Katy Perry's See-Through Coachella Dress: Hippie Chic or Looking Bleak?

Katy Perry was spotted at the music festival in a sheer dress that showed off some rather choice undergarments. Is this a fail or win in your book?

If Courtney Love and Madonna had a flower child, it would be Katy Perry in this outfit.

The "Part Of Me" singer goes all Woodstock on our asses in this gauzy see-through floral dress with red poppy brooch, black girdle-esque granny pants, matching bra, flat black lace up boots and a flower garland atop her newly extended purple locks. Too bad she abandoned the blue hair—we would have loved to dub her the hippie smurf.

The 28-year-old was one of many celebs in attendance at Coachella...

A list that included Rihanna, Fergie, her hubster Josh Duhamel, Emma Watson, Tallulah Willis, Vanessa Hudgens, Lauren Conrad, and notorious party girls Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. Hope that last one stuck to soda...

The ex-Mrs. Russell Brand must have known she'd be taking a big fashion misstep with this outfit, because she tweeted, "Today's lewk [sic] is sponsored by courtney love, virgin suicides & fern gully #nymph."

Face it, whenever you hear "Courtney Love" and "Fern Gully" in the same sentence the result can never be good. Entertaining perhaps, but not good.
