Florence Pugh Mocks Instagram's Nipple Policy With Technicality

Florence Pugh mocked Instagram's nipple policy in an incredible Valentino dress.

Florence Pugh has mocked Instagram's nipple policy in an incredible Valentino dress.

The Midsommar star often keeps things candid on her Instagram, taking to the social media platform to clear up rumours and celebrate with friends.

Her latest post was no exception, as Florence shared snaps of an incredible sheer dress that is 'technically' allowed on the platform. Take a look below:

Florence was attending the Valentino Haute Couture Fall/Winder 2022-23 show, called 'The Beginning'.

The show is taking place in Rome and saw a host of famous faces in attendance, including Anne Hathaway, Gigi Goode and Dan Levy.

Sharing pictures of her see-through dress, Florence said: "Technically they’re covered?" - seemingly mocking Instagram's nipple censorship.

The star went on to add that she was 'feeling magical' and thanked the team behind her look, writing: "@pppiccioli you absolute genius. Stunning. Stunning. Stunning evening. Thank you again, my beautiful team, for making my pink princess dreams come true."

Of course, people were quick to respond to Florence's post, with designer Harris Reed saying "My queer little heart can not handle this."

Another added: "She IS beauty and she IS grace."

And, honestly, Florence is killing her look.

One other user agreed, adding: "yes hELLO 911? Florence Pugh looked perfect at the Valentino event."

Florence is just one of many celebs who have mocked Instagram's nipple censorship.

Currently, Instagram's policy on nudity reads: "We know that there are times when people might want to share nude images that are artistic or creative in nature, but for a variety of reasons, we don't allow nudity on Instagram."

The #freethenipple campaign started in 2012.

The platform then goes on to outline a rather confusing checklist of instances when nipples are and aren't allowed on the platform, saying: "It also includes some photos of female nipples, but photos in the context of breastfeeding, birth-giving and after-birth moments, health-related situations (for example, post-mastectomy, breast cancer awareness or gender confirmation surgery) or an act of protest are allowed. Nudity in photos of paintings and sculptures is OK too."

We're not sure it's OK if you've got to create an exhaustive list of when and where women are allowed to show their bodies, but fine.

The confusing policy has attracted backlash from the #freethenipple campaign, which launched in 2012 to open up a dialogue surrounding women's rights to bear their breasts.
