In a quest to find herself, Jules is constantly exploring her wardrobe in the show." The magazine also called Jules "the perfect hybrid between an angel gone dark and a manic pixie anime character" and said, "Layering is a key part of Jules' costumes—slip dresses on t-shirts, pleated skirts with cropped tops paired with chunky platform heels and chokers for accessories best summarises her go-to looks."
