The Lift- Lady Gaga

I was inspired by an outfit Lady Gaga wore, or rather the lack of an outfit and chose this image to explore the concept that 'sex sells' as does the idea of being 'edgy' and 'different' all of which are used in this 'duct tape bra'. It is through stunts like this that I see Lady Gagas power lies. She is in a way playing it safe- how so? By being over the top! In this attention (not to mention media) grabbing tactic. I explored this through a seemingly simple yet controversial design.

Daria definition of edgy:

"As far as I can make out, edgy occurs when middlebrow, middle-aged profiteers are looking to suck the energy -- not to mention the spending money -- out of the "youth culture." So they come up with this fake concept of seeming to be dangerous when every move they make is the result of market research and a corporate master plan."- Daria 

The inside is a stage and the outside is glass to show  Lady Gagas exposure to the media.
