Lady Gaga On The Meat Dress and 19 Other Iconic Looks | Life In Looks

“I was in the egg for three days,” says Lady Gaga, as she recounts her Life in Looks for British Vogue. She’s talking, of course, about the unforgettable Hussein Chalayan “vessel” she arrived at the 2011 Grammys in, held aloft on a litter by six Latex-clad male attendants (the fetishistic fabric required to make their outfits was sourced from a bus company at the last minute, she reveals). That’s just one of many insights contained in the video that accompanies the House of Gucci star’s December 2021 cover - Gaga also explains that the Schiaparelli look she wore to sing at President Joe Biden’s inauguration was bulletproof. Watch the video in full for more revelations from Lady Gaga’s unique fashion journey.

[@Dinkdownn]

Yessss this! I’ve watched a few where people said they didn’t know what they were thinking. But I thought they looked great! Like… it was a bummer to hear them say that. GaGa really is on another level. Her understanding of art & fashion is unbelievable. And she pays so much respect to the designers and creators of every little thing. Absolute QUEEN.

We can not know what will be tomorrow .. Beyoncé is certainly not the latest. If you're referring to the combination of song and style together, however, I agree. But with Madonna it was the same thing, for years she dominated the music scene with her intuition and made her transformations iconic for generations...despite not having significant singing skills, she built a character...loved/hated.. .by millions of fans. Too bad that after 40 years of career, she ended up in the vortex of eternal youth, to keep up with today's 20-year-olds... It's hard to leave the scepter, especially when one has reigned for a long time... but it's inevitable, musically it's still on the piece but he can't expect to be a teenager again at 63 years old.

“I wasn’t hiding, I was screaming.” This line breaks me in a way. Her little monsters (and others, to be fair) see her thoughtful artistry for what it is. So much thought and feeling goes into everything she does and it baffles me that anyone can call it “reductive” or say she lacks authenticity. I think part of the reason she has such fierce fans is that many of us understand the feeling of screaming out without being heard.

her talking about the outfits during ARTPOP era was heartbreaking, little monsters know how tough it was for her during that era, and that's why ARTPOP will always be my number one fav album of hers because it represents vulnerability and speaks a lot of emotions for me imo. Addtionally, I believe it was way ahead of its time, that's probably why it wasn't as recognized as born this way, at that time.

@@anissyaneena8145 everything happened in that era It all started with applause, that debuted on the same week as Roar of Katy Perry, so at that time there was going a lot of competition between them After Born This Way, she was unbeatable, she was in the edge of her glory, so, a song that didn't did as good as her oldest singles, would be considered a big flop. And yeah, that happened Meanwhile, she left her manager due to creative disagreement on music videos etc. So the promotion for artpop almost didn't existed Do What U Want was also a problem because she initially had feated with R. Kelly, at the time, he was accused by sexual assault, and the director of the music video that wasn't published was also accused by sexual assault Anyway, almost everyone was against her at that era. She was over, flopped etc

[@g0lddustt29]

Look. I love Artpop. I do. But it was just simply not as good of an album, and certainly not as impactful of an album message-wise, as Born This Way. Just a fact.

Now, we look back and appreciates that style because we see it as what it was, camp.

[@vellouki]

This was… wow. Her calm voice explaining the meaning and story behind this screaming outfits- the way she’s very self-aware, not shy in the slightest and so confident makes me want to listen to her and voice despite of my adhd haha She loves art and she makes art, she lives and breathes art and I like how she always gives prompts to her team and people she worked with. I love how she makes statements with fashion and how many wise lessons and words she gave even in this pretty short interview for all but especially young and artistic people who still don’t know how to show themselves. She really inspires not to fear and shows how to shine. She’s a phenomenal sensation for our world and I loved this video ;)

It’s refreshing how INVOLVED, INFORMED & INTELLIGENT she is with her clothing and how it compliments her performance art. She knows her references, everything is intentional. It’s just refreshing. You don’t see it much in the music industry.

she truly is one of the brightest minds of our generation; you can immediately tell that the way she talks about these outfits (that at a first glance can look like an attempt to draw attention) comes from the bottom of her heart, and every single detail has its own explanation and background. she lives and breathes fashion and art and her outfits are one of the ways she puts it out for us. she has never been afraid of putting out into the world her vision. i really do think that gaga's take on art is going to be studied many years from now

@Bored out of my floorboard Meat dress was created by taking the meat from the local butcher, which is not suitable for eating and will be thrown away. So no extra animal was cut for the dress. It was kept in special solutions to eliminate the smell of the meat until the time to wear it in the ceremony. Gaga explained following the awards ceremony that the dress was a statement about one's need to fight for what one believes in, and highlighted her distaste for the US military's don't-ask-don't-tell policy. Her aim was to speak out against this senseless policy, and she succeeded. With the effect of meat dress, the policy came to the fore and a few years later this policy was repealed. If you search, you can see that the meat dress has more meaning and is an action for the benefit of thousands of people.

[@downrighthorizontal9931]

i actually disagree that she's *that* self aware, but i guess a point of a lot of art is to spark conversation haha. she has a lot of meaning but i think she's still an uber rich person whose life is a playground (even if she was poor at one point), personally i am very drawn to true 'punk' art - like that of poor teenagers who actually made the punk movement with cheap things like thrifted, torn clothes, patches, safety pins, like fashion with culture behind it. she makes art but i do think she takes her work a little too seriously and thinks it is life changing for sooo many others; when it has nothing biting at the heels behind it and she is so far removed from others. of course art doesn't need this, she still makes great art, but i find there to be a massive difference in how i perceive and feel about the art vs how the artist as a person was and their situation and background when making it. like those videos of her 'working' at starbucks? her designs are visually interesting but many of them lack substance or it's an unrelatable background. and don't get me wrong, she's very cool and impressive and successful- obviously- shes fascinating and creative and many good things, it just doesnt all really attract me personally. her art is very valid and great, just not for everyone, and it's not without criticism.

[@inma5665]

​@@downrighthorizontal9931 she is in fact extremely self aware, gaga actually frequented true punk places in the real punk scene of NY, she even managed to perform at the CBGB just before they closed the venue, she has totally the punk attitude, she always had it and still has, i think you're judgemental because she makes pop music and is part of the mainstream scene and modern pop culture, but she really has the blood, name a more punk thing than attending an award ceremony, where everyone play dress up and indulge in their privilege and vanities, all covered in blood red raw meat and fake diamonds to protest against an homophobic law and to comment on how women are seen as inanimate dress up meat to consume and please the viewer, she totally disrupted the status quo in multiple occasions during all her career in pop music, her work is full of substance, for example the video of paparazzi an the song itself make an statement about fame and celebrities and how it's a cycle of social death, very thought provoking and interesting, and nothing short of genius honestly....

It is both. She truly wanted to wear those things, but she's lets pretend she's naive to the over the top and "shocking" nature of them. The pop world runs of being manufactured in one way or another. None of it is 100% manufactured though, there's always degrees. You can be shocking and completely artistic at the same time. This combination also has a long history in the art world as well.
