself on the verge of a wardrobe disaster when her blazer unexpectedly popped open while she walked the red carpet in London. However, Pugh, aged 27, swiftly positioned herself between Blunt and the cameras, concealing the fashion mishap from view. In a quiet whisper, Pugh reassured Blunt with the words, "I've got you," prompting both of them to burst into laughter. They embraced each other and proceeded to strike poses for the awaiting photographers.
Despite the unfortunate incident, Blunt appeared stunning in a stylish Dolce & Gabbana ensemble adorned with black buttons, flared trousers, and petite pockets. To amplify her glamour, she confidently rocked a matte complexion and lips, shimmering eyeshadow, dangling earrings, and tousled beachy waves. Adding the perfect finishing touch, she complemented the look with elegant strappy heels.
Emily Blunt and Florence Pugh were seen at the event. Pugh caught attention with her fashionable outfit consisting of a denim blazer dress by Moschino. The dress showcased a plunging neckline, rolled up sleeves, and delicate white embroidery. Pugh opted for a daring look by going topless underneath and completed her ensemble with a bold pink buzz cut, gold choker necklaces, multiple earrings, and stylish white pumps.
In the viral TikTok video shared by ETalk Tv, fans applauded Pugh for her heroic actions in the comments section. One viewer wrote, "This is incredibly genuine! Women supporting women. I absolutely love it ❤️." Another viewer expressed, "That was such a kind gesture from her." A third commenter declared, "She is the epitome of a best friend."
During the Oppenheimer premiere on Thursday, July 13, the pair once again displayed their affection for each other, embracing and sharing laughter.
Blunt appeared timeless in an Alexander McQueen ensemble, featuring an asymmetrical neckline and a midriff cutout. The outfit also included shoulder pads, a silver sequined pattern, and a fringed skirt that elegantly revealed her well-toned legs. Her makeup consisted of minimal foundation, a light contour, peachy lips, filled-in eyebrows, and subtle eyeshadow. To complete the look, she styled her hair into a twisted half-up hairstyle and accessorized with stunning emerald and diamond jewelry.
Pugh also radiated beauty in a crimson Valentino gown. The dress boasted a halter neckline that gracefully plunged down her chest, along with captivating cutouts on her torso. A full skirt and a breathtaking train cascaded gracefully behind her. Pugh complemented her look with silver jewelry and sultry smokey eyeshadow.
At the Thursday screening, the announcement of the SAG-AFTRA strike caught the attention of the media as Pugh, Blunt, Matt Damon, and other cast members made a statement by leaving together. Blunt informed Deadline that in the event of the strike being announced during the premiere, "we'll depart as a unified cast along with everyone else."
The strike commenced in May 2023 as writers called for increased wages, equitable contracts, a reliable income, and more. Following unsuccessful negotiations by the writers union, actors have now joined the strike.
