Katy Perry showcases a bold KNWLS outfit at The Morning Mash Up in Las Vegas, promoting her upcoming tour set to begin in April.
Katy Perry made an appearance at The Morning Mash Up show at SiriusXM Studios in Las Vegas on Thursday, February 27, where she promoted her forthcoming “The Lifetimes Tour.” This much-anticipated tour is set to commence in Mexico City on April 23.
During her visit, Perry showcased an eye-catching ensemble from the London-based brand KNWLS, known for its eclectic designs. She wore a distinctive brown leather corset characterized by chap-style straps that extended to her legs, layered over the brand’s gray “Ghost” bike shorts. Completing her look, Perry opted for a matching bolero-style cape jacket featuring detachable sleeves, enhancing the overall bold aesthetic.
On her feet, Perry donned the KNWLS “Hellz” biker-inspired boots, which are priced at approximately $1,683. The knee-high boots are made from brown leather and feature adjustable buckle straps and square toes, rounded off by a subtly curved 3.5-inch heel, accentuating the edgy style of the outfit.
KNWLS, founded in 2017 by Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault, originally operated under the name Charlotte Knowles before rebranding in 2021. The brand first made its runway debut at London Fashion Week in 2018 and became a finalist for the prestigious LVMH prize in 2022. Known for its inspiration drawn from lingerie and corsetry, KNWLS has garnered a following among numerous celebrities, including Dua Lipa, Hunter Schafer, and Beyoncé. Recently, British actress Anya Taylor-Joy was spotted wearing the brand’s buckled lace-up boots from its Spring 2025 collection.
Perry has been collaborating with stylist Tatiana Waterford in creating her recent bold looks. Waterford, who began working with Perry in 2019 during the music video for “Never Really Over,” became her lead stylist after a few years. Reflecting on her work with Perry, Waterford noted in a 2021 Vogue Australia interview, “I’ve worked with her ever since, although I became her lead stylist fairly recently.”
In 2022, Perry gained complete ownership of her footwear brand, Katy Perry Collections, after a six-year partnership with Global Brands Group Holding Ltd. This move followed the bankruptcy filing of Global Brands Group USA Inc. in 2021. Perry expressed her intent to take control of her brand, stating, “I decided to take complete ownership and level up, find great partners, develop my team and put into practice all of the education I have learned — and just be that CEO boss bitch that I want to be,” as reported by Footwear News.
