Perry riffs on Britney and Justin’s double denim

Katy Perry and Riff Raff took it back to 2001 Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake in matching denim, while Amber Rose channelled Rose McGowan circa 1998 in barely there silver with cascading chains at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Perry popped out of a sports car with rapper Riff Raff onto the red carpet just before the televised awards began. She called her tight, studded patchwork dress a custom Versace in a “throwback to Britney and Justin”, a la the American Music Awards 13 years ago.

“This is how we do the remix,” Perry joked.
