Katy Perry Rewears Polka Dot Bra and Skirt on Stage 17 Years Later
Katy Perry's still got it.
Perry, 41, dug in the back of her closet and pulled out a familiar-looking design, which she originally wore in 2009, to rock during her concert at Cardiff Castle in Cardiff, Wales, on Tuesday, June 30. The two-piece set features a red-and-white polka dot bra top with halter straps and lace lining her sweetheart neckline. The singer styled the look with a matching A-line miniskirt with a ribbon on her hips.
Perry completed her look with white thigh-high stockings and black patent leather shoes. For glam, she wore her hair pulled back into a half-up coif and twisted it into a bow. She donned a full beat including dewy skin, filled-in eyebrows, long lashes, winged eyeliner and cherry red lips. Perry tied her ensemble together with small silver hoop earrings.
Perry's rewear comes amid her 21-day sweepstakes for her Firework Foundation, which serves to "empower children from underserved communities by igniting their inner light through the arts," per the official site. Perry is auctioning off her old tour looks to raise money for the foundation.
Perry first sported the look back in 2009 while posing at the Capital Radio Summertime Ball in London. At the time, she styled the set with black heels, a gold necklace and tortoise-shell hoop earrings. Her hair was parted down the side and styled in tight curls. Just like now, she rocked a red lip, long lashes and soft eyeshadow.
Perry made sure her fans knew the piece was from her archives by posting side-by-side photos via Instagram. "Learned a wee bit of Welsh. Good to see you again Cardiff," she captioned the post.
Her fans went wild over her rewear in the comments section, with one writing, "u cutie, we love a recycling queen." Another follower commented, "Love love loved this outfit and the hair!!" while a third gushed, "The prettiest outfit, hair and makeup 😍."
