Julia Fox’s life was saved by high-end fashion during a recent near-death experience.
The 32-year-old Julia Fox Uncut Gems actress recalled an incident where her Herms Birkin bag was involved in an alleged machete attack while sharing a video on TikTok. Citing another user who said: “Life’s Birkin is so beautiful.”
In the clip, he shows off his gray Birkin neckline before cracking a joke: “Well, I love him, but he’s been through a lot.
Kind of hard to see, but he gets attacked with a machete. “I’m not kidding. That happened to this bag and me,” continued Fox, pointing the camera at his serious reaction, adding, “I don’t know. I don’t even know how I got to like… you know, I’ve had this Birkin for life.”
A Fox representative did not respond to news request for comment. But when the newspaper contacted him about the incident, he replied, “I’m not a whistleblower,” and a silent emoji. Fox previously contemplated the pitfalls of owning coveted fashions like the Birkin (which. According to InStyle, ranges from $10,145 to $12,450) after his ex Kanye West bought him one of those black ostrich leather bags.
“I don’t know if you know how to own a Birkin unless you’re rich, but it’s the scariest thing ever,” Fox told the New York Times in March. “Check the Birkin; make sure it’s still there, no magic wings growing. It’s scary to have a Birkin. It’s a lot of fun.”
A source previously told PEOPLE that West, 45, surprised the host of the Forbidden Fruit podcast by treating Foxx and his friends to Birkins for his 32nd birthday.
