Julia Fox is one of our great style originals. She never wears the same look twice and isn’t scared to take chances, push boundaries, and get creative with her glam and wardrobe. She takes inspiration from everywhere, especially art and pop culture, but her most recent red carpet moment reminded us of a beloved summer tradition: a trip through the local carnival funhouse.
For the premiere of her new movie HIM, where she plays a football player’s wife and aspiring influencer, Fox channeled a day at a classic summer funfair from head to toe in a polka dot dress, matching hat, and multicolored manicure complete with some seriously fun nail art. So step right up and let’s examine every detail, shall we?
The actor’s nails were a long, squared-off shape, with each finger getting its own unique, dedicated nail art. The set was primarily composed of shades of red, black, and white with a few other colors mixed in, including beige and tangerine orange. One pinky was painted with a graphic red-and-white design, while the other was painted in a French manicure style with a beige base, dotted white tip, and teeny-tiny decals that look a lot like eggs scattered across the nail. One middle finger featured a 3D harlequin face atop a red and gold base. My personal favorite is her left hand pointer finger, where minuscule 3D eyeballs were placed atop a hypnotizing, swirling red design. When taken as a whole, it feels like wandering through a carnival funhouse, with each room—or in this case, nail—designed to dazzle your senses with color and pattern.
