Katy Perry Radiates in Holographic Jimmy Choo Sandals and Lip Service Moto Jacket
In November 2013, while promoting her newly released album Prism, Katy Perry turned heads as she arrived at the 1Live radio station in Cologne, Germany.

Katy’s prism-inspired ensemble shines without going over the top—her minimal accessories and soft makeup let the holographic pieces take center stage.

Her sandals feature crisscross straps in patent leather with a holographic finish that reflects a rainbow of colors.
The adjustable buckled straps and lacquered 3 3/4-inch heels subtly elongated Katy Perry’s 5’7″ (170.2 cm) frame, adding height while maintaining a sleek, futuristic silhouette.

Just a month after her shimmering radio appearance in Germany, Katy Perry kept the holographic vibes going with another bold fashion choice—this time on the red carpet in Las Vegas.
Katy Perry Shimmers in Sequined UNIF Dress at Britney Spears’ Residency Launch
Joining Miley Cyrus on the red carpet for the grand opening of Britney Spears’ two-year residency, Britney: Piece of Me, at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Katy Perry wore a cream-colored dress by UNIF made of distractingly shiny material.

A lifestyle brand from Los Angeles, California, UNIF stands for “Ur Not in Fashion” and was founded in 2010 by Eric Espinoza and Christine Lai. The brand’s celebrity fans include Hayley Williams, Lily Allen, and Vanessa Hudgens.
Katheryn Elizabeth “Katy” Hudson, professionally known as Katy Perry, styled the dress with a pink mini leather backpack by Chanel, a white tulle miniskirt, black over-the-knee socks, and black leather platform buckled boots.
On December 27, 2013, Katy Perry attended the “Britney: Piece of Me” grand opening in Las Vegas, rocking a sequined UNIF No Nu Frenz jersey dress styled with a white tulle mini skirt, black over-the-knee socks, chunky platform boots, and a metallic pink Chanel mini backpack (Credit: Judy Eddy / WENN)
We now understand the meaning of the phrase “Nu Frenz,” which is embroidered on the sequined, jersey-inspired dress. “Nu Frenz” is a playful take on “New Friends,” suggesting contentment with one’s current circle.
Fashion critics appreciated some aspects of her outfit, but were not impressed with how Katy combined them into one ensemble. The singer’s dress is no longer available online.
