Katy Perry made a bold statement at the Vogue World: Paris runway show on Sunday, June 23, at Place Vendôme. Alongside stars like Venus and Serena Williams, Ciara, and FKA twigs, and models like Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner arriving on horseback, Perry, 39, stunned in an archival Noir Kei Ninomiya dress. The dress, with its geometric design and tulle floral embellishments, turned heads as she walked the runway. Vogue praised her electrifying presence on Instagram, calling it a highlight of the event. Fans were mostly supportive, with many calling her a queen, saying things like, “Now this is a walk,” and “Her ability to pull off anything is amazing.” Some humorously compared her to “The Hunger Games,” while others said, “What a force.” However, not everyone agreed. Some critics deemed the dress “weird” and lamented the shift from classic supermodels to pop stars and reality TV personalities, calling it “sad.”
