If you're thinking about transforming into Lady Gaga this Halloween, you may want to think twice: the singer is bound to have a host of imitators worldwide on Saturday night. But that's just because Gaga is used to dressing up in the freakish and bizarre on a regular basis, which makes it relatively easy for those of us who don't have bubble-dresses at our disposal to try our hands at her sartorial magic.
The Gaga look is relatively simple: hair, makeup, sunglasses, and bizarro. If you've got the time and resources, head to any party supply store to pick up a blonde wig. For a truly iconic Gaga look, it's best to pick something with blunt bangs and long blonde hair. If you can't find one, fear not - you can always pick up a Marilyn wig or forego the wig altogether, as an insane hair accessory is all you need to send the right message.
Next: sunglasses. It's crucial that they're oversized - the more bizarrely-shaped, the better. But don't use your sunglasses as an excuse to forego fake eyelashes and other makeup fun - Lady Gaga is always completely Done from head to toe. Consider a nude lipstick, or even something in a shocking neon shade.
Another easy piece to add to your Gaga look: gloves. You can pick up a pair of brightly-colored gloves at any Walmart or Target, if you don't think you want to spend too much cash on patent leather glovelettes.
