Katy Perry lights up the MET Gala!

Katy looked fabulous and glowing wearing a CuteCircuit gown as she entered the MET Costume Institute Gala last night in New York City. The Gala is the event of the year, often described as the Oscars of Fashion, bringing together celebrities and fashion in a spectacular display.

CuteCircuit created a couture gown for Katy with meters and meters of flowing silk chiffon and over 3000 LEDs creating a rainbow of colours shimmering around Katy as she entered the ball.

Grazia included Katy in the Best Dressed list for the event, and Life Magazine include her in their online feature The Fashion A-List. See even more pictures of Katy at the Met Gala in this feature from the the Daily Mail.

The New York Magazine said about the Met Gala, “The most exciting part of the evening, sartorially speaking, was Katy Perry’s light-up dress”!
