Despite the film not being released yet, production has faced backlash from fans regarding Lily's outfits.

After images from the set were released, social media users took issue with the clothing of the main character with many taking to X, formally known as Twitter, to discuss the costume choices.

One user wrote: "Literally WHAT are blake lively's outfits in this movie like they have to be trolling at this point #ItEndsWithUs"

While another added: "The casting and outfits for it ends with us is SO bad it’s embarrassing like did they even read the book?!"

However some fans did defend Lily's wardrobe, writing: "I know this is really unpopular but I actually like how it ends with us is looking. Lily's outfit might not be perfect but it screams 'I own a flower shop'."

Author Colleen Hover has promised fans that they will be impressed by Lily's outfits, telling TODAY: "When I wrote the book, it wasn’t about the age of the characters. It wasn’t about what they were wearing. I don’t even think I described any clothing in the book.

"Yeah, you’ve seen a few outfits that Lily has worn, but she looks so phenomenal on screen. And some of the outfits that she’s worn indoors that no one’s gotten pictures of yet are phenomenal."
