Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with fashion stuff lately, and I just gotta share this wild ride I had with Katy Perry’s Balenciaga outfit. You know, the one she wore at Paris Fashion Week? Yeah, that one. It’s been all over my feed, and I just had to try and understand what the heck was going on there.

First off, I started by digging up some pics and articles about it. Just trying to get a feel for the whole vibe, you know? I saw that she’s been styled by this person named Tatiana Waterford, and apparently, Katy’s been trying out some pretty out-there looks from brands like Rick Owens and stuff. But this Balenciaga thing? This was on another level.
So, I’m looking at this dress, and it’s basically a giant black coat, right? But not just any coat – it’s got these crazy long sleeves, and it’s covered in zippers and straps. It’s like, imagine if a bunch of bum bags decided to become a dress. That’s what we’re dealing with here.
Recreating the Look (Sort Of)
- Gathering Supplies: I didn’t have any Balenciaga bum bags lying around (shocking, I know), so I had to get creative. I grabbed a bunch of old black fabric scraps, some zippers I ripped off old clothes, and a few leather straps from some broken bags.
- The Base: I started with this old black dress I had. It was pretty plain, so it was the perfect base for this experiment.
- Zipper Mania: Then came the fun part – sewing on all those zippers. I just went wild with it, placing them all over the dress in a way that felt kinda chaotic but also kinda cool.
- Strap City: Next, I attached the leather straps. I draped them around the dress, trying to mimic the way they looked on Katy’s outfit. It was tricky, but I think I got the general idea.
Now, I’m not gonna lie, my version was nowhere near as polished as Katy’s. Hers was probably made with some super expensive materials and took hours of work by a team of professionals. Mine? Well, let’s just say it was a bit more… rustic. But hey, I had fun, and that’s what counts, right?
Honestly, the whole thing was more about the process than the final product. It was interesting to see how all these different elements came together to create such a bold and unusual look. And it made me appreciate the creativity and skill that goes into designing high-fashion pieces like this.
Would I wear my creation out in public? Probably not. But it was a cool little project, and it definitely gave me a new perspective on Katy Perry’s style and the world of fashion in general. Plus, now I have a bunch of leftover zippers and straps, so maybe I’ll try making a matching bag or something. Who knows!
