    FASHION CREDITS: LADY GAGA FOR V MAGAZINE

Lady Gaga posed with fashion designer Marc Jacobs (who was the creative designer of Louis Vuitton that time) for V Magazine’s New York issue.  

Mr. Magic Eye behind the camera was Mario Testino. Love, love, love!

The shoot was styled by Nicola Formichetti. Gaga’s hair was done by Bob Recine (who created that amazing Lady Liberty-inspired hair crown), make up by Linda Cantello and manicure by Deborah Lippmann.

She landed on the cover wearing the taupe tulle strapless gown with gold sequin-embellished waist bow from Louis Vuitton’s Fall/Winter 2010 collection.

On the runway presented by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as one of the five finale numbers.

Featured in that season’s Christy Turlington, Natalia Vodianova and Karen Elson for Louis Vuitton advertising campaign shot by Steven Meisel. 

Black lace bra by Calvin Klein and Night Makers by Noritaka Tatehana completed Gaga’s V Magazine look.

Painting by Karen Cantello

Karen is an artistic and organizational dynamo.  Who can forget her masterful construction of the ‘Town Well’ that enhanced the staging for Frog Princess or her ‘can do’ attitude as production manager. 

But before she joined act2studioWORKS, Karen was an accomplished artist and continues to work in the field.  Karen’s website is down just at the moment, but we are hoping that it will be up very soon so that you can peruse all her incredible work.  Click here to try.   

Karen has donated a painting entitled ‘Washington Square’ to the Revels silent auction.  I love the vibrant colour and the mood it creates.
