From Kanye to Courtrooms: Julia Fox's Stunning Transformation on TV

Julia Fox's Shocking Transformation: From Scantily-Clad Siren to Grief Influencer

Get ready for a major fashion bombshell, folks! Julia Fox, the 35-year-old actress known for her daring and unconventional style, has left fans stunned with a completely unrecognizable look. The usually scantily-clad siren traded in her usual bold outfits for a surprisingly ordinary ensemble as she filmed a new episode of the CBS legal drama Elsbeth.

In New York City on Thursday, Julia was spotted donning a sophisticated midnight blue suit with a crisp white neckline and black heels. Her hair was styled down in long, loose waves, while her complexion glowed with a smoky coat of eye shadow and blush. It's hard to believe this is the same woman who has been known to make headlines for her outrageous fashion choices.

But don't be fooled – Julia's new look is not just about embracing a more understated style. As Variety reports, she plays Raquel Drabowski, a Staten Island widow who transformed herself into an upscale NYC "Grief Influencer" and reality star on the hit dating series "Black Veil." The network describes her character as a complex and multifaceted one, saying: "Raquel is a woman who has lost everything – her husband, her sense of self-worth – but finds a new lease on life by becoming an influencer."

The transformation from siren to socialite is not just limited to Julia's character. The actress herself has been through a lot since her high-profile split with Kanye West, which she reflected on during an interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings. "I was going through a lot during that time," she lamented. "I was coming off of, like, a very public breakup. It was horrible."

Julia's relationship with Vito Schnabel, her co-star on The Trainers, has also been making headlines lately. But it seems the actress is focusing on her work these days, and we can't help but wonder if she's using her new role to channel some of her own emotions.

As for what's next for Julia Fox, audiences can catch her in the satanic horror film HIM, directed by Justin Tipping and produced by none other than Jordan Peele. The film hits US theaters on September 19 and UK cinemas on October 3. Meanwhile, the actress has been hard at work producing and judging the second season of her design competition OMG Fashun, although Peacock has postponed its release due to "unexpected delays."

But don't worry – the show is still in active production, and fans can expect a fresh batch of fashionistas vying for the top prize. On the personal front, Julia has primary custody of her four-year-old son Valentino from her three-year marriage to Brooklyn private pilot Peter Artemiev, which ended in 2022.

It's clear that Julia Fox is on a mission to prove herself as more than just a fleeting fashion trend. With this new role and upcoming projects, it seems she's ready to take on the world – and we can't wait to see what she has in store for us next!
