Fashion Icon, Georgio Armani is Gaga for Gaga: Always has been.
I wanted to share this article by Robin Givhan for the fans of Gaga.
'Armani, the unlikeliest designer to be jolted by Gaga juice, discovered her in the most mundane way: He saw her perform at the American Music Awards a little more than a year ago. “I was struck by her extraordinary talent for writing music and her mastery of her own voice,” the designer says. And he was enamored by how she’d “deliberately created a totally outlandish personality.”
Most celebrities come to Armani seeking salvation from their tasteless ways. But Gaga did not genuflect. She inspired the designer to craft a brilliant silver minidress with a lightning-bolt head ornament. He made a black leather bodysuit for her “Alejandro” video. He stocked a wardrobe trunk for her current tour. She even induced him to create a green spangled leotard with shoulders like Mickey Mouse ears. Armani was clearly intoxicated by Gaga. And that last look was the fashion equivalent of drunk dialing.
“No other artist would give me the opportunity to devise such original and way-out creations,” Armani explains. “Lady Gaga’s costumes are a pure creativity exercise that allows me to design spectacular, almost surreal pieces.”'
