Her black maxi dress, at first glance, appeared to be a structured, strapless design, but a closer look revealed its unconventional construction.

Dubbed the Tied Sleeves Dress, the piece is made entirely from carefully selected vintage suit jacket sleeves, meticulously sewn onto a wool back panel and tied together in the front. The unique upcycled creation, which, according to Page Six retails for $5,200, offered a deconstructed take on office wear, perfectly complementing Fox’s edgy aesthetic.

The look was completed with black pointed-toe pumps, a platinum pixie cut, and moody gray lipstick, adding to the dark, futuristic vibe. While the knotted sleeves strategically covered most of her frame, the gown featured revealing cutouts along her thighs and midsection, maintaining Fox’s signature sultry touch.

The "Down the Drain" author’s latest fashion statement is a departure from the barely-there ensemble she sported at the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party earlier this month.

Whether embracing high fashion or experimenting with avant-garde creations, Fox continues to push boundaries on the red carpet, ensuring her style moments are anything but predictable.
