Met Gala 2019: Lady Gaga on the red carpet (courtesy AFP)
Highlights
- Lady Gaga and her four outfit changes just stole the show at Met Gala
- Lady Gaga took the 'camp' theme very seriously
- The Internet is filled with memes featuring Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga shut down the Met Gala this year with what was essentially a striptease on the red - actually pink - carpet. The theme was camp fashion and nobody does camp quite like Lady Gaga who wore four outfits, one beneath the other and revealed each in quick succession live while making the grandest of entries. She began in a giant fuchsia ballgown by Brandon Maxwell with an outsize train and a bow to match in her hair. Beneath it, a black gown with only a slightly smaller silhouette, accessorized with, wait for it, an umbrella, making Lady Gaga look like a goth Mary Poppins. She took the dress off to reveal a fuchsia sheath below, ditching the umbrella for a Judith Leiber clutch in the shape of a retro cell phone. Underneath it all was her very last outfit - the bare minimum in sparkly black fishnet.
That's how you break the Internet.
