Mother Monster-Inspired Editorials

The Before the Flood Faint Photoshoot is Inspired by Lady Gaga

— April 26, 2012 — Pop Culture
The ‘Before the Flood’ Faint editorial is one of many inspired by the Mother Monster herself, Lady Gaga. LMA Agency model Yana Vilkina stars in the darkly depicted shoot, sporting looks of Monster Ball proportions.

Lady G has had quite the style evolution over the past few years, shifting from extremely costume-y looks and Ray Bans to the achingly glamorous, oh-so-haute looks she's sporting now. To pay homage to this, makeup artist Elena Krygina literally paints a picture of pure imagination on Vilkina, complementing a wardrobe of avant-garde pieces from innovative label Homo Consommatus.

Some of the signature Gaga looks seen in the shoot include sky-scraping, back-breaking platforms, platinum and silver hair and of course, tons of black and leather. Top these pieces off with some killer confidence and suddenly, Mother Monster's look seems a bit more wearable...maybe.
Trend Themes
