Katy Perry’s sartorial choices have always treaded eccentric waters, be it through her unmissably bright music videos or equally eyeball-grabbing personal aesthetic. The singer and songwriter attended Spanish luxury fashion line Balenciaga’s couture show in Paris on Wednesday, June 26 and surprisingly took a giant step back from the flurry of colours, patterns and textures she usually choses to wrap herself in. In a rare occurrence, Katy arrived at Paris’ 10-12 Avenue George V — the original location for Balenciaga’s Paris atelier from 1937 — in an all-black ensemble. The highlight of the look however, was not the luxe muted vibe, but instead, the fact that Katy went shirtless.Katy’s statement piece was a well-fitted sweeping faux fur coat in lush black, complete with upturned collars. Ripped nylon tights fading into her pumps, a tight braid going down to her hips and classic Balenciaga shades, also in black, completed her look. The mother of 1 proudly flaunted her washboard abs, arguably the main attraction of her outfit of choice. As per The Hollywood Reporter, Katy wanted to look “sexy, sensual, simple but chic, and wear my nylons right above my C-section star”, expectations she appears to have surely met.
