Lady Gaga For Harper's Bazaar October 2011

If these images of Lady Gaga in October's Harper's Bazaar had surfaced about a month ago, before Lady Gaga's You and I video and before we were introduced to her nymph character, we'd probably choke on our morning coffee and/or Coco Pops. But we got a taste of what Mother Monster looks like au naturel from the music video (and her corresponding fashion films) so we felt fully prepped for seeing a natural Gaga. The good folk at HB have treated us to a few teasers of what we can expect from Lady Gaga in the issue; what do you think?

Not only is she at one with nature in these shots (captured by Inez and Vinoodh), she also embraces a more vintage look in one of the pictures and we have to say we are loving it. No one can accuse Lady Gaga of not being diverse and these pictures more than prove it. Mugler main man and Gaga stylist Nicola Formichetti has once again pulled it out the bag. Snaps for Nicola!

WATCH Lady Gaga's Inez and Vinoodh You and I Vid

Little Monsters if you thought you were just getting a You and I music video, you were sorely mistaken. Mother Monster has treated fans everywhere to FIVE new fashion films to coincide with her newly released single You and I. 

Lady Gaga released the first of the series of videos yesterday; it was entitled Haus of U featuring Nymph and features the singer doing some sexy posing in some barely there attire. It sounds quite raunchy when you put it like that, but actually it's quite tame compared to what we usually see with Gaga - she is sporting a natural look make-up-wise and we like it! 

If you're wondering about the name of the video or if there's a deeper meaning, let us explain: Gaga is expanding on the nymph character portrayed in her original You and I video - you may remember her playing a piano while alter ego Jo Calderone was sitting on top of it? See, it's all coming back to you now!


We like what we see - looking forward to the second and indeed the rest of the fashion films - all shot by dynamic fashion photography duo Inez and Vinoodh. We could easily get used to a fresh faced Gagaloo but we won't count on it being a permanent look for Mother Monster. 

Let's hope this distracts Gaga and her fans alike of the recent Cathy Horyn drama. (Fashion critic Cathy made a slight Gaga criticism which caused the Lady to hit back…full story here)
