Katy Perry showed off her most daring look yet as she arrived for the Balenciaga show in a perilously plunging fur coat on Wednesday.

The singer, 39, set pulses racing by going braless in the revealing look for her latest appearance in the French capital at Haute Couture Fashion Week.

After sources hit back at speculation that Ozempic was the cause of Katy’s trim new physique, the star showed off her jaw-dropping abs as she arrived for the show.

Katy teamed her look with distressed illusion boots that gave the impression of being matching tights, and oversized sunglasses.

She joined big names including Nicole Kidman and Anna Wintour at the star-studded fashion show.

Nicole put on an equally-chic display in a sleek all-black ensemble as she waved to onlookers while making her way into the fashion show. 

Naomi Watts also exuded elegant in a sleek white skirt suit, as she arrived for the fashion event with her child Kai Schreiber, 15, who opted for a black lace dress.

Ashley Graham also put on a busty display in a plunging black velvet corset, with her raven tresses into a wet-look braided bun.

Michelle Yeoh showcased her snazzy sense of style in an oversized PVC leather coat and her curled tresses in a bouncy bob

The look was just the latest in a slew of eye-catching outfits that Katy has sported while attending fashion shows in Paris. 

On Tuesday, the star stepped out in a wild optical illusion biker jacket featuring painted-on cleavage.

She paired the hyper-realistic jacket with snazzy black trousers, also with a painted design, and clear platform heels. 

On Monday, Katy wowed in a spiky denim lace-up corset and maxi skirt co-ord, which was covered in holes.

She debuted the funky look fewer than 24 hours after her surprise appearance on the Vogue World catwalk for Paris Fashion Week.

Katy went completely nude in a geometric cut-out dress as she walked the star-studded runway on Sunday evening.

She strutted around the famed Place Vendôme in front of star-studded guests, wearing towering tie-up heeled boots.

In 2023, Vogue World took place in London, while the year before the Big Apple was the backdrop for the high fashion extravaganza. 

Katy’s trip to Paris comes days after she stripped down to a tiny white bikini to promote her big musical comeback. 

The singer sparked speculation about her weight loss, showcased by the photo, and some questioned whether she used Ozempic.

But an insider told MailOnline that the mother-of-one’s new look is the result of adopting her fiancé Orlando Bloom’s diet and exercise routine.

The routine includes cutting out processed foods and curbing her alcohol intake. 

‘She loves savoury food, she loves chicken nuggets and sugary food, but recently she has been way more disciplined and has chosen to follow Orlando’s diet,’ the source revealed. 

‘She has been working out more because she wants to do some shows to support her upcoming album, so now is the time to look great.’

‘Orlando has been her right-hand man and has helped her out. They eat the same and work out the same. 

‘She has cut out tons of processed food and doesn’t drink that much. She has been looking incredible because she is sticking to the new routine.’

Katy and Orlando began dating in 2016, split in 2017, reunited in 2018, and got engaged on Valentine’s Day 2019.

Their daughter Daisy Dove was born in August 2020 and she has a brother, Flyn, 13, from Orlando’s marriage to Miranda Kerr. 

After unveiling the cover art for Woman’s World and sharing a video from the shoot, fans were quick to speculate that she had used a weight loss wonder drug – a favorite of celebrities including Sharon Osborne, Scott Disick and Oprah Winfrey – to achieve her new figure.

But the insider shot down such claims, insisting her toned physique is down to working ‘hard.’

‘Her weight loss has nothing to do with any help from Ozempic or weight loss drugs,’ they added. ‘She just worked hard and is eating better than ever.’

On July 11, Katy will release Woman’s World, the former American Idol judge’s first single since 2021. The song will be the first from Katy’s upcoming seventh studio album.

The star-studded front row for Balenciaga comes two years after the iconic designer was thrown into chaos after running a pair of adverts featuring a child holding a teddy bear dressed in a BDSM outfit and another with court documents about child pornography.

The ensuing scandal saw a mass boycott of Balenciaga products, with some critics even burning clothes and graffitiing store fronts.

The brand issued an apology, but over a year on sales were still down with the ‘Other Houses’ division it falls into at parent company Kering dropping 15 percent in the third quarter of 2023, according to Vogue.

In the photo shoot, the kids also appeared surrounded by empty wine and champagne glasses.

The adult themes troubled many who asked why children had ever been used.

Balenciaga ignored the scandal at first and seemed to allow the photographer who was involved, Gabriele Galimberti, to take the heat.

He released a statement saying he had no control over the content of the shoot and eventually, Balenciaga released its own statement agreeing with him and taking responsibility for the campaign. It has since been pulled from the internet.

After the BDSM bears adverts, critics started examining the rest of Balenciaga’s campaigns.

They found that in the background of an image from the Spring ’23 campaign was a printout of a Supreme Court ruling on whether or not internet child porn can be legally considered free speech.

On the back of the bears scandal, many critics said it pointed to a troubling pattern within Balenciaga.

Balenciaga blamed North Six, a production company that helped arrange the shoot, for the inclusion of those documents.

They claimed that they entrusted all of the props from the photoshoot to North Six, and that their team was assured everything that was included was fake.
