Katy Perry: Studded Shift Dress

Back in December, Katy Perry appeared on the red carpet in an off-white leather dress with a design made of gold studs in varying shapes and sizes. Her exact Geometric-Studded Leather Dress from the Versace Spring 2012 runway collection is available at Neiman Marcus for $7,925.

Fortunately there’s a much cheaper option: for $70.00, roughly one percent of the cost of Katy’s dress, you can get the Studded Shift Dress from Goddiva. Pair it with Michael Antonio “LoveMe” Metallic pumps for $39.99 to complete the Katy Perry look on a budget.

Natalia Kills in Jolie Magazine

Natalia Kills is wearing the Padded One-Shoulder Glitter Dress by Brian Lichtenberg. I haven’t been able to find the blue color in stock anywhere, but you can find this dress in many other colors in Brian Lichtenberg’s store or at Alex and Chloe. You can get the look for less with glittery one shoulder dresses from Goddiva ($52.00) or ASOS ($80.57). ASOS has actually stocked an extremely similar dress in the past, but that one is now sold out.

Cher Lloyd dress

Cher Lloyd appeared for an interview on ITV’s Daybreak wearing the Oldchalk Kaftan Dress from Your Eyes Lie ($56.00). On her dress are some pink embroidered heart badges from Grace DuPrez. These badges are not available online, but the heart rings are only £4.00.

Cher accessorizes with bright pink tights. Normally I love crazy tights, but something is a bit off for me here. I think colored tights look better with a flared skirt or a super-short mini. Overall though I think this is a cute outfit, very playful but with a hint of sophistication.

I don’t know where Cher got her exact tights, but you can pick up similar pairs for only a few pounds from Topshop (pictured), Forever 21, Pretty Polly, or Hue. Get a similar pair of boots from £20.00 at Boohoo.

Natalia Kills is wearing the Eyelet Pinafore Dress by Chloë Sevigny for Opening Ceremony ($1,000). This leather shift dress has laser-cut details on the bodice and along the bottom of the skirt which really pop against the white shirt that she’s wearing underneath.

You can get the look for less by wearing a sleeveless dress like a jumper over a white short sleeve button-up shirt. ASOS has a similar laser cut dress for only $71.62. Find that and more budget-friendly options below:
