A New Fashion Icon

Filed under: Fashion Smashion > Katy Perry

Katy Perry wowed the crowd at Spike TV's 2nd Annual "Guys Choice" Awards in L.A. on Friday night.

Not only did she impress with her performance of her hit song I Kissed A Girl, which is currently #2 on the iTunes singles chart, but she also dazzled with her special sense of style.

Rocking not one but two different outfits at the awards ceremony, Katy showed off her love and re-interpretation of the old school Hollywood glamour girls.

She's like a younger, more fun Dita Von Teese, another of our favorites!

Again with the double standards. Aren't you all for gay rights etc etc? You should take a look at her lyrics (pretty homophobic, especially "I Kissed a Girl") yet you support her left and right. Think about what you're doing Perez. It just takes a minute but it makes a difference to many!

Kira says – reply to this

16

Of course Perez would say that she's amazing. Because they're good friends in real life! Such favortism. Although I do think she looked great.
Gia says – reply to this

I love Katy, but her style is NOT unique. I see alot of female singers who dress like her. Wino. Lots of girl punk singers. Zooey Deschanel. etc, etc. . Sorry, but not a unique style.

Hyde says – reply to this

30

LOL! Starfish in her ears and a shiny aluminum foil dress aren't exactly, "Old Hollywood"!! I don't care for her choices at ALL.

31

Get that girl a bra!
Cat says – reply to this

32

Dita von Teese? Are you actually joking??? FOREHEAD!
latti says – reply to this

33

Looks like she took style tips from Winehouse. Tight top, flaired skirt, heels, and star-shaped earrings. Actually, if she hadn't lost weight, tatooed her whole body and worn a beehive–Amy might look somewhat like this. I still love Amy, I just had to point this out.
LG says – reply to this

Re: isis – why are you hurting me??? I cried because of you =(
Um, I says – reply to this

41

Perez- i think you have a great ear for music and i always love your highlights on new songs and artists BUT i have to say- fashion is not your thing my friend.

All though katy is adorable, her look is NOTHING like a young fun dita. Your eye for style is rubbish and needs some fine tuning. Keep to what you do best- gossip, bitching and music.
isis says – reply to this

Re: jandy – because you called my cousin dita ugly you tard. cry some more BABY

what a fucking poser. dumb bitch.
smeeja says – reply to this

46

well, we can tell you had fun at the awards. and maybe too much booze mixed with too little sleep. don't get me wrong, katy is really cute. but cute is not dita. dita has a presence and an elegance that we haven't seen the likes of in decades. dita's not even white, she's translucent. like a fine piece of limoges.
schmal says – reply to this

47

love love LOVVVVE her. She is the next big thing for sure. I have loved everything she's done.
MORE KATY MORE KATY MORE KATY!

Perez…THANK YOU for introducing me to such a cool artist. I never heard of Katy before your blog and I'm definitely a fan now. I play that song religiously. And play that video for all my guys friends who think katy is sooo hot in a very cool unconventional way. I'm a girl that would DEFINITELY make out with her…Katy if you are reading this hook it up hahaha

Special Sense of Style? Yeah, like retarded? This has all been done before and better by a number of other women out there. She doesn't appear to be that stylish to me. What, did she buy one of your T-shirts or something?

GOD. I hate her. Her song is so homophobic, it only perpetuates the belief that girls only make out to turn on straight men in bars.

Which is not the case.

Only with dumb girls.

I love the music that Perez has introduced me to!! I met a distant cousin of Mika's the other week. I was the only person at the party who knew who he was. I adore Katy Perry and numerous other artists featured on this site. Even if i didn't enjoy the gossip, the music tips are worth it!!! One of my faves is Kate Nash!! Keep up the good work!! Loves it!
