The Intersection of Pop Music and Fashion

Music and Fashion have inspired each other for more decades than I myself have been alive, but already in 2011 thus far the two worlds are existing so closely together that it seems they might merge into a beautiful, inspired nebula.

If that sentence does not immediately evoke images of "Our Lady of Pop" Lady Gaga and Mugler designer Nicola Formichetti than you have yet to experience the fashion orgasm that is their collaboration.


The Mugler show at last weeks Paris Fashion week featured a 5'3 Gaga walking the runway to her own "Born This Way" An unreleased track from Gaga's new Album, due out May 23, 2011, was intended for the show, but in final runs of the show Thierry Mugler was so inspired by "Born This Way" that he chose to use the title track for the runway show.



Although Gaga is famously associated with the late Alexander McQueen, she has also obviously been a Mugler Muse for quite some time. You can find Mugler designs in the Paparazzi video, and recently On the March cover of Billboard Magazine, in her 2011 Grammy Performance, and sporting the feminine Menswear suit in the Video for "Born This Way."



As an inspired fan I can say that I am looking forward to more collaborations from the two, as well as what direction her own design house Haus of Gaga will go as the release of her long awaited album draws near.

And may the ever changing Lady Gaga continue to inspire us all.
