Scarlett Johansson fell under fire ahead of the pandemic, hitting up the 76th Venice Film Festival carpet in a show-stopping red dress. Going thigh-slit in a strapless red dress with sparkly fabrics and a racy neckline, the MCU star displayed her killer curves while rocking wet-effect hair, but she wasn't met with much love. Despite upping her fashion game in custom-made Celine, Scarlett was criticized for her look, with some users trashing her hairstyle while others raised eyebrows over her dress. ScarJo attended the Marriage Story premiere while enjoying her time in Italy. Clearly, given the comments, fans wished she'd turned up in something else.

Scarlett's dress boasted a tight bodice with a structured feel, ruched accents sloping toward her midriff, plus a liquid-effect skirt that best showcased the gown's glittery materials.

All smiles on the red carpet as she went braless and flaunted her ultra-toned shoulders, Scarlett also flashed her tattoos thanks to a low back, with her strappy red heels adding even more pizzazz. The mom of two opted out of a bombshell hairdo, instead rocking slicked-back locks cut just above the shoulder. Scarlett sent the cameras her best smile as she arrived for her photo ops, with some photos also showing her seated inside the movie theater.
"I hate this wet look hair they are all doing at the moment. This would look beautiful were it not for the hair (IMO obvs)," one fan wrote as The Daily Mail published the photos. Over 1,300 users agreed.

Also commenting on Scarlett Johansson's hair, another replied: "Her hair isn't in a particularly flattering style. It looks like she just got out of the shower, and it is still soaking wet."
Also attracting likes was the fan saying, "Could she have found a more ill-fitting, unflattering dress? Added to her chip fat hair and demonic eye makeup, she just looks horrendous."

Scarlett is known for low-key outfits when out and about, but the Hollywood star will absolutely glam up on the red carpet. Earlier this year, she slipped her curves into a Prada dress for the Jurassic World Rebirth premiere in Shanghai, China. In the above photo, she looked stunning in angelic white, modeling a stringy white gown while going braless.
