Katy Perry’s taste may be eclectic, but when it comes time for a big event, she always goes for fashion that makes a statement. As the last player at the Celebrating America a ceremony in honor of President Joe Biden, Perry knew she had to put out all stops. Her little one from Tom Browne picked up the evening style conference while showcasing a new side of her look. Browne’s all-white cashmere coat, satin corset, and floor-length skirt were cooler than the traditional gown, while still recording as elegant. As she played her “Firework” with pyrotechnics illuminating the capitol, she looked just like a modern pop diva should.
In the past, Perry has shown her patriotism through Americana-inspired pieces – no musician has worn more flagship dresses or Stars and Stripes skirts than she has, and has. however 2021 has received a new call. The scene designed by Browne played with the American image that Perry loves but in a less compelling way. Detailed in detail with satin-covered blue buttons on the top of the shirt and red versions at the hem hem and hem of the corset skirt, the suit was a reference to the colors of the country without going into the Uncle Sam’s clothing-y range.
This isn’t the first time Perry has sought Browne for a milestone moment. At the launch party for her second perfume, Killer Queen, back in 2013, she arrived at the James Duke mansion in New York in an elegant gown from Browne’s fall 2013 runway. Voluminous and covered in roses, the scene offered a literal nod to the star’s prowess into a fragrant world and paired with her favorite camp’s wardrobe.
Fast forward nearly a decade, and Browne still makes Perry look so good to her, but in a way that feels elevated. Simply, regal, and unexpectedly, Perry’s start-up night scene showed her current view of style while paying homage to the broad theme of the night.
