Lady Gaga asked to look like a prisoner in her latest music video.
The eccentric singer teamed up with designers Viktor and Rolf for ‘Telephone’ – her duet with Beyonce Knowles – as she wanted them to create her a bespoke costume, which was inspired by spending time behind bars.
As a result, in some scenes in the video Gaga wears a dark grey leopard jersey jumpsuit with a studded bodice decorated with metal chains.
The US fashion house said: ‘Lady Gaga asked us to design a prisoner’s outfit. This is how we imagined Gaga if she was incarcerated. She inspired us and her bodysuit was included in our brand new ‘glamour factory’ collection. It is styled with a huge pile of exaggerated metal chain necklaces.’
As well as her Viktor and Rolf prison outfit, Gaga and Beyonce also wear designs by outlandish designer Jean Charles de Castelbajac – with Beyonce choosing a blue jacket from the spring/summer 2010 collection and Gaga sporting a bespoke dress.
