First it was Margot Robbie, summering in Ibiza in a sheer black maxi dress with beachy accessories. Then the fearless Kylie Jenner in leathers and latex, and Jenna Ortega’s entire press tour for Wednesday, in which she’s revelled across the spectrum of gothic glamour.
Of course, the trend for all-black this summer has found a fan in Lady Gaga. The musician is back in New York for her sold-out set of Mayhem Ball shows at Madison Square Gardens, and returned to a favorite celebrity haunt, Corner Store, for dinner with her fiancé Michael Polansky. Gaga wore a cropped Balenciaga blazer with boxy, structured shoulders and a raw hem, wwhich she wore over a clingy Norma Kamali black catsuit.
She accessorized with the towering Balenciaga “Camden” boots with a sleek, angular platform, as well as a pair of goggle-like sunglasses from Port Tanger, and a mini Kelly bag by Hermès.

The off-duty but elevated look is in keeping with Lady Gaga’s current style lexicon, a longtime lover of Balenciaga’s raw tailoring and sculptural boots. (Of recent, she’s also been spotted with another accessory-du-jour, the Lababu, as a charm on her bag). Onstage, too, the final act of the Mayhem Ball sees Gaga lean into the more gothic elements of her style. She’s pulled latex pieces by Japanese-born, London-based designer Atsuko Kudo, and looked to British designer Gareth Pugh for archival leather biker jackets, a custom Tom Knight “Born This Way” jacket, and a custom State Fair patchwork leather waistcoat emblazoned with Mayhem details. (Shout out to La Maison Gaga for doing the work for the little monsters).
Gaga was also wearing her engagement ring. Designed by Sofia Jewelry, the ring features an oval-cut stone set on an 18-karat rose and white gold diamond pavé band, with pink ombré diamonds and a hidden white diamond halo.
With a slew of NYC dates, expect more shots of Gaga in all her gothy leathers and latex out and about, on and offstage—after all, it’s a Mother Monster summer.
