Lady Gaga strutted her stuff for the first time today in Thierry Mugler's Autumn 2011 Womenswear show and it seems that media and fashion outlets abroad have unequivocally praised her ability to not only blend in with the 6 ft size 0 girls, but outstrut and outshine them
(They also had positive things to say about the song as well). If you wanna check it out look at the video which will be posted in the second post
But, gorgeous as the models were (including Coco Rocha and Jessica Stam in tribal makeup), they weren't the supermodels of yore. So when Formichetti sent them "vogue-ing" down the runway, '80s-style, not only did they occasionally look pained, a few of them actually stumbled.
Gaga, on the other hand, took to the modeling gig like she'd been doing it all her life, stepping onto the runway from the front of the house, puffing on a cigarette and grinding on a column, as her new single, "Government Hooker," played on the soundtrack.
The claw-like shoes were so high that some of the models stumbled but Lady Gaga, herself in impossibly high wedges, negotiated the theatrical catwalk with expertise, managing to dance as the sound system pumped out her new song Government Hooker.
She didn’t need a meat dress or futuristic egg to grab attention at the Thierry Mugler fashion show in Paris Wednesday night: Lady Gaga worked the catwalk with confidence and sex appeal. Hitting the runway in a sheer black minidress, sporting long blond pigtails, the pop star was greeted by cheers from the stylish crowd, which included Vogue editor Anna Wintour.
To the beat of her new track, Government Hooker, Gaga took to the maze of gothic cathedral arches with a cigarette in her mouth, as models struggled to stay upright in perilous platforms. We'll give it to her, she strutted like a pro, making two properly dramatic appearances throughout the run.
Most of the buzz surrounding the event was the suspected, then inevitable, appearance of Formichetti’s long-time collaborator Lady Gaga. Before the show...the Lady herself conferring with Formichetti saying, “I want them to see me walk and say ‘She’s a Mugler woman.’” While walk she did, and well, considering the shoes proved too much for a few of the models, she did not embody the Mugler woman. Starting off well with an installation-like debut smoking a cigarette and slinking around the pillars, her final walk that involved hip thrusting and overzealous scarf whipping was all Gaga and all performance.
