Beyond the revenge dress, there is the revenge walkthat is to say, to press safely on the catwalk, with a proud and vibrant gaze of electricity, and, above all, wearing a long black dress, very tight and strategically cut at the décolleté height. Julia Fox showed the upgrade of post-sentimental sartorial revenge by opening the LaQuan Smith show in New York yesterday. And being sexy and single on Valentine’s Day instantly became a new status symbol.

Let’s rewind the tape: fresh from goodbye to Ye (aka Kanye West), just announced after a month of highly publicized relationship, instead of being flown to Los Angeles in the company of a kleenex truck (equivalent to that of roses for Valentine’s Day Kanye sent to Kim Kardashian) as many had announced, Julia Fox shot the scene in the best possible way: naturally in style. So on the day of lovers she debuted from absolute protagonist at Fashion Week.

Not sitting in the front row in the star parterre, but walking along the catwalk in a state of grace, muse at the opening of one of the most anticipated fashion shows in the Big Apple, that of LaQuan Smith, today a brand in great rise among celebs (Haley Bieber chose a dress of the brand to visit President Macron in Paris, while Rihanna, Irina Shayk, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez and Beyoncé are addicted and even Kim Kardashian and sisters have been spotted with the brand’s garments on several occasions) for her creations with bold and very contemporary cuts.

In short, Julia Fox appears in the spotlight and silence falls on the audience: in the fashion show dedicated to André Leon Talley, the famous editor of Vogue America Recently passed away, friend and mentor of the Bronx-born designer, the actress, model and podcaster has had her consecration.

Among red sequined dresses, fake fur corsets, golden leggings, cut out dresses, lurex and very short miniskirts all accompanied by vertiginous heels, Fox, Armed with silver jewels and sharp red lacquered nails, brings to the stage the realoded version of the Revenge Dress of the Revenge Dress: that of Lady Diana. Equally black, equally hot with long sleeves, a high collar and strategic cut outs.

And which also recalls, needless to say on purpose, the daring vintage dress by Thierry Mugler that Kim Kardashian wore to an event in 2019.

But the declarations of intent do not end there since the show of the Fall / Winter 2022-23 collection took place in a private club in the heart of Wall Street, the Down Town Association, not surprisingly: the American designer wanted to emphasize the plans to rise to the pinnacle of American fashion power. And he could not have chosen a more perfect ally: Julia Fox, single and consecrated, is ready to conquer the most glamorous world.
