Blame my entry today on Katy Perry. I just couldn’t get over the look she pulled early this week.
The gorgeous singer attended the premiere of her concert film, Katy Perry: Part of Me 3D, in a stunning ruby red full-skirted velvet dress that simply looked too plush and lush to ignore.

To add sugar onto the icing, she paired the number with an equally red set of velvet pumps. You could say she looked like a retro 60’s screen siren out to promote her movie.
She toted a cake slice crystal minaudière by American-Hungarian fashion designer Judith Leiber and accessorized with a Tacori diamond silver cuff bracelet.

And with her creamy white skin, the dress really stood out and took center stage. Hey, I even forgot about the purple hair, which by the way, was quite pretty in waves.

Doesn’t she look exquisite here? Yes, a little on the theatrical side, but still quite beautiful.
For those who don’t know yet, the velvet dress is actually from Dolce & Gabbana, and so are the shoes. I’m not exactly sure from which collection, but I’m guessing it would be Fall 2012.
If you’re willing to splurge on a velvet dress, simply wait or visit a Dolce & Gabbana store and inquire about it.
For those interested to steal the look and give it a more realistic take, grab this red satin dress and finish it with high sheen extras – red satin pumps and a red clutch:
