Sydney Sweeney Dresses as Cindy Lou Who & Lands in Another Ad Controversy

Sydney Sweeney’s holiday ad blends film-inspired nightwear and lingerie as the campaign draws mixed reactions online.

  • On Wednesday, October 21, actress Sydney Sweeney unveiled a holiday collection for her brand SYRN, featuring looks inspired by characters from Home Alone and How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
  • The campaign utilizes a television-viewing format to transition between film-inspired scenes, including a recreation of Kevin McCallister's hotel stay and an appearance styled as Cindy Lou Who.
  • Sweeney wears a plaid nightgown while portraying Cindy Lou Who, distinct from the black and red lingerie sets modeled in separate sequences that also reference The Nightmare Before Christmas.
  • Viewers expressed mixed reactions to the advertisement, with one user writing, "Dressing up as a child character in lingerie is definitely a choice," while others defended the video as a lingerie ad.
  • Critics previously challenged a Novig advertisement, but comments from Sharon Stone, Sprinter Amy Hunt, and Gracie Kramer regarding that campaign do not apply to the SYRN promotion.
