Having been known to wear everything from silver sci-fi chic ensembles to wired pearl bras and even shoes made from hair extensions, you may be wondering what Julia Fox's current favourite spring summer fashion trend is. Can a woman who is that experimental with her sartorial choices even be limited to selecting just one preferred look from the current oversaturated aesthetics and micro-trends?
From our interview with the former Cosmo UK cover star, we like to think we've gained somewhat of an insight into the workings of the model, actress and author's mind. And, based on her most recent attire, we're pretty sure not only does Julia Fox have a favourite trend rn, but we've worked out exactly what it is. We're talking about the underwear as outerwear trend.
Arriving on the red carpet last night [Tuesday 20 August] in New York for the world premiere of The Crow, Julia's outfit seemed to confirm our theory.
At first glance, her outfit appeared to be subtly chic (and very out of character) consisting of an oversized black blazer, washed grey t-shirt and black satin midi skirt. But, upon closer inspection, she had in fact gotten dressed in reverse, layering a black satin lace-trim camisole complete with suspender belts over the top of her tee. And more obvious than that, adorned the front of her skirt with a pair of pink frilly knickers featuring a pretty lace design and satin bow.
A handbag covered in pink satin bows coordinated perfectly with her lingerie, with black slouchy boots the perfect finishing touch. As for her beauty look, heavy black eye makeup added extra drama.
Her fans were loving this latest outfit, taking to Instagram to write:

It follows Julia stepping out last week in a low-rise maxi skirt made entirely out of men’s boxers. Literally underwear fashioned into an outerwear garment. If this is the theme, we can't wait to see what she wears next.
