Julia Fox – The “Queen” of every street style runway during fashion weeks

From the very first “stop” – New York to the final destination – Paris Fashion Week Spring 2024, Julia Fox has consistently been the name drawing attention, sparking discussions, and hailed as the “queen” of every street style runway.

At the conclusion of each fashion week, the fashion industry not only discusses the new trends but also determines who dominates the street style scenes outside the shows. The street style competition during fashion weeks is a platform for fashion enthusiasts to express their individuality and uniqueness without conforming to any societal norms or hesitating due to judgmental looks. This serves both as an advantage and a limitation. Standing out amidst a crowd of individuals with unique styles is never an easy task. Therefore, the impromptu fashion shows on the streets during fashion weeks demand serious investment in personal style stories, rather than simply adhering to trend-based dressing formulas. If in Fashion Week 2023, the talented artist Doja Cat emerged as the winner of the street style race, continuously impressing the fashion world with her bold and unique fashion statements, then in the Spring/Summer 2024 season, that title officially belongs to Julia Fox.

In fact, Julia Fox’s imprint on the fashion journey only began after the actress entered a highly publicized relationship with one of Hollywood’s most notorious rappers, Kanye West. Despite the controversies and complexities surrounding their relationship, Kanye West has the ability to uplift anyone in the entertainment industry, especially in the world of fashion. Kim Kardashian and her influence in the fashion industry are a testament to Ye’s “magic touch.” Julia Fox is another example. Whether as a lover or after the end of her romantic relationship with Ye, Julia Fox appearing alongside the famous rapper has provided her with numerous opportunities coveted by many in the billion-dollar industry. During the period when she became a sought-after star after her role in the movie “Uncut Gems” (2019), Julia Fox’s image was often associated with words like “sensual” or “provocative.” However, her fashion style on the red carpet was not highly regarded during that time, and even deemed inappropriate for her image and age back then.

However, when she was romantically linked to Ye and attended high-profile shows together during fashion week, Julia Fox began to emerge as a regular face in fashion headlines. In stark contrast to the Julia Fox associated with daringly cut dresses showcasing her cleavage, the actress opened a new fashion era for herself – unique, daring, highly personal, and experimental. From Balenciaga, Yeezy,…to Schiaparelli, Julia Fox’s new fashion persona alongside major fashion houses has become a topic of discussion, analysis, and garnered a slew of praises. Moreover, Ye’s relationship has helped Julia Fox polish her own name, starting as a model for LaQuan Smith’s show in New York Fashion Week Fall 2022, or appearing in prestigious front rows of reputable fashion events.

Famous in the fashion world not for long, after splitting from Ye, Julia Fox began to be doubted by the fashion industry: can the star preserve, maintain, and develop the enormous fashion resources that Ye left behind? Ye indeed helped Julia Fox change and shape her new fashion style, but it is Julia’s own efforts and continuous commitment that have won over the fashion world convincingly. After parting ways with Ye, Fox wasted no time in sadness or tears but rather started to take her personal style transformation more seriously. Throughout fashion weeks in various seasons, Julia Fox continuously impressed fashion enthusiasts with her bold and unique fashion ensembles confidently worn on the streets. These outfits shattered conventional norms in the fashion industry, presenting new trends, chaotic mix & match, resonating with Fox’s preferences, and even serving as a powerful statement on gender equality. Some believe that the age of 30 is a crucial milestone in a woman’s life. Women at 30 are expected to be mature and well-established. It’s also a time for them to bid farewell to youthful freedom and dare to face new challenges. However, for some, turning 30 is a new chapter – a time for them to bravely confront new challenges, to step out of their comfort zone. And Julia Fox is one of them.

Though she only appeared for a few minutes on the street, at the book launch event “Down The Drain,” or was constantly surrounded by cameras at the Spring/Summer 2024 fashion weeks, Julia Fox is not just an “IT-Girl” donning the most luxurious designs. Instead, the actress creates iconic moments, milestones that go down in fashion history, albeit often controversial. Throughout New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2024 – a familiar playground for Julia Fox to showcase her unique fashion personality, the star challenged all eyes with a modern version of a wedding dress paired with a magnificent veil and massive platform boots from Marc Jacobs; a standout short dress with bold trompe l’oeil patterns; or the famous recycled outfits from Hodakova… Or the “barely there” moment on the streets of Milan, and the corset echoing Princess Diana’s portrait when she arrived in London.

Turning fashion into a “pen” to continue writing her own story, Julia Fox successfully shattered the “sensual” image society inadvertently labeled her with and was no longer distracted by the public’s discussions about her unconventional transformation. “If you’re uncomfortable with how I dress, perhaps you should ask yourself, ‘What about me scares you?’ And instead of just being envious, maybe you should try stepping out of your comfort zone like I do.” Julia Fox shared. Indeed, if Fox hadn’t boldly shattered her old image, freed her body with new experiments, or played with fashion as she does now, the fashion world might have lost a true “queen” of the street style scene.
