Lady Gaga Hairball Doll & National Hairball Awareness Day

Samantha Lim — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 14:58:12 +0000

National Hairball Awareness Day (we didn’t know about this either) is coming up on April 27 and the pet product company FURminator has decided to raise awareness with this, for lack of a better word, creative hairball sculpture contest. Blogger Laura Bennett created this Lady Gaga contender, reminding us about the beauty can be found in eating a bunch of hair and hacking it back up.

Designer Daily: Zana Bayne

Jessica Lapidos — Sat, 10 Mar 2012 02:15:43 +0000

We’ve got the Friday night special in the form of leather mistress Zana Bayne. Self-taught in the craft, she has the kind of design eye that brings the kink to this side of chic. She has harnessed the power of Lady Gaga and Prabal Gurung in the form of videos and ongoing collaborations. She’s powerful. This kickass Brooklynite applied her study of conceptual art to leather and the body, and one of the main thoughts it has me pondering (aside from historical connotations of leather in S&M, objectification of the human body, feminist ideals, etcetera) is how late is Patricia Field open? I might just pick one up tonight.

The leather harness Lady Gaga writhed around in during the Yoü and I video was made by the hands of Zana Bayne. Badass. Paws up.

Prabal Gurung collaborated this season on a series of belts and harnesses that connect waist to the neck.

You can find the Zana Bayne collection in NY at Opening Ceremony and Patricia Field.

Lady Gaga Launches Born This Way Foundation

Samantha Lim — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 17:30:38 +0000

In her continuing mission to outlaw bullying, Mother Monster Lady Gaga has launched her own charity, aptly named Born This Way. Started with her mother, the foundation aims to inspire & encourage bravery, love, and acceptance in those young and old, set to launch in 2012. We love hearing that her superstardom is being put to good use!

Gaga says about the project: “My mother and I have initiated a passion project. We call it the Born This Way Foundation. Together we hope to establish a standard of Bravery and Kindness, as well as a community worldwide that protects and nurtures others in the face of bullying and abandonment.”

Do Not Anger Gaga Mugler, She Will Eat You

Danika Daly — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 15:31:09 +0000

Nicola Formichetti brought in reinforcement from his bestie Lady Gaga for his sophmore Mugler show at Paris Fashion Week. Gaga has been on a short film fiasco lately, ever since she teamed up with fashion photographers Inez and Vinoodh, who created her “You And I” music video. In a smoky room at the Mugler Spring 2012 show in Paris, entered the Mother Monster’s close-up on a large screen with gapped teeth and the infamous floor-sweeping ponytails from her Mugler runway debut.

Gaga gave details about the Mugler woman in a raspy whisper. In a nutshell, “don’t f*** with the Mugler woman”, she is quiet and strong, and she will eat you.”

The quiet, carnivorous Mugler models entered the runway in elegant designs that resembled paper cutouts from a Tim Burton film, with a more sophisticated touch than the Fall/Winter 2011 liquid latex S&M looks. The looks were actually wearable.

The slicked hair, lime green lips, glitter eyebrows, needle thin stilettos and asymmetric cut-out costumes in white, black and neutral tones with pops of color were designed for the futuristic sophisticate.

Formichetti took to Tumblr throughout the week to tease fans with tidbits of what to expect at the show. As usual, Gaga + Formichetti = captivating fashion theatrics, though we would have loved to see the Mugler muse werq her way down the runway again.

See the full show here.

Gaga Hearts on Brit Brit at the J. Shore

Samantha Lim — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 14:08:06 +0000

It was the meeting of pop royalty when Lady Gaga took in Britney Spears‘ Femme Fatale show in New Jersey’s Hotlantic City this weekend. The crowd went bananas when Spears opened the show announcing, “I have a very special guest tonight…Lady Gaga is here!” Gaga stood, waved, and threw out a heart symbol. Britney promptly hearted her back, birthing the next “high five” amongst tween girls and gays across the country. Mother Monster was later spotted double fisting drinks and hitting up the blackjack tables at the Borgata Resort, letting fans know that she too has the vice-succumbing potential of her popstar counterpart.

Iris Van Herpen: Haute Couture Requires Blueprints

Jessica Lapidos — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 14:12:03 +0000

As we enter this month of Art and Architecture at FashionIndie, we must discuss further a young designer who has elevated the notion of couture. Iris van Herpen creates a synergy between the finest handiwork and the technologically advanced. For this collection shown in Paris as part of Haute Couture fashion week, Capriole, she worked with architect Isaie Bloch and MGX to create 3D prints which were then translated into textiles. What resulted is function that follows the most stunning form from which all else stems.

She also happened to intern with Alexander McQueen. Behold.

Whose Muse is This Dude?

Jessica Lapidos — Tue, 03 May 2011 13:11:16 +0000

This dude in a baseball hat is either super drunk or is trying to cast some curse on the photographer. Possibly both. But who the hell is he? Look at the poster above his arm for a clue… could his curse be backfiring on him?

He is none other than Rick Genest, aka Rico, aka Zombie Boy, aka the muse of Mugler’s and Gaga’s Nicola Formichetti.

As Formichetti told Hint, “I had his picture on my wall forever. I saw it one day on Google. I thought it was amazing Halloween make-up done by Peter Philips or something.”

We all know by now that that shit is permanent. Well, Formichetti went on to find Zombie Boy’s true identity and to find him on Facebook, and whisked him away to Paris (having paid his near 20 thousand dollar fines for sleeping in the street, and also having gotten him a passport in record time), to have him model in his debut men’s show.

Now that you’ve seen the before and after, which way do you prefer Rick Genest?

Lady Gaga & Nicola Formichetti Make Mugler Video Sizzle

Jessica Lapidos — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 22:31:19 +0000

In a show that had Lady Gaga’s paw print cemented to the aesthetic, Nicola Formichetti insurrected Mugler with a visual feast. Gaga’s gave us a taste of her new single Government Hooker as she made her modeling debut, working her monstrous platforms better than many professional models worked their curvaceous heels. On the live stream (or the luckiest, in Paris) we watched the show in its entirety, with Gaga’s new song interspersed with a hopped up version of Born This Way. Now we can watch it in the concise manner the Creative Director envisioned it. Gagalicious video ahead.

Sheer-bodied solid-armed pieces sauntered alongside pleather-cum-latex pants and trenches, surrounded by the sky-high shoulders of the eighties’ Thierry Mugler. The shoulders that Gaga helped to resurrect. As the looks turned to rubberized armor amongst a show where models became lively sirens, clutching at the wooden column archway, becoming little monster on the runway, the Mugler philosophy came to light: Entertainment.

We just stumbled upon GagaDaily, a blog devoted to tracking Lady Gaga’s every fashion move. Blog mistress Catherine recently posted recently about one of Gaga’s Tweets, in which she envisions herself arriving in New York in “leather, high heels and an attitude,” and voila, not long after she showed up at the airport in the outfit featured here. The singlet is from new London designer Void of Course, the shoes, called “Nude Night Makers,” are Noritaka Tatehana, plus she’s carrying a Hermes bag, customized by Haus of Gaga.
