Katy Perry Ushers In a New Style Era in a Silicon Dress, Seemingly Covered in Wet Hair

Hair that's stuck in the shower drain, but make it . . . sexy? This is the exact description that came to mind upon seeing Katy Perry's skintight dress in her "When I'm Gone" music video, and before you dismiss shower-drain hair as decidedly unsexy, just hear me out. About 30 seconds into Katy's latest video, she pops up to crush some dance choreography in a sheer one-shoulder minidress that appears to be covered in soaked strands of hair, somewhat mimicking her own wet hairstyle. There's no denying Katy looks pretty incredible as she shows off the asymmetrical hemline and figure-hugging fit from all angles - and yes to those knee-high boots!

In reality, the dress is actually made of layered stockings - as in elastic hosiery, not the type you hang on your fireplace for Christmas - and silicone rubber to give that drenched, shiny effect. It was custom-made by up-and-coming fashion designer Joanna Prażmo, who incorporates unexpected materials like melted-down plastic grocery bags and packaging into one-of-a-kind pieces. Although stylist Tatiana Waterford selected a slew of other eye-catching outfits for Katy's "When I'm Gone" video, including a purple corset-style Dolce & Gabbana bodysuit and chainmail Laurel DeWitt halter top, her slick dress is the undeniable highlight.

Between this look and Katy's brown leather corset dress from the 2021 CMAs, it's clear the pop star is heralding in a new style era, and we're very much ready for it. Read ahead to take a closer look at the singer's music video dress, which will hopefully help me conquer my fear of plucking discarded hair from the tub.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
