The first time I saw the dreads with that outfit, I was like ****kkk that's bad. But I actually like it now, it transforms the WHOLE look just with the wig change.
I was thinking the other day, it would be really cool if Gaga didn't leave the stage at all the whole show. She could still change wigs and costumes easily. I mean the costume changes are:
Donatella > Fashion!

(could stay on after Donatella ends for the first time and have the dancers put the cloak on during the reprise)
Fashion! > Venus (she could totally change into the Botticelli babe look on stage during that intro)
CLLG > Just Dance (if she added CLLG, she could get changed during it)
Telephone > PARTYNAUSEOUS (she could change during the long Telephone outro and then perform PN in full)
Born This Way > Aura (just get changed near the piano on stage during Jewels N' Drugs)
Then she'd just do the normal Ratchet onstage change and go off after Swine (FOR THE FIRST TIME THROUGH THE WHOLE SHOW - I MEAN, ISN'T THAT COOL?) then return for Gypsy. To have 7 very different looks in one show, and to only go off before the encore is pretty fresh.
