No one dresses for the Met Gala quite like Katy Perry.

She first attended the Metropolitan Museum fundraiser in 2009 and has made numerous appearances at the New York City event since.

Her fashion has also become bolder with each passing year. From a gown with layers of lace to a campy hamburger costume, here are Perry’s Met Gala looks, ranked from least to most iconic.

Katy Perry’s look at the 2009 Met Gala was very understated.

For “The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion” event in 2010, the pop singer wore a blue Tommy Hilfiger gown with an attached neckpiece that matched her large cuff bracelet. She topped it off with shimmering but simple makeup and dark nails.

Although she looked great in the dress and her blunt bob haircut, nothing about the ensemble made it stand out among her other looks.

The singer’s mid-length gown for the 2013 Met Gala didn’t seem to match her personality.

For the “Punk: Chaos to Couture” event in 2013, Perry wore a graphic Dolce & Gabbana dress encrusted in jewels. For the evening, she wore dark lipstick, crucifix earrings, and a gold crown.

Although no one knew it then, the dress now looks like it would have fit better with the “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” theme from 2018. The look was dramatic and beautifully made, but the mid-length cut of the dress didn’t feel true to Perry’s personality. 

Perry looked glamorous in 2022, but her ensemble was ultimately forgettable.

She walked the red carpet in a black and cream number from Oscar de la Renta.

It featured a strapless minidress with exaggerated hips beneath layers of tulle and thicker black fabric. The thin material also wrapped around her shoulder to create a single strap, while floral lace created an asymmetrical neckline.

Perry completed the look with see-through gloves, diamond jewelry, and an updo hairstyle.

Though she looked pretty, her outfit did nothing to honor the night’s “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” theme. It was also quite simple compared to her other Met Gala looks, which made it forgettable.

Although the “Wide Awake” singer still didn’t seem to adhere to the 2015 theme of “China: Through the Looking Glass,” her look seemed to fit her personality more than in past years.

Perry walked the 2015 Met Gala red carpet in a strapless gown by Moschino, a brand known for its bold and sometimes kitschy looks.

Her graffiti-themed gown didn’t seem to have any obvious references to China. But she was accompanied by then-Moschino creative director Jeremy Scott, signaling she may have found a brand that aligned with her creative style.

In addition, Perry looked stunning in a shaggy pixie cut that showed off her bone structure.

Perry’s wearable light dress at the 2010 Met Gala showed some innovation.

Perry’s 2010 Met Gala dress was designed by CuteCircuit, a company that specializes in wearable technology. Shrouded in pastel tulle and strings of light, she looked angelic.

It’s unclear how the dress fit the theme of “American Woman: Fashioning a National Identity,” but at least the musician made a statement on the red carpet.

Perry’s veiled red ensemble for the 2017 Met Gala was dramatic and different, and it attempted to fit the theme of the night.

The musician wore a veiled Maison Margiela ensemble with some odd attachments for the “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons Art of the In-Between”-themed event. The Japanese designer is known for her avant-garde looks using unconventional silhouettes and shapes, so Perry’s look seemed to fit the bill.

Town and Country reported that although the singer’s look was criticized for not fitting the night’s theme, it was designed by John Galliano, a designer heavily influenced by Kawakubo’s work. 

Perry got so much right in this gown with a long train for “Manus x Machina.”

In a black-and-gold Prada gown with elbow-length gloves, Perry looked the part for “Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology” in 2016.

Her beauty choices — blunt bangs, bleached eyebrows, and black lipstick — gave the look a fashion-forward edge. A Tamagotchi was among the many accessories attached to the front of her gown that year.

Some loved it and some hated it, but Perry’s hamburger costume at the 2019 Met Gala after-party was one of the most memorable choices of the night.

Perry’s Moschino hamburger get-up at the after-party for the 2019 Met Gala, “Camp: Notes on Fashion,” definitely made its mark.

The burger was dotted with jewels, matching the bejeweled hairnet over her bleach-blonde bob. The singer also wore burger-themed shoes.

In an interview with Time, designer Tom Ford referenced Perry’s two looks at the 2019 gala, saying that attendees didn’t need to show up to the event in costumes so close to the theme. Still, it was clear Perry had fun changing into her second look of the night. 

Perry dazzled in giant angel wings and a glimmering gold minidress for the “Heavenly Bodies” event in 2018.

In 2018, the singer turned heads with her massive angel wings, gold thigh-high boots, and spiky blonde pixie cut for the “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination”-themed Met Gala.

The Versace look may have been a bit on the nose for a theme called “Heavenly Bodies,” but in a year when many stars brought amazing outfits to the red carpet, Perry stood out as one of the best. 

Perry’s chandelier look for the 2019 Met Gala was beautifully intricate and a little bizarre — but it fit the theme in a way some don’t realize.

Given Perry’s penchant for dramatic looks, it was no surprise that she appeared as a chandelier at the 2019 “Camp: Notes on Fashion” Met Gala. 

The singer again worked with Moschino on the look. Entertainment Weekly reported that the star’s costume seemed to directly reference Susan Sontag’s 1964 essay “Notes on Camp.” 

Sontag wrote: “Camp sees everything in quotation marks. It’s not a lamp, but a ‘lamp,’ not a woman, but a ‘woman.’ To perceive Camp in objects and persons is to understand Being-as-Playing-a-Role. It is the farthest extension, in sensibility, of the metaphor of life as theater.”

Perry’s approach to the evening was smart, sophisticated, and whimsical.
