Katy Perry has released new promotional photos for her upcoming Las Vegas residency that pay tribute to the King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley. The 37-year-old American Idol judge donned a custom jumpsuit that was reminiscent of the late icon’s iconic stage outfit, complete with rhinestones and flared sleeves. Perry announced her Play residency in a short video on Monday, which will have her performing eight times in Las Vegas throughout December, January, and March.

Channeling a master: Katy's white jumpsuit was clearly modeled on a variety of splashy white suits worn by Elvis Presley from the late 1960s through the early 1970s following his 1968 comeback special; seen in 1973 for Aloha From Hawaii

Katy Perry, who is 37 years old, gave off an Elvis Presley vibe in a white jumpsuit that she wore to promote her upcoming Las Vegas residency on Instagram. The suit featured flared sleeves and pointy shoulders, with golden fringe running down her arms. The low-cut top had sequins and studs in the shape of playing card suits, highlighting her cleavage. The midriff area had the letters ‘KP-LV,’ which stands for Katy Perry and Las Vegas. The design of the jumpsuit was inspired by the flashy white suits Elvis wore during his performances from the late 1960s through the early 1970s. Elvis had made a comeback wearing black leather in 1968, but he sealed his return by donning several white jumpsuits designed by Bill Belew.
