In January, I covered Millie Bobby Brown’s response to online trolls criticizing her appearance in a mirror selfie.

Millie responded, “Women grow!! Not sorry about it :)” on her Instagram stories, and I foolishly thought the unwarranted focus on her appearance would slow down. Damn, was I wrong!

As a fan of the Stranger Things actor, I was living for all her appearances during the 2025 awards season because the 21-year-old star was serving classic Hollywood beauty. But some of the conversation around these appearances was dreadful.

At the 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards, Millie debuted her blonde hair in a peach Louis Vuitton and canary yellow diamond earrings. My opinion? She ate.

Millie arrived with her husband, Jake Bongiovi, in a floor-length Annie Ibiza dress and De Beers jewelry at the Los Angeles premiere of her Netflix movie The Electric State. And I thought she ate again.

Millie rocked another Annie Ibiza dress made from 1920s silver Egyptian fabric, and it felt (in my world) that the Enola Holmes star was stepping into a new era of high fashion and adult elegance. But, alas, I underestimated the negative cesspools of the internet that try to find something wrong with one of the most immaculate press tour appearances and fashion showcases of 2025.
