Lady Gaga's [bubble dress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bubble-stool) certainly is unusual, but it's fitting garb for someone so eccentric. The 23-year-old has been seen in everything from [nude body suits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela) to giant hair bows.

With her usually coiffed bangs a little messy, Lady Gaga rocked the frock of bubbles at Boston's [House of Blues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radish-hat) for the T-Mobile Sidekick GRAMMY Celebration Concert.

The Hussein Chalayan dress looked like it was made of giant soap bubbles, and her nude bodysuit beneath made it look as though the clear pods of varying sizes were all she had one, save for her black fishnet stockings.
