Katy Perry is known for having a unique sense of fashion and never just wears a boring and ordinary outfit. So first, I gave my Katy a pair of rose-coloured glasses because in her song Chained To The Rhythm, she sings the lyric 'Put your rose-coloured glasses on'. Next, her trademark short cropped hairstyle remained the same. The romper that she's wearing has a variety of pictures and colours on them. The purple item on the top is meant to resemble a pair of wings, since in her song Power she references her wings. There are numerous flowers on the romper, which are also referenced in the same song. The big wad of white stuff on the bottom is actually a clump of crumped up receipts that signifies the receipts mentioned in the song Pendulum. The stars are five Michelin stars and the donut bracelet are both from Bon Appetit, The small waves are depicting the lyrics from Bigger Than Me

I decided that Katy should wear a pair of boots because during the Witness tour she's been wearing boots a lot. A rollercoaster cuts through her boots to show some skin, breaking the patterns that'd have otherwise be going through the whole boot. The rollercoaster is from Chained To The Rhythm and the broken pattern is from Bigger Than Me.
