Katy Perry's Victorian Dreams Go Up in Flames in 'Unconditionally'

Katy Perry has found an era that suits her perfectly -- Victorian.

The pop star went retro-chic in a visually stunning music video for power ballad "Unconditionally," the second single from her "Prism" album. There are gowns, snow, pearls, flower petals, an owl, underwater scenes and a bed on fire -- so nothing really out of the ordinary for Perry.

Yes, unconditional love sometimes feels like being hit by a car... Or being on fire... How does it feel to you?— Katy Perry (@katyperry) November 20, 2013

The singer recently told MTV that this music video would be a departure from her other videos because it "doesn't have a complete narrative."

"I usually have quite a big story line," she said. "This time I wanted to give a lot of gorgeous, beautiful looks, which I don't usually go for. But it's mostly just a beautiful video that is supposed to evoke this power of love."

Mission accomplished, Katy.

Perry also released a lyric video for the song in October, featuring models Janell Shirtcliff and Erika Linder.
