Memorial Day may still be a month away, but Katy Perry is already embracing the return of whites in her wardrobe, starting with her choice of footwear. The singer didn’t just opt for white shoes once but twice, both on Sunday and Monday during “American Idol“.

In the latest episode of Season 22, which began airing in February, the “American Idol” judge was spotted donning two pairs of white shoes: a pair of white sandal heels and another pair of over-the-knee white stiletto boots by Bottega Veneta.

Embracing the sheer shoe trend, her boots were the Atomic style by Bottega Veneta, which featured a mesh upper with rubber sole, exposed back zipper closure and a clear acrylic heel of 3 inches.

Perry also wore mule sandals that featured a prominent front seam running the length of the boots and a slender stiletto heel measuring approximately 3 inches.

As the 39-year-old singer shares her musical insights on the judging panel of the show, she also makes quite the fashion statement, as seen with her Coperni Bridge cowboy boots back in February during the show’s auditions.

Katy Perry’s Shoe Style History

Styled by Tatiana Waterford, the singer consistently showcases her top-tier footwear style when out on the circuit, be it on “American Idol” or on the red carpet. Perry frequently gravitates toward footwear designs featuring towering silhouettes, vibrant color combinations, and distinctive textural details. Recently, continuing her over-the-knee trend, Perry donned a relaxed yet chic slouchy thigh-high style similar to the white pair she wore at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards, this time selecting a sleek black leather rendition.

Katy Perry is not only a renowned singer but also a figure in the footwear industry, which gives her an eye for footwear trends. In 2017, she launched Katy Perry Collections, a brand known for its distinctive and often whimsical shoe designs that match her personal taste, as seen in her red carpet and streetwear looks.
