Katy Perry brought the flair to the King’s coronation on May 6. The Firework singer stepped out sporting a look with a plethora of royal references and we couldn’t love her more for it. The star championed a quintessentially British designer for the grand occasion, which was held at Westminster Abbey.
Katy made a statement in a lilac Vivienne Westwood skirt set that featured a corseted bodice, a boucle finish, a fifties style short-sleeved jacket with a square-neck and a coordinating lavender midi dress showcasing the brand’s signature draping.
The singer certainly didn’t slack on the accessorises front, slipping into a regal pair of evening gloves and adorning a classic Vivienne Westwood three-tier pearl choker necklace with a notable royal link. Known as the ‘Triple-row faux-pearl orb pendant choker,’ the stunning piece that has become a cult favourite among Gen Z fashion followers retails at £400 and has been sported by Dua Lipa, Janelle Monae, Bella Hadid and Kylie Jenner.

Since her passing, The Princess of Wales has manned the pearl fort, often adorning the Queen’s beautiful four-tier pearl necklace for public royal events. The necklace was also once worn by her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana.
