It means that flaws are present, but the total sum of its parts equate to perfection.

If someone says that you are perfectly imperfect, what they mean is that they are aware of your flaws and they see beyond these flaws – they see the flaws as an asset that you have or as something that makes you perfect. A perfect imperfection is a flaw that is so perfect that it no longer appears as a flaw.
