Always the fashion fanatic, Julia Fox made her way back to Paris, just in time for Haute Couture Week. First, she squeezed in a few Spring/Summer 2023 ready-to-wear presentations before the frenzy of Couture week, and made a memorable moment closing Patou’s very first fashion show in its headquarters at Quai du Marché-Neuf on the Ile de la Cité.
For the first Patou runway show led by artistic director Guillaume Henry, the collection called upon the feminine muses of the past and present. Henry told WWD, the collection was the embodiment of a “panorama of the woman they way we love her and they way we want her to be loved.”
With gold statement accessories, Fox took to the catwalk in a bright blue and orange, curve-hugging dress with a graphic print. With a high neckline and a keyhole bust, the long-sleeve midi dress featured a middle slit, showcasing black stockings and black Maison Ernest’s lace-up Bandit boots. Wearing her brunette tresses slicked back, Fox donned her bleached brows with a thin, exaggerated high, drawn-on brow.
Outside the Patou offices, Fox was seen in a Diesel Resort 2023 zip-up catsuit and a black leather jacket, chain-emblazoned black handbag, black sunglasses, and black strappy sandals. Posting a video of herself dramatically sleuthing up the street, Fox joked in her caption, “Walks a runway once lolll (bag is by @paulbenzing ♥️).”
With her show-stopping looks last season, Fox appeared on the arm of Kanye West in a slew of Schiaparelli, and Kenzo, kicking off Fox’s newfound love of avant-garde fashion.
After her January appearances in the front row of runway shows, Fox stepped out onto LaQuan Smith’s Fall/Winter 2022 runway in a cutout black gown and statement silver jewelry, giving the ultimate #breakover lesson after her split from West.
Visiting the shows of Iris van Herpen, Schiaparelli, and Alexandre Vauthier, Fox’s sartorial tour through Paris is sure to be a hit.
