Julia Fox gave her fans some helpful tips on making stylish clothing from household items in a fun TikTok video she posted on Monday.
The 32-year-old actress and model turned a simple beach towel into a chic low-effort dress with just a few snips of her scissors and some carefully placed safety pins.
Later on Tuesday, she shared a video to the platform calling out trolls on social media who were attacking her for her former relationship with Kanye West in the wake of his recent anti-Semitic comments.

Mother of invention: Julia Fox, 32, showed her fans how to make a chic dress out of nothing more than a simple beach towel in a TikTok video posted Monday
‘I’m going to give you guys some end-of-the-world fashion inspo today,’ Julia began her clip while wearing a white graphic T-shirt and large black bug-eyed sunglasses.
‘It’s no secret that towels have made their way to the runway,’ she continued while turning her camera down to a blue-and-white floral print beach towel reading, ‘Hawaii.’
‘So today, we’re going to cut up this towel and make it a dress!’ she said before cutting a slim slit about two-thirds of the way down the towel, where her head could poke out.

She returned to the mirror to show off the low-key look, which featured a short back and a long front flap, like a lopsided poncho.
Then she returned to adjust the dress, cutting another longer slit at the length she wanted the dress to end at.
The Uncut Gems star then stepped through the hole and pinned the excess material up to create a shorter, leg-baring dress with a cutout highlighting her back.
‘It creates this swoop effect in the back that I really like,’ she gushed as she twirled around for her fans before briefly forgetting to keep her camera pointed at the mirror. ‘And then from the front it just looks sort of boxy and cool.’

‘This is the final look,’ she added as she admired her handiwork.
‘Don’t mind the mess here,’ she said, before turning to say, ‘Anyway, I think it’s really chic.’
The actress reversed the dress and gushed about how much she loved the ‘deep swoop in the back.’
She captioned the helpful video, ‘lol we better learn to improvise.’

Two-faced: But Julia was more somber in a short follow-up clip posted on Tuesday morning as she opined that people who describe themselves as ’empaths are hypocrites
Fighting back: She singled out one self-styled ’empath’ who posted mean comments referencing her former relationship with Kanye West amid his scandal over anti-Semitic comments
But Julia was more somber in a short follow-up clip posted on Tuesday morning.
She filmed herself at the bottom of the screen while including a screen recording from TikTok of a user who had been trolling her over her former relationship with Kanye West, 45.
‘So, I have this theory that people that preach about being empaths and loving and all that bulls***, that they’re actually just really s****y f***ing people and they just try to project that image because they’re insecure,’ she said while scrolling through a list of comments.
One user, whose name she did a half-hearted job of censoring, posting several comments making fun of her for her association with Kanye.
‘Are you the girl that was with Kayne? or am I wrong? I don’t know who you are [sic,’ read one comment, seemingly unprompted. ‘No one knew who you were until Kayne [sic],’ she continued, while another comment read, ‘I can see why Kayne left [sic].’
Julia also showed the user’s home page to reveal that she described herself as an ’empath’ in the comments.
New muse: Julia and Kanye met on New Year’s Eve 2021 in Miami and dated for two months. She showed off many outfits inspired by his tastes; seen in January in Paris
Julia and Kanye were first seen together at the end of December when they met up at New Year’s Eve party in Miami, before they enjoyed a dinner date at Carbone in New York City shortly afterward.
Julia and Kanye were quickly inseparable, and he bought her a new closet of high-fashion clothing to suit his tastes while she made several eye-catching appearances with him.
But just over a month later, the rapper was making regular calls on social media to reunited with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, and the two called it off in February of this year.
Although Julia didn’t mention it, Kanye has been engulfed in scandal in recent days. After months of harassing his ex-wife Kim and her former boyfriend Pete Davidson, the rapper set off controversy by wearing a ‘White Lives Matter’ shirt at his fashion show for Paris Fashion Week.
More recently, the hitmaker made multiple anti-Semitic comments that got him suspended from Instagram and Twitter.

Julia Fox explains why she deleted Kanye West fan accounts
On Tuesday, Adidas said it was terminating its contracting with West after he doubled down on his comments and claimed that Adidas would never drop him over his statements.
Other fashion brands that have collaborated with the rapper, who has been open about suffering from bipolar disorder in the past, also followed suit to cut ties.
Gap, which ended its collaboration with West in September, announced on Tuesday that it would remove all Yeezy Gap products from its stores, and Balenciaga, which designed a number of striking outfits for West and Kim Kardashian in recent years, also ended its relationship with him.
