Really, Millie Bobby Brown Is ‘Dressing Her Age’

Have you ever seen Millie Bobby Brown currently? Likelihood is, the reply is sure.

The 21-year-old actor has been hitting the press circuit onerous, making stops at morning reveals, late night time reveals, podcasts, and panels to advertise her newest Netflix flick, the ‘90s-set journey movie The Electrical State.

As all superstar ladies nicely know, with a spate of public appearances and photograph opps comes unwarranted criticism and drained opinions. Brown, who started her profession as a toddler star on Stranger Things, is not any exception after all. Over the previous few weeks, she has been picked aside by “followers” and the media alike, for “ageing poorly.”

“Disillusioned individuals can’t deal with seeing a woman turn into a lady on her phrases, not theirs,” she wrote of the discourse on Instagram last week. On her March 11 look on the Call Her Daddy podcast, she elaborated, saying, “A factor that I get lots is like, ‘Oh my God, she appears to be like like 40.’”

She continues, “And I’m like, nicely yeah, you probably did meet me after I was 10…I’m 21, it’s been 10 years. She grows. My face like, grew. What would you like me to do about that?”

It is not simply her appears to be like, nonetheless, that individuals appear to have taken difficulty with. Her type has additionally been the topic of relentless chatter on-line, with haters latching onto the weak suggestion that she ought to “gown her age,” no matter meaning.

Within the feedback of her Instagram in addition to on different trend accounts, I’ve seen well-meaning critics not directly come for her style by way of assaults on her stylist or her glam workforce. “Lady wants a brand new stylist asap,” reads one remark under a photo of the star carrying an Annie’s Ibiza hooded gown on the 2025 Brit Awards. One other, this one shared beneath a photograph of the actor’s recent Tamara Ralph couture look, mentioned: “She wants to fireside her glam workforce.”

All are lacking one necessary level: Millie Bobby Brown is not going to put on something that Millie Bobby Brown would not wish to put on. Blaming her workforce removes her company. As she’s mentioned repeatedly, she’s now not a toddler—she is a lady with energy, means, and entry. Is not that each fashion-obsessed individual’s dream?

Brown, like every 21-year-old, is experimenting together with her type. For proof, simply have a look at her current transformation from mousy brunette to bombshell blonde. She appears to be significantly preoccupied with Pamela Anderson’s ‘90s type currently, and even had the privilege of raiding the Baywatch star’s archive for her method-dressing press tour.

“The Electrical State relies within the ’90s,” she defined to Name Her Daddy’s Alex Cooper. “So I used to be like, ‘I need the whole lot I put on on this press tour to be ’90s archive. So I used to be like, ‘Who’re the foremost blondes within the ’90s?’”

After connecting by means of a mutual buddy, Anderson “pulled me an entire rack of garments that have been simply unbelievable,” Brown mentioned.
