Julia Fox is in the middle of a controversy. The Italian actress and model sparked a wave of criticism for appearing at a Halloween party in New York dressed in the iconic pink jumpsuit Jackie Kennedy wore the day her husband, President John F. Kennedy, was assassinated in 1963. Fox's costume included simulated bloodstains, recreating the historic image of Jackie Kennedy refusing to change her blood-stained clothes after JFK's assassination, as a symbol of dignity and grief that the actress wanted to convey with a message of power and resilience. However, the actress's costume was met with severe criticism. The Kennedy family expressed their disapproval of the use of this outfit, considered a historical symbol of a national and intimate tragedy. Jack Schlossberg, Jackie Kennedy's grandson, called Julia Fox's act "repugnant, desperate, and dangerous," noting that it glorifies political violence and takes out of context an episode of profound grief for the family and the nation. Julia Fox, for her part, defended her choice, arguing that it was not just a costume, but a "tribute to Jackie Kennedy's courage" and her silent protest in refusing to change out of the bloodstained suit. "I'm dressed as Jackie Kennedy in the pink suit. Not as a costume, but as a statement. When her husband was assassinated, she refused to change out of the bloodstained clothes and said, 'I want them to see what they've done,'" Fox said. The actress emphasized that she wanted to highlight the image as a symbol that combines "beauty and horror, elegance and devastation." “The delicacy of the pink dress and the blood spatter represent one of the most unsettling juxtapositions in modern history: beauty and horror, calm and devastation,” she added. Julia Fox’s controversial costume has sparked a debate about the ethical boundaries of Halloween costume choices, especially when they allude to violent or traumatic episodes in history.
