The world of fashion moves fast, but Lady Gaga apparently moves even faster as she appeared at the 95th Academy Awards wearing a Versace dress that had just appeared on the runway three days ago in Los Angeles.
First worn by Gigi Hadid, the gown consisted of a long-sleeve sheer top featuring black corseting while the skirt was a drop-waist in black satin.
From the front, it was a stunning example of vampy glamour. From the back, it was pure Lady Gaga – glamour, with a twist: that drop waist was dropped deliberately lower to reveal le petit derriere.
Dramatic make-up added extra va va voom to the already sizzling look, done by Sarah Tanno, while hair was worn in a stylised braid. Additional dazzle came in the form of Tiffany & Co diamond bracelet and necklace.
While there was talk that Lady Gaga could potentially be performing her Award-nominated song ‘Hold My Hand’ from Top Gun: Maverick, it had been reported that scheduling hadn’t allow it.
But perhaps in the spirit of the film title, Gaga surprised everyone by appearing on stage in ripped jeans and a t-shirt to delivere a raw rendition of the nominated track. As one colleague asked, how did she get all that eye make-up removed so quickly?

Was this actually pre-recorded? Can’t way for the conspiracy theories to begin.
Gaga is currently filming Joker: Folie à Deux, the follow up movie to Joaquin Phoenix’s groundbreaking Joker, which she plays Harley Quinn.
