ARTSIST COSTUME ANALYSIS
Many different artists in this day and age like to seperate their identities from others mostly through their clothing and costumes which gies their name an image they will be perceived by. They can vary between styles some being more out there and seen as 'weird' choices which most would not consider wearing where as some like to keep it casual and wear stereotypically 'normal' clothing being daytime items including jeans, T-shirts and jackets. An example of a more caasual costume choice is Sam smith in his music video 'stay with me' who is seen wearing the clothing stated above in contrast to artists like Lady gaga who has always been known for her whacky outfits including the famous 'meat dress'.
Below i have selected multiple artists and their costume variations.

Katy's 'Candy dress' displays lots of ice creams and lollipops adding detail to her dress which can be seen as childrens luxuries showing she may have a childish side and is not afraid to show it.
Katy's matching sparkly bikini insired outfit displays she is confident and red is usually linked with lust and attractive on a woman so she is showing her more adventerous and wild side.
'Last friday night' seeks katy having a less glamorous look starring as a 'nerd' with big glasses, a brace and dungarees
All of the images displayed above i have selected because they represent katy perry and reflect parts of her personality. Katy has mostly been known for her daring costume choices like when she wore several different candy costumes in her 2010 music video 'california gurls' as shown one with the matching red tight high waist hotpants and a bra like top here she is seen squirting cream from her chest and the short candy dress and purple wig both of which outfits are very vibrnt and quite revealing showing she is not afraid of being judged and the use of bright colours could link with her outgoing and bubbly personality.
