Katy Perry Collections is a line of footwear founded by American singer Katy Perry.

History

The brand was founded by American singer-songwriter Katy Perry on February 16, 2017, when she partnered with Global Brands Group. Perry wanted to create a brand that reflected her personality while being accessible to a broad audience. Some inspirations for founding it are Perry's Dalmatian-print pair of flats that she thrifted, as well as her her refusal to wear uncomfortable shoes. [1]

Perry bought back the line in 2022 after the holding company filed for bankruptcy in 2021. Perry is currently the sole owner. [2] Afterwards, Perry relaunched the brand with the Summer/Spring 2022 Collection in the same year. [3] She followed it by launching a collection called the Fall/Winter Part 2. [4]
