We’re all accustomed to Julia Fox’s headline-grabbing wardrobe at this point (grocery shopping in nothing but Calvin Klein underwear and denim boots, for example). And the fashion enthusiast has made some suitably bold choices while attending the autumn/winter 2023 Fashion Week shows. Whether it’s an ultrasheer Willy Chavarria football jersey in New York or low-rise hip-skimming joots by Diesel in Milan, Fox’s Fashion Week outfits are never anything less than arresting. As for Paris? She delivered yet another wild sartorial moment to add to her repertoire.
You’ve heard of the belted dress, but Fox’s latest look brings an entirely different meaning to the term. The striking black leather minidress she wore in Paris on Thursday, March 2, is by the up-and-coming Swedish label Hodakova and meticulously constructed from several repurposed belts sewn together vertically.
The remainder of Fox’s ensemble comprised a black leather trench coat with silver hardware accents, a black leather mini bag, and black leather pumps. The unconventional dress follows a recent outing from Fox in a look fashioned entirely from denim waistbands.
It’s not the first time we’ve seen a fashion plate finding less than traditional uses for belts in recent days. Last week in Milan, Kim Kardashian wore a beige leather Dolce & Gabbana two-piece set adorned with belts (horizontally, FYI) while visiting the Italian brand’s via Montenapoleone flagship store.
So let Julia Fox and Kim Kardashian inspire you to incorporate more playful takes on the classic belt into your wardrobe. We’ve even shopped a few options for you below.
