Florence Pugh unveiled a major hair transformation at the Valentino show during Haute Couture Fashion Week in Paris on Wednesday, July 5.
The 27-year-old actress rocked an edgy pink buzz cut at the presentation, which was hosted on the grounds of Chateau de Chantilly. The spiky ‘do and the rosy hue perfectly contrasted Pugh’s whimsical periwinkle gown.

I’m shooting a movie called We Live in Time, and it was required for the job that I happily wanted to do … and I thought what was a better way to release it to the world than the Met Gala.”
