Rocking a sheer long black gown with a detailed bottom and train, Katy Perry shines on the red carpet of the 2012 MTV VMAs.

Stopping on the carpet to have a little fun with the Fab Five of the U.S. Olympic gymnastics team, Katy paired her dress with loosely waved dark hair for a sleek and simple look.

Known for wearing some of the most memorable awards outfits, we can agree that this detailed dress, that may be daring for some, is a rather safe look for Perry.
