Julia Fox hit the streets of Los Angeles in another pair of impossible shoes — glossy white platforms with a sharply upturned sole and sculptural heel, somewhere between Marc Jacobs whimsy and Vivienne Westwood punk maximalism.
The pumps featured a soft curve through the heel, a low-cut vamp and a chunky front platform that gave the silhouette its tilt. They’re the latest in a summer-long rotation of wacky white heels from Fox — some sheer, some ballooned, all exaggerated — and each one styled with precision.

This time, she grounded the shoes with sheer white lace capris and a vintage-style St. Louis 21 jersey, oversized and cuffed at the sleeve. A tulle rosette appliqué was layered across the shoulder like a corsage gone rogue, and a mesh veil bonnet tied under the chin sealed the look somewhere between “runaway bride” and “postgame victory lap.”
Her jet-black hair was slicked back beneath the bonnet, in step with the moody glam she’s stuck to all season. The sports-fantasy getup may also nod to her upcoming film “HIM,” a psychological thriller about a rising football star drawn to a remote compound under unsettling circumstances.

The white platform run isn’t new for Fox, either. Just weeks ago, she wore an all-white balloon dress and sculptural pumps to the “Fior Di Latte” premiere at Tribeca, followed by a sheer white pair from Femme LA the very next night. In July, she showed up to the Marc Jacobs fall 2025 show in long-toe satin heels from his spring collection.
Fox also carried Celine’s FIFA World Cup Hobo Bag, originally released in 2002 — pre-Philo, post-logo mania, and during a brief era when football and fashion shared a color palette. The cream and oxblood design, with its ruched front panel and chunky top handle, has reentered the resale market as part of a broader Y2K Celine revival.
Fox’s summer shoes have spoken in one dialect: loud, high and a little absurd. Some days she’s a bride, some days an athlete, sometimes something stranger — but the silhouette holds. The volume’s the point.
