Julia Butters leaned into heritage chic with a plaid crop set—equal parts prep-school rebellion and red carpet polish—at Disney’s Freakier Friday premiere in London.
There’s something deliciously offbeat about a young star choosing plaid for a Disney premiere. At the UK debut of Freakier Friday on July 31, 2025, held at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square, Julia Butters didn’t opt for sequins or tulle. Instead, she delivered a look that felt like a fashion thesis on Gen Z elegance: structured, referential, and quietly subversive.

Her ensemble—a checked crop top and matching high-waisted skirt—was a study in proportion and restraint. The sleeveless halter cut gave the look a youthful edge, while the skirt’s tailored silhouette grounded it in sophistication. The plaid itself? A muted mix of maroon, slate, and ivory—classic, but not conservative.
Though the designer remains unconfirmed, the craftsmanship was evident. The fit was razor-sharp, the hem clean, and the styling intentional. Butters paired the look with burgundy pointed-toe heels, adding a tonal echo that kept the palette tight. No jewelry, no fuss—just a confident pose against the premiere’s vibrant purple backdrop.
