The Cut - Julia Fox Is Her Own Muse

Julia Fox is telling me about the past four weeks of her life. Her slender index finger, adorned with French-tipped acrylics and delicate tattoos, points out everything she’s wearing: Hoodie? “Yeezy Gap.” The shirt underneath? “Yeezy Gap.” Pants? “Yeezy Gap … or they’re actually Tom Ford.” Online and in Fox’s Instagram comments, observers are calling her new look a “transformation” and a “metamorphosis.” A little over a month ago, Fox, the onetime Uncut Gems pinup and recent Tiffany & Co. holiday-campaign bombshell, started seeing Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West. Now she’s a fixture on “Page Six.” Last week, he was her plus-one at the couture shows in Paris, where they walked hand in hand in Canadian tuxedos. All her old clothes have been discarded; she’s wearing a wardrobe that is almost exclusively black, leather, and low-rise.

We enter Pisces season on Friday — find out what that means for your weekly horoscope. New York City’s five borough presidents are asking Mayor Eric Adams to plant a million new trees by 2030. Today in Bennifer news: J.Lo had fun at the Super Bowl, and Ben Affleck appears to finger Ana de Armas (his ex) in the trailer for Deep Water, a film that maybe wasn’t supposed to see the light of day? That’s not the only new trailer out. There’s one for Dr. Strange, if you’re into Marvel, and one for Bridgerton season two, if you’re into hot people. Good news for the Fexi hive. And happy Valentine’s Day, everyone. Practice safe sex.
