Katie14 4,828 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 We all know how talented and amazing Gaga is. I am sure she still would have become famous without the eccentric looks. But, I wonder if it was her outfits that drastically helped to set her apart from the thousands of creative and wonderful singers and songwriters. Did her outfits help people to remember her and stay interested? I feel like she wouldn't be as famous as she is now if she dressed "normally". How much do you think her outfits and makeup influenced her success and fame? Do you think this was planned by Gaga or her label? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn De Milo 4 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 It definetly help turm me into a fan, as a fashion lover I was excited to see what she was going to wear to her next performance, video, interview etc. and I think it was definetly a contributing factors when she was an up and coming artist, the general public was definetly captivated by them, but at the end I think that while the outfits cought our attention, her talent was what made her a true star Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urban 9 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I think the visuals played a large part into her massive success, however, talent and her catchy music played a larger role. I doubt if someone with no talent wore her outfits they would get as far as she has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodo 313 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 not really i mean, the fame outfits were just typical pop star stuff. She even wore jeans once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runway 27,876 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 they just set her apart from the other basics but it was her music that brought her where she's today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
display name 4,360 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I think fashion definitely made her more relevant. Everybody was talking about her image, as well as her music. Both of those things were essential to her success. If she had given no effort to looking like a goddess, then she would have been like every other peasant who had a few hits.

Bad 32 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 The outfits were a big part of what made her so interesting at the time. Not a lot of pop stars around that time dressed that eccentric before Gaga. I think she would have still been successful without the outfits but probably not the megastar she is today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Gump 1 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 well duh there was there was no one else wearing purple wigs and leotards and heelless shoes down the street at the time. and it helped that she was a good singer compared to the katy's and britney's in pop. she had hits on hits too but it was her videos and outrageous fashion that had people outside of top 40 radio interested in her. without them she'd be just another pop star that can sing and stuff.

Ambrosia 3,775 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I do feel her fashion was exciting, but you need real talent to stick that staying power. I think the outfits initially made people turn their heads and pay attention to the tiny woman with the big talent. Kind of like an advertisement in a store window, you have to get people in the door, and once you do, you wow 'em. I hope she's remembered for her talent and voice, and not so much the outfits though, on down the road. Do not do to others what angers you if done to you by others. -Socrates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
