Yay or Nay? Katy Perry Wears Pink Giambattista Valli

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday October 24, 201153 comments


If Katy Perry was attempting to resemble a pink popsicle, she succeeded. Normally, I'm a fan of the monochromatic look: I'll match my manicure or make up to my outfit when the situation calls for it. Going tonal in a single colour family looks chic and put together... but Katy Perry's version is a bit wide off the mark. 


Matching your hair perfectly to your outfit? Too kitschy for me. Adding a stark contrast with black tights and shoes really throws me off. Finally, there is the issue of the dome shaped capelet.  On the runway, this might work: with the added pink jacket (right), the dress doesn't look so out of place. Alone though (left), it just looks a little too 'star trek high fashion' in my opinion. 

I usually love Katy Perry and her crazy fashion risks but this one I am not feeling. One part I do like is her bubblegum beehive- I think with any other outfit this would be a fun and quirky hair style. 

What do you think? Should we celebrate her brazenness or ask her to please change her outfit? Is this a Yay or a Nay?

Personally I think this is a really safe more adult look for her, I'm actually digging it a bit. She looks more put together than usual.

I really don't mind her pink hair, just don't like the boring outfit. Way too much pink!

I'm not digging it at all. Looks like a mix between a shroud and the Pink Panther...maybe she was going for Pink Panther Perry?

YAY I know that this pink explosion on Katie is risky and different and in some ways strange but I DO think SHE can pull it off. Pink is such a fun color and its romantic, flity and fun. SHe makes it look great. If all the Goth ppl can war all black and society think its fine, why cant a diva like K where all pink. THe hair is awesome abd it matches her lips perfectly amd gives her cheeks a pink glow. She loks happy and healthy and is having her own fashion moment while doing it, good for her!

Nay, but she's the fab Katy Perry, so she pulls it off better than most would :)

The pink hair and makeup (minus the brown roots!) would look better with black skinny jeans or skinny leather/pleather jeans, and the pink skirt would look great with blonde hair, the pink jacket (right) and maybe a cream blouse underneath? I really don't know where to place the dome thingie. That's definitely gotta go!

She's so gorgeous, she makes this hideous outfit look great!

like the outfit, reminds me of legally blonde! but agreed pink and brown roots is just a bad combo. I hope she goes back to her original dark hair soon cause she was striking then!
