Julia Fox Criticized for Disrespectful, Tasteless Halloween Costume
Julia Fox has sparked controversy with her Halloween costume, leading to widespread criticism for being disrespectful and tasteless. The actress debuted her 2025 Halloween look on October 30 at The Cursed Amulet’s Halloween party in New York City.
Julia Fox’s Costume Choice
Fox attended the event dressed as Jacqueline Kennedy, the iconic former first lady, who tragically experienced a significant historical moment on November 22, 1963. On that day, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated during a motorcade in Dallas, Texas.
Outfit Details
Her costume featured:
- A pink two-piece double-breasted suit
- A matching pillbox hat
- White gloves and a black handbag
- A dark brunette wig to replicate Kennedy’s hairstyle
- Accents of simulated blood, referencing the horrific event
Fox reaffirmed her intention to recreate the outfit that Kennedy wore during that fateful day. This decision, however, was met with backlash on social media. Critics expressed their disapproval, labeling the outfit as in poor taste given the tragic historical context.
Reactions to the Costume
Social media responses highlighted the sentiment surrounding the costume:
- “This is NOT okay,” commented one user.
- “Poor taste, bad decision,” another remarked, referring to the emotional impact on the Kennedy family.
- “Everything that’s wrong with this world,” stated a critic.
- Others shared similar sentiments, noting the inappropriateness of referencing such a violent historical event.
As the Halloween season continues, the debate over the boundaries of costume choices remains a focal point. The incident raises questions about respect for history and the impacts of public figures’ fashion statements.
