Few celebrities have reigned as high-profile style icons quite like Lady Gaga’s career.
The Oscar-winning musician and actress just landed her next movie role in the sequel Joker: Folie a Do alongside Joaquin Phoenix, but has had a long streak of style since she hit the scene in the late 2000s. It followed the trajectory and became known for both. Her over-the-top, classic red carpet look.
At the beginning of her career, Lady Gaga first made an impression with her red carpet style in kitschy outfits like the outfit that catapulted her into the limelight. These include Grammys looks like a celestial-inspired Armani Privé dress in 2010 and when she arrived in her famous egg in 2011.
But the most notable red carpet fashion moment from early on in her career is arguably the infamous “meat dress” she wore at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. Though polarizing in appearance, the look remained in the cultural lexicon for almost 12 years and is one of her hallmarks of the musician’s stylistic heritage.
