What's more, it was fresh off the runway, having been modelled by Gigi Hadid during the Versace FW23 show in LA last week.
Keeping her beauty look classic and old school, Lady Gaga sported a bright red, matte lipstick and a heavy smoky eye. She wore her blonde hair pulled back in a tight, elaborate braid, serving to emphasise her amazing bone structure and chiselled cheekbones.
