That Story About Lady Gaga Returning a Gown With Semen On It? Not as Crazy as You’d Think

So yesterday the New York Post ran this story, “Red Carpet Lending Nightmares,” detailing the distressed condition designer gowns are returned in after they’ve been worn by a celebrity on the red carpet.

The most salacious story? An anonymous PR told the tab that Lady Gaga returned a Mugler gown with what looked like a semen stain on it. “It was so disgusting,” she said. “I couldn’t even tell you.”

After polling various PRs who lend out designer dresses to celebrities on the regular, we’re not at all surprised by this story.

The Debate About ‘Slut Clothes,’ Formichetti Moves On From Mugler, and Dressing Like the Women of Mad Men
Week In Review

The Debate About ‘Slut Clothes,’ Formichetti Moves On From Mugler, and Dressing Like the Women of Mad Men

What’s In A Word? We take issue with T Magazine’s dismissal of “slut clothes” and take a look back at decades of so-called “slut style.”

And Speaking of “Slut Clothes”: That dress that Julia Roberts wore as Vivian in Pretty Woman is hot stuff, with Emma Watson donning the look on the latest issue of British GQ and versions of the dress selling out fast.

Look Fresh-Off-The-Runway for Prom! We pick out prom-perfect dresses inspired by looks fresh off the Spring 2013 runways. And the best thing? They won’t break the bank.

I Spy With My Fashion Eye… A Rip-Off! Satirical blog Humor Chic’s “No Fakes” campaign suggests Raf Simons and Miuccia Prada may have been a little too inspired by some vintage designs.

Mugler Fall 2013: Traveling Through Time in Style

PARIS– “Muglerrrr…Muglerrrrr….” I can’t think of Mugler without thinking about the vaguely pornographic video Nicola Formichetti created to coincide with his Spring 2012 menswear collection for the futuristic brand, on which he works with designer Sebastien Peigne.

Maybe that’s a good thing, because Mugler’s redefined identity—an out there version of its already out-there ethos—has stayed with me. And it was fully evident in fall 2013′s collection.

Lady Gaga to Cathy Horyn in New Mugler Rap: ‘Your Style Ain’t Dick’

Nicola Formichetti has been collaborating with Lady Gaga for years now and their latest partnership debuted during Wednesday night’s Mugler show. And it’s…interesting.

The show, which was awesome, was scored by a new Lady Gaga rap track. Yes, rap. And while Gaga’s voice was distorted to make her sound like a dude for some reason, the words were definitely hers, proving yet again that you don’t fuck with a Mugler woman.

The Best Looks from Azealia Banks’s New ‘Liquorice’ Music Video, Styled by Nicola Formichetti

We were beside ourselves when we heard back in January that Azealia Banks and Nicola Formichetti were working together on the rapper’s music video for “Liquorice.” Six months later, Nicola Formichetti-styled video is finally here, and it is awesome. It might have something to do with the fact that famed fashion photog Rankin directed it. Read more →
