Nicola Formechetti is best known as the creator of Lady Gaga's infamous meat dress, and is showing his first woman's fashion line since becoming the new creative director for Mugler. The new line featured figure-hugging pieces often made from materials not worn as clothing. There was much talk at 2011 Paris fashion week to see what the newly appointed director Nicola Formechetti had in store for the fashion house.
Nicola Formechetti collaborated with several other designers to make the looks. His gal pal Gaga walked down the runway in several looks and at the end of the show, purchased the entire collection.
