Millie Bobby Brown Is Now A Redhead

Goodbye, Millie Bobby Blonde and say hello to Millie Bobby Burgundy!

Millie Bobby Brown (Bon Jovi) stepped out at the Los Angeles premiere of Stranger Things season five last night, debuting her latest hair transformation. “I’m wearing custom Rodarte for the funeral of the show,” the actor told the press on the red carpet.

The British Vogue cover star, styled by Ryan Young, wore a custom Rodarte gown with metallic and sheer tulle detailing, black feathers dramatically lining the bust and silhouette to fall into a beaded train. With silver Chopard earrings and rings, it was sensual, dark, and romantic. She walked the carpet with her husband, Jake Bongiovi, who wore a burned red velvet suit.

Her hair, by celebrity hairstylist Pete Burkill, followed the same rhythm, taking on a deep wine tone (Maybe burgundy, maybe more Cabernet? or Merlot?). It was styled in an elegant up-do with a centre part and wispy front-pieces.

“The intention was to keep Millie’s hair feeling effortlessly undone – as though she could have swept it up herself,” Burkill tells Vogue. “There’s a natural ease to the shape, with a soft, face-framing texture that complements the gown’s clean neckline.”

Burkill used The Smooth Company Hair Wand to keep flyaways at bay and maintain a refined yet relaxed finish.

“Throughout this press tour, we’ve been leaning into a more lived-in, timeless aesthetic,” shares Burkill, “something fresh, understated and quietly confident – and this first premiere look really captures that spirit: elevated, but never overworked.”

“The red is something we’ve wanted to explore for a while,” says Burkill. They created a temporary vivid gloss by mixing Goldwell Elumen Red with Millie’s own brand Florence By Mills’s Mane Character Vibes Hair Mask. “It gave us the perfect balance of richness, shine and playfulness for the night.”
