Katy Perry is not one to cut designer threads.
Katy Perry, known for her vibrant personality and bold fashion choices, found herself in a humorous situation while on the set of an American Idol photoshoot. The 39-year-old singer hilariously struggled to remove a $7,400 Bottega Veneta dress, which seemed to cling tightly to her shoulders.
In an Instagram video shared on Tuesday, April 2, Perry could be seen sitting in a glam chair with a defeated expression as she wrestled with the dress. Despite suggestions to cut the dress off, Perry humorously insisted, “You just can’t cut Bottega.”
The cherry red dress featured a plunging bodice, a padded neckline, and a drop waist, accentuating Perry’s figure with protruding hips and a pleated skirt. She accessorized her look with leather floral-embellished gloves and white mules.
Perry completed her glam with filled-in eyebrows, soft eyeshadow, long lashes, and bright red lips. Her brunette hair was styled in a sleek ponytail, adding to her chic appearance on the set.
“We’ve been cutting kids on #idol but you can’t cut bottega 😔✂️,” she captioned the hilarious post.
Celebrity friends and fans agreed with Perry’s decision in the comments section.
Katy Perry’s fashion mishap on the set of American Idol garnered reactions from her friends and colleagues in the industry. Celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton expressed amusement with a laughing emoji, while Perry’s friend Mia Mortelli jokingly reiterated that the dress couldn’t be cut. Stylist Karla Welch echoed similar sentiments, emphasizing that cutting a Bottega Veneta dress was not an option.
Prior to the incident, Perry showcased her daring style at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards, held on Monday, April 1. She made a statement in a mesh dress featuring side cutouts tied together with red ribbons. Underneath, Perry wore a black bralette and cheeky underwear, pairing the ensemble with knee-high leather boots and oversized black shades. Her hair was styled in beachy waves left flowing down, completing her edgy look for the event.

Katy Perry is known for her fun and adventurous approach to fashion, which has evolved over the years. From her early days as a pop artist to her current status as a seasoned performer, Perry has consistently delivered groundbreaking looks that capture attention.
In 2008, Perry made a statement at a taping of FNMTV in Hollywood with a pink and green dress adorned with a panda bear. She continued her playful fashion choices in 2011 at the NYC premiere of Smurfs, where she wore a white minidress featuring Smurfette’s face, celebrating her role in the film.
The Met Gala has been a platform for Perry to showcase her bold and unique style. In 2015, themed “China: Through the Looking Glass,” she wore a multi-colored gown by Jeremy Scott for Moschino. In 2017, she stunned in a red tulle avant-garde dress by John Galliano, accompanied by a veil and headpiece. However, it was the 2019 Met Gala where she truly embraced the Camp theme, wearing a chandelier outfit and a cheeseburger ensemble with a lettuce slip dress underneath.
Perry’s fashion flair extends beyond the red carpet, as she has turned American Idol into her personal runway. During the show’s past season, she sported a cow-print Christian Siriano number with a breastfeeding panel and a Tinkerbell costume, even bleaching her brows for added effect.
With her fearless fashion attitude and confidence, Perry continues to ignite conversations with her ever-changing styles, ranging from cool and kooky to old Hollywood glam. Her wild and eclectic wardrobe keeps fans guessing and eagerly awaiting her next fashion moment.
