Katy Perry's DNC Outfit Looked Like a Normal Glitter Dress — but It Was Actually So Much More

Updated on July 30, 2016 at 9:00 AM

Katy Perry admittedly owns a ton of Hillary Clinton-themed gear, which she rocked while on the campaign trail with the presidential candidate. But when the star performed on stage at the DNC, she opted to skip something red, white, and blue for a gold and sparkly gown, aka a subtle nod to the American flag.

"She was wearing stars and stripes, but she wasn't wearing an American flag, literally, and that was intentional," her stylist Leslie Fremar revealed to People. "We were trying to make it a little bit more serious but still playful."

Still, the singer did pair a pop of patriotic color with her Michael Kors Resort '17 dress, wearing vintage red, white, and blue jewels from Bulgari. Scroll through to see Katy's look in full. Then check out the Hillary tee a ton of stars have been wearing.
