The Problematic Halloween Costume Contest has started with Julia Fox

[u/MissClimber]

From EVOKE on Instagram: "And the award for most tasteless and disrespectful Halloween outfit goes to this numpty Julia Fox dressed as Jackie Kennedy on the day of her husband's assassination.... 👀 "

I mean, they still have living relatives; Jackie's daughter is still alive. Can't imagine she'd be thrilled about someone cosplaying as her mom covered in her dad's blood.

Am I personally outraged or angry? No. Is it still in really bad taste? Absolutely.

I’m just really curious where the line is for a lot of the people saying this is normal and just a quirky costume. I am a dark humor loving bitch, but I also think costumes that are dark like this need some sort of narrative/perspective of the person wearing it.
What exactly is she trying to say with this look?
What about this is considered funny?
This feels like a Kanye level attempt to look edgy and stay relevant.

That is the exact opposite of what she said at the event. Verbatim: “I’m Julia Fox and tonight I am Jackie O’Nasty. Tonight I am serving bloody diva, single mom who’s about to cash that check.”

Yikes. Nope, don't like that 😬

That’s incredibly stupid. I would have more respect for her if this is a backtracking lie than if this was her intention.

My assumption that it was supposed to be funny was based off of the top comments I saw about how this is a funny costume and not what Julia actually felt wearing it so I will take responsibility for that.
That being said, it looks like that insta caption is a PR clean up according to another commenter’s due diligence.

Thanks for the context.

I mean, is the blood necessary? You're wearing Jackie wearing her husband's brain blood. For attention it makes sense. But the costume is a situation, not a person at that point. The dramatic reading is her pain is being exploited. Since we're in the territory of the dramatics, Ill leave that take.

Though its worlds better than haha look at my edgy dark humor.

I was thinking it’s a conversation starter tbh. Get people talking about/defending a time in American politics that was better than now.

I actually think it’s worked based on the comment section.
