Julia Fox challenges aspiring fashion designers to transform trash into show-stopping looks on E!’s new cutthroat competition series “OMG Fashun.”
“You’re designing for the ultimate muse, Julia Fox,” the “Uncut Gems” actress’ co-host, Law Roach, says in a super-tease for the show, later adding, “One man’s trash is Julia Fox’s treasure.”
In another moment, Fox, 34, appears to model one creation made up of items found in a dumpster.
“I just couldn’t part with the actual drawer itself,” she says in the clip, gesturing to an ornately decorated piece of furniture resting on her head.
Roach, 45 — a powerhouse stylist best known for creating Zendaya’s array of iconic red carpet looks — notes that “the ability to make treasure out of trash” is an “incredible” feat.
And doing so for Fox seems to be an honor for the “OMG Fashion” Season 1 contestants.
“Julia Fox is so bold,” one designer enthuses, while another applauds the style-minded star for having “no boundaries” when she curates ensembles.
“She’s not afraid to be a bad bitch,” another enthuses, with a separate individual asserts of Fox, “Julia serves a look.”
As designers are dreaming up looks for Fox — who is known to wear shower curtains as garments or tops made out of ties — she is rewarding the most talented participants with a hefty cash prize, while gifting those who fall short with costume jewelry or, if they’re lucky, a few cents.
“One of you will go home with a $10,000 prize. And the other will go home with a quarter and this necklace,” she tells one contestant before changing her mind, “I’m gonna keep the quarter, actually. I might need it for need it for parking.”
Elsewhere, a contestant admits that the pace of the competition is not for the faint of heart. “Am I stressed?” they ask. “Just a tad.”
Meanwhile, Fox — whose public career has hinged on her crafting unforgettable, camera-worthy ensembles — is unfazed as “OMG Fashun” feels like an extension of her daily routine.
“Doing this show is just what I do in my everyday life,” she notes.
Each episode features three designers, who are asked to produce a bold look for Fox, using unconventional techniques and materials. Guest judges include Bravo star Phaedra Parks, drag legend Violet Chachki and actress Tommy Dorfman, among other notable names.
“OMG Fashun” premieres with back-to-back episodes Monday, May 6, at 9 p.m. ET on E!
