The Untold Truth Of Julia Fox

Julia Fox seems New York through and through. In an interview with Highsnobiety in 2019, Fox said that she grew up with her father in Manhattan. "We moved around a lot," she explained. "It was kind of unstable. We were homeless at one point. I actually have lived in almost every single neighborhood — Harlem, Chelsea, everywhere. I moved Downtown when I was 17 and I haven't left."

Fox absorbed the vibe of the Big Apple, and she told The New York Times that her teenage years in the East Village were significant to her in creating an aesthetic and making connections in the city that are still serving her. Despite this deep connection to New York, Fox was actually born in Milan, and her mother has remained in Italy, while Fox moved back to the States at age 6. Throughout her life, she's returned to Italy many times, including a brief period at school in Como, a city in northern Italy.

Fox has two younger brothers, one of whom lives in Italy and the other lives in New York, but the latter bro and Fox are on very different pages when it comes to lifestyles. "He's like a mad scientist recluse," Fox told Highsnobiety. "He builds 3D printers for fun." And as for her father, Fox explained that it doesn't get more New York than him. "My dad is American," she told the outlet. "He's, like, a seventh generation New Yorker. He's out of his mind. I pretty much grew up with him. Single dad. Poor guy."
