Julia Foxhas made her New York Fashion Week runway debut after splitting fromKanye West.
TheUncut Gemsactress, 32, walked the autumn/winter 2022 show for LaQuan Smith Monday. She wore a tight, black dress with a cleavage-teasing cutout and white heels, and accessorized with thick silver bangles and matching earrings, her hair slicked back in a bun.
Fox opened the show, according toWomen’s Wear Daily. Smith told the outlet, “Julia has been my girl from Day One.”
“Julia has been so supportive of me from my early days. She always comes to me for a nasty catsuit for a night out on the town and it just felt kind of pressy and gaggy and I was like, ‘Let’s just do it.’ It’s not far-fetched,” the designer explained. “People anticipate coming to a LaQuan Smith show for a gag kind of moment, a little excitement.”
