Victoria Justice, known for her pop-perfect poise, takes a decadent turn, embracing theatrical glamour and unexpected textures in a stunning new editorial for Numéro Netherlands’ July 2025 issue.
Stepping into a high-fashion, almost theatrical role, Victoria Justice delivers a stylistic whiplash. This isn’t the glossy pop star we know; this is an artist fully in control, using clothing as armor. The Numéro Netherlands cover sets the tone with a dramatic reveal: Justice, her dark hair a voluminous cloud around her face, stares down the lens with a powerful, almost defiant gaze. A shock of vibrant red on her lips and a hint of a feathered or fringed red top create a fiery opening statement that promises a bold departure from her usual aesthetic.
The editorial unfolds like a series of dramatic vignettes. In one powerful shot, she embodies pure rock ‘n’ roll glamour, wrapped in an oversized, shaggy faux-fur coat. Beneath, a daring revelation: her bare torso and a pair of rich, orange-hued leather shorts. The look is a masterclass in controlled chaos, with the high-low mix further exaggerated by her patterned tights—one leg a classic plaid, the other an argyle—giving the outfit an unbothered, punk-couture energy.
Then comes the golden age glamour, but with a modern, subversive twist. Justice is captured in a high-necked, golden bustier, the intricate lace-like pattern and three-dimensional embellishments creating a regal, almost Elizabethan feel. The look is anchored by a black pencil skirt, but the true coup is a whimsical, sequin-embellished red lip detail at her waist, a playful nod to surrealism. Her hair, in a beautifully undone updo, elevates the entire look, making it feel less like a costume and more like a work of art.
