Why Did Katy Perry Have a 500-Ft Train on Her Red Gown?
After impressing at the Vogue World show, Katy Perry continued to generate buzz at the Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2024/25 event at The Ritz Hotel on June 25.
Perry entered the Paris’ Vendôme looking stunning in a red mono-sleeve ruched mini dress that featured a 500-foot train.

One user commented, “What a waste of fabric and a tripping hazard.” “Absolutely ridiculous,” sneered one netizen, dismissing the artist’s flamboyant spectacle. The red gown’s seemingly endless train featured the lyrics of Perry’s new single, “Woman’s World,” set to be released on July 11.
