Julia Fox Defends Her Bloodstained Jackie Kennedy Halloween Costume

Julia Fox says she was trying to pay proper homage to Jacqueline Kennedy

Oh my god, you will NOT believe this! Adam Sandler, my absolute FAVORITE, went to Julio Torres’ Halloween party as Jackie Kennedy… but get this, he dressed as her on the exact day JFK was assassinated! Like, October 30th, 1963. And it wasn’t just the pink suit, he went ALL OUT with bloodstains! It was… hauntingly perfect. I’m obsessed!

Although many people criticized her recreated look, calling it insensitive, Julia defended her choice, explaining that it was intended as a tribute to the original icon.

Julia shared photos on Instagram on October 31st of herself dressed as Jackie Kennedy in the iconic pink suit. She explained it wasn’t a costume, but a tribute to a powerful moment in history. Julia noted that when John F. Kennedy was assassinated, Jackie Kennedy famously refused to change her bloodstained clothes, wanting everyone to witness the consequences of the act.

The 35-year-old, who shares 4-year-old son Valentino with her ex-husband Peter Artemiev, described the First Lady’s action as a particularly striking and unsettling contrast.

Julia went on to say that there was a striking contrast – beauty and horror, grace and destruction. She believed the woman’s refusal to change her clothes, despite being asked to, was a remarkably courageous thing to do.

The judge described Jackie Kennedy’s choice to stay in her bloodstained clothes after the assassination as a powerful act that was simultaneously a display of grief, a form of protest, and a public performance.

I’ve always been captivated by Jackie Kennedy Onassis. To me, she wasn’t just a style icon, but someone who used her public image and poise to subtly challenge the harsh realities around her. It’s clear to me that her life was deeply marked by trauma, yet she wielded her femininity as a powerful, quiet form of defiance. She truly embodied resilience, and I feel like her legacy deserves to be celebrated – long live Jackie O!

Even though Julia meant well, Jack Schlossberg—John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy’s grandson—publicly responded to her post with one of his own.

Jack criticized Julia Fox on X (formerly Twitter) on October 31st, calling her support for political violence “disgusting, desperate, and dangerous.” He added that he believes her grandmother would have disapproved.

While some stars, like Julia, aimed to make a bold statement, others, such as Demi Lovato, took a trip down memory lane for the holiday. Lovato dressed up as “Poot Lovato,” a funny, edited photo of herself that became a popular internet meme back in 2015, sparking fan theories about a supposed long-lost sister.

Demi Lovato shared photos of herself dressed as her alter ego, Poot, on Instagram October 30th, explaining she’d been embracing that side of herself for a while and wanted to share it with fans.
