Considering the time of year, if you spotted Lady Gaga in London wearing this outfit, you might just think it was someone dressed up for [Halloween](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuice-beetlejuice-costumes). But this is another expression of the popstar's outrageous style, which is definitely a little more costume-like than what the average person or celebrity wears on the street.

The [ghostly ensemble](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/york-gin-grey-lady) consisted of a pale dress made from shredded strips of fabric and a headpiece to match. On its own, the dress could have been fairly interesting, but Gaga is known for pushing the limits with her fashion. To complete the look, Gaga wore a [full face of white makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/annabelle-cosmetics), which pushes the ensemble into costume territory. As MTV Style describes, this has her looking just like a "mummified bride."
