Jordan Strauss/Invision/East News Echoing Cher’s iconic style, Katy Perry’s latest outfit has raised eyebrows. While it channels a retro vibe that’s not inherently negative, it does feel somewhat redundant. As someone who prefers more coverage, this look isn’t for me, but that’s just my take. It seems like the designer could have pushed the boundaries of creativity further with this ensemble.

Katy Perry opted for a daring look, combining a black bra top and matching briefs with a netted dress that featured bold red ribbons down the sides. She accessorized with oversized sunglasses, rounding off her avant-garde outfit.

The American Idol judge styled her hair in loose waves and chose understated makeup—matte lipstick and dark, smoky eyes applied by her makeup artist.

Katy Perry has been embracing bold fashion statements recently, stirring conversations online with her red carpet looks.

In related news, country star Luke Bryan recently hinted at Katy Perry’s departure from American Idol in a conversation on Taste of Country Nights, a syndicated radio show. “I had heard some rumors about her possible exit, so it wasn’t entirely surprising,” Bryan remarked.

Bryan reflected on his time working with Perry, noting how they’ve grown close, especially as he witnessed her journey into motherhood. “It’s been a rewarding experience working with Katy, and I treasure our friendship,” he expressed, hopeful that their connection will persist even after her departure from the show.

Perry, who first appeared as a guest judge on American Idol’s ninth season, became a regular judge in the sixteenth season in 2018.
