The last time we saw Katy Perry at the Met Gala, she literally lit up the red carpet dressed as a couture chandelier — and then changed into a cheeseburger costume.
This year, she skipped the campy costumes in favor of an elegant look that fully embraced the event’s Gilded Glamour dress code.
Perry, 37, commanded attention on the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s iconic steps, wearing a romantic Oscar de la Renta design.
“I feel great,” she told Vogue on the red carpet. “I mean it’s not my first rodeo so I feel like I can relax.
You know last time I came to the Met I was a cheeseburger I loved it and I was like, ‘What am I going to do tonight?’ I’m going to play a whole different card and now I feel like I’m just accepting the darling darkness.”
The design features a romantic asymmetrical neckline with a floral lace overlay and a black silk taffeta skirt. She teamed it with sheer opera gloves and drop diamond earrings.
“Oscar de la Renta did amazing work and I’ve been pinned in for like three hours,” she shared, adding, “Don’t ask me how I’m going to the restroom ever or anyone at the Met!”
This marks Perry’s first time at the Met Gala since 2019. The star skipped the event last September. And while the gala was canceled in 2020 as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, Perry shared a glimpse of the look she was planning to wear — a vintage Jean Paul Gautier corset.
