Julia Fox wears $1,000 heels that look like tattooed human skin.
In a world of quiet luxury and simple basics, there's Julia Fox. The actress and experimental dresser Julia Fox, who runs the Brooklyn BDSM scene and candidly tells stories of jet-setting to Miami with Kanye West, is known for wearing the most outrageous outfits the Internet has ever seen, including fur poodle dresses and just underwear and jean jackets. She is known for wearing the most outrageous outfits. But that is what makes Julia Fox Julia Fox: Her style is in a category all its own. She sparks interesting discourse without adhering to trend cycles. Her latest look proves that this subversive style icon will try anything sartorially at least once. Yesterday, Julia Fox wore heels with a human skin effect. Yes, you read that right, shoes that look like flesh.
Her skin heels, a collaboration between Jimmy Choo and Jean Paul Gaultier, mimic the texture of tattooed skin. Foxx's nude trompe l'oeil heels will creep you out, but you won't be able to look away.
Wearing skin-like heels, Fox wore a bright yellow KNWLS biker jacket. The same could be said for the contrasting brown stonewashed corset top layered under the jacket. For bottoms, she wore Capri petal pusher pants that looked like something out of a 2000s fever dream. The dark denim reaches to the kneecaps and is embellished with a yellow airbrush print. A taupe curved shoulder bag further complements the look's bizarre color palette.
The ensemble is toned down compared to Fox's usual aesthetic, but we are equally intrigued. Leave it to Fox to make a seemingly normal outfit of leather jacket and denim a little uncomfortable.
Fox's choice of shoes further solidifies her as the poster child for edgy and possibly misunderstood style. The shoes are a nod to fashion history, thanks to a collaboration between Jimmy Choo and Jean Paul Gaultier that was unveiled earlier this year. The campaign calls back to the provocative nature of JPG throughout the 90s with its kitschy body horror and statement prints. Cool, creepy, chic" Perhaps all three.
As this bold actress proves, weird statement shoes aren't going anywhere anytime soon. Everyone can embrace statement shoes, even those who are dismissive of Fox's quirky trend. Carrie Bradshaw loves her mismatched Manolos, and Tory Burch just released a pair of pierced shoes. Whether you're into skin effects or not, I promise there's an eclectic shoe that you can relate to, regardless of your aesthetic.
