Sydney Sweeney is one of those celebrities who can certainly turn a lot of heads with a simple Instagram post, and that’s exactly what she’s done.

The Euphoria star recently shared a new Instagram reel of herself dressed in the clothes of one of her latest characters from The Housemaid, donning a cardigan and button-down blouse. The video, featuring a more modest outfit, didn’t come out long after inside sources revealed some of her friends wish she would “cover up” more often in the entertainment industry.

Sydney Sweeney Posts A Behind-The-Scenes Video From ‘The Housemaid’ While Wearing A Cardigan On Instagram

The 28-year-old actress has had quite the busy and eventful year, from a controversial jeans advertisement to several new films, including a wrestling biopic and her latest release, the psychothriller, The Housemaid, which stars her and Amanda Seyfried.

In honor of the film’s release, Sydney shared a video on Instagram of herself in one of her characters, Millie’s, costumes while sitting and getting ready in her trailer behind the scenes of the filming process. She was wearing what appeared to be a school uniform, including a blue button-down shirt and a navy blue cardigan.

Throughout her video, she can be seen getting ready to film as she lip syncs to the popular song, “Messy” by Lola Young.

Sydney's Friends Reportedly Want Her To 'Cover Up' More

The Christy star has always been known not to shy away from more revealing outfits, including within her social media posts and her red carpet appearances. More recently, during the premiere of The Housemaid, she wore a plunging white gown that was reminiscent of a Marilyn Monroe dress.

However, it appears that some of her nearest and dearest are becoming increasingly concerned about her flashy appearances and the amount of skin she's shown throughout her career.

"Those closest to Sydney are seriously on edge," an insider told Radar Online. "They know how gifted she is and are afraid that, thanks to her constant flesh-flashing, she's being boxed into a looks-first storyline at the exact moment she's trying to step into more major lead roles."

The blonde movie star has also been battling 'stereotypes' throughout her career, which her inner circle is reportedly worried about as well.

"Basically, there has been a begging call put out for her to cover up her assets or risk being cast as a blonde bimbo all the time," they added.
