Lady Gaga may be a clotheshorse, but that hasn’t stopped her from returning borrowed four-figure frocks shredded and stained.
That’s what happened when the star was lent a Thierry Mugler black dress made of a thick, sheer material for a video shoot about two years ago. When the NYC-based fashion p.r. firm that arranged the loan got the dress back a few weeks later, it was torn — and had what appeared to be the remnants of a “Bad Romance” on it.
“It looked like it had [semen] on it. It was so disgusting. I couldn’t even tell you,” dishes a p.r. girl who worked with the label at the time and saw the damage firsthand.
“We never found out what it [the stain] was, but we paid the $500 dry-cleaning bill.”
Rihanna didn’t chop the Herve Leroux gown she borrowed for her wild 2010 birthday party — complete with midgets and dirty dancing — but she did send the beige frock back so filthy that the publicist didn’t even recognize it.
“It came back literally brown,” says a fashion publicist who worked with the brand at the time. “I don’t know what the hell she did with it.” (Rihanna’s rep did not return a request for comment.)
