The Bubble Dress of Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga is definitely famous for her singing of a variety of songs that appeal to the public. She is however, famous also for her personality and controversial way of dressing herself in presenting herself to the public. Many know about her name for the way she dresses, as weird as her dresses can be, she has gotten herself into many types of mind boggling dresses, there was even a time she was wearing a meat dress to perform on stage. Now here is another sort of dress that no one would commonly wear on the streets, it goes by the name “the Bubble dress”. Lady Gaga has just gotten herself into this to showcase to the public once again, her controversial personality. 


 Speaking of outrageous, the bubble dress is nothing like any ordinary dress such as formal dresses or cocktail dresses, since it totally strays away from the normal path of fashion. Nevertheless, the dress has many artistic and fashionable aspects to it, the Bubble dress has a completely unique design. It got its name of course, for being a dress made of many bubbles, to give others an impression of wearing many bubbles. No idea how comfortable could that be, but the dress seems to be admired by many of Lady Gaga’s fans.

Some features of the dress include a complex stitching together of bubbles, and surprisingly the bubbles are all colorless. So another piece of clothing would have to be worn internally to complete the entire set of this dress.

No one knows exactly why the singer chose to be dressed in this, but the original idea of the dress seems to have come from a great British designer named Hussein Chalayan. Although this dress had been worn by Lady Gaga to perform her song Paparazzi on 2009, but a dress that looks exactly the same or at least having a great resemblance to this dress actually existed way back in 2007 designed by Hussein Chalayan. The original designer of the dress seemed to have designed the dress due to great creativity and a desire to be different and shocking in hosting fashionable runway shows as compared to the mainstream showcase of common clothing and dresses. The bubble dress was one of his more special attempts at creating a dress that looks pretty different from the vast majority of clothing available on runway shows. 

The bubble dress created by Hussein Chalayan seems to have sparked an inspiration for Lady Gaga to go for such an outfit, as it had always been her way of presenting herself to the public. Lady Gaga has a bold personality that makes her willing to showcase a lot of herself in ways contrary to the norms in society. This pretty much explains the selection of her dress. 
As for the beauty of the dress, it could be seen in light of the original designer’s intention in promoting dresses or outfits that do not look common or dull, it has a great appeal and is unique being a dress of bubbles on its own. In the context of modern society, though this dress be controversial, it could still be viewed as a piece of artwork.
