- Millie Bobby Brown debuts new burgundy hair color for Stranger Things season 5 premiere
- Wore custom Rodarte gown with feathers and tulle for the "funeral of the show"
- Hairstylist says the red color is something they've wanted to experiment with for a while
On November 6, 2025, Millie Bobby Brown, the lead actress of the hit Netflix series Stranger Things, made a bold statement on the red carpet for the premiere of the show's fifth and final season. The 21-year-old actress had ditched her signature bleached blonde locks in favor of a stunning new burgundy hair color, which she wore in an updo with wispy strands framing her face.
According to Brown's hairstylist, Pete Burkill, the rich, shiny red hue was something they had been wanting to explore for quite some time. "The red is something we've wanted to explore for a while," he told Vogue. "It gave us the perfect balance of richness, shine, and playfulness for the night."
For the big event, Brown stepped out in a custom sheer black Rodarte gown covered in feathers and tulle detailing, which she said she "wore for the funeral of the show." The actress, who has played the role of Eleven in Stranger Things since the series' debut in 2016, is bidding an emotional farewell to the beloved character and the show that catapulted her to stardom.
