DUBAI: US singer and songwriter Katy Perry put an Arab designer in the spotlight this week while filming her house-inspired music video for the single “Lifetimes”.
She wore the Glass Dalida PVC platform mules by Romanian-Jordanian shoe designer Amina Muaddi. The shoes have a clean design, with the entire structure, including the heel and platform, made of transparent material. The open-toe mules have a flared, chunky heel.
The music sensation paired the heels with a metallic silver mini dress called Shanghai by Ibiza-based brand Jennyinibiland. The dress features a halter neck with a cut-out detail on the front, adding to its futuristic vibe. The fabric has a reflective, mirror-like finish.
As an accessory, she chose the KA YO CHIMI Silvaner Clear sunglasses by Chimi, a Swedish brand known for its stylish and innovative eyewear. The sunglasses feature a clear frame and tinted lenses.
Perry will release the music video on August 9, she wrote on Instagram, sharing photos from her shoot.
The singer has been dropping big hints about the single over the past week, posting clips on social media of him using the song as a soundtrack.
The song “Lifetimes” follows the release of her female-focused single “Woman's World,” the first track from her upcoming sixth album, “143.”
Although she hasn't announced the album's full tracklist, it's set to drop on September 20. During livestreams on Instagram and TikTok, she previewed some songs and features, including “I'm His He's Mine” featuring Doechii, “Gimme Gimme” featuring 21 Savage, and “Nirvana.”
Perry released her latest album, Smile, in August 2020, which included “Daisies,” the title track “Smile,” “Never Really Over,” “Harleys in Hawaii,” and “Cry About It Later.”
Muaddi's label has built a huge following among some of the world's most famous celebrities, with fans including Dua Lipa, Gigi Hadid, Kylie Jenner and Hailey Bieber Baldwin, all of whom have been spotted wearing their designs on numerous occasions.
In 2021, her influence and impact on the fashion world was further recognized when she secured a spot on Women's Wear Daily and Footwear News' prestigious “50 Most Powerful Women” list.
