Lady Gaga For her third costume change of the night, Lady Gaga was stitched into a dress made of raw beef for the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles. Nicola Formichetti, fashion director of Lady Gaga’s creative team Haus of Gaga, conceptualized the dress (and matching boots, clutch and fascinator). Visual sensation has played a pivotal role in the
Icon pop megastar’s global domination. Born in 1986, Stefani Germanotta grew up in New York City and attended an uptown all-girls Catholic school – only to take a stage name and make her mark with racy performances on the downtown club scene where she gathered many devoted fans before taking the world by storm. Her unforgettable outfits include
a nude leotard embellished with translucent bubbles and a jacket made of Kermit the Frogs (typically of Gaga, neither outfit included trousers) as well as Alexander McQueen’s futuristic armadillo high heels.
