Bette Davis 12,742 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Both have worked as stylists for Gaga and launched their own fashion brands. Who has done a better job styling Gaga and whose fashion line do you like better? Nicola Formichetti: Stylist from 2009-2013, fashion line: Nicopanda Brandon Maxwell: stylist from 2013-present, fashion line: Brandon Maxwell Bonus question: who would you rather? Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris2 9,239 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Brandon creates super elegant styles . Nicola creates super awesome styles. Both of them should work with Gaga and make magic happen for LG5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwontell 7,312 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Nicola is definitely more "avant-garde" and Brandon is definitely more elegant...to me Nicola makes clothes that ppl like to look at and Brandon makes clothes ppl like to wear, which means they cater to very different kinds of ppl...I lean towards Brandon's more sober style.. Now, to the real question here, do I wish Brandon would bottom for me? Definitely... ATTENTION: (bad) jokes and sarcasm are still a thing, so don't take everything I say literally. Thank you.

Bette Davis 12,742 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 I thought Nicola was a much better stylist. Everything was innovative, tailored to perfection, polished, matched perfectly. Nothing ever looked "off" to me. I find Brandon's styling can look a little sloppy, boring and I can almost find something that I would fix. Brandon did have a few flawless moments though. I like Brandon's line much better. It is sophisticated, modern, not too crazy but still has playful moments. Nicola's line is like old lady + baby doll + urban.. and I'm not really feeling it. Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet.

Raikou 1,169 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Nicola made Gaga look like an alien being, it will always be him. Brandon is boring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardevoir 9,893 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I always had this thoughts that with Nicola everything was clearly perfect and somehow Iconic, when with Brandon it's sometimes hit or miss. Guess he's just learning. Sugar, spice, and everything nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelseaaaaaa 1,453 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Nicola for Gaga, Brandon for Lady. I think they both understand facets of her look and other facets not so much. We saw during the ARTPOP era Maxwell's struggle with avant-garde/eccentric looks. He had more misses. Similarly, I believe Formichetti only truly excelled when it came to less casual wear. I wish she'd use both respectively. She recently said that Brandon sees her as a feminine woman and has learned to embrace that with him despite preferring a more ambiguously gendered look personally, so, it's obvious he's good at Gaga looking pretty or lovely, but I don't know if he'll be able to serve up iconic looks in any other aspect. I have no problem with her looking beautiful but once Gaga wakes up, he'll have to switch things up and not style her like it's still Oscars season, and as I said, I don't believe that's his strong point. Nicola is naturally more creative and isn't afraid to push boundaries. I also think he has a better grasp on DarkGa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
