Lady Gaga Rocked a Leotard and Insane Platform Heels at the Met Gala

Mother Monster is back

This year’s theme for the Met Gala, “Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology,” seemed tailor-made for the often eccentric Lady Gaga—and the singer delivered on the red carpet.

Going slightly vintage Gaga, she showed up in a Versace jacket that evoked a circuit board, gravity-defying platform heels and shoulder pads and big hair that was more than a little ’80s.

The outfit had both its critics and its fans, but love it or hate it, it’s a welcome shift to see Lady Gaga walking on the wilder side again after more classic looks on the red carpets at the Oscars and Golden Globes this year.
