Gaga on the front and back covers of the new CR Fashion Book. Shot by legendary photographer Bruce Weber and styled by Carine Roitfeld, the images were published completely unretouched.
“I wanted to show her completely natural, all herself,” CR Fashion Book’s founder Carine Roitfeld told Style.com. “During the shoot, she gave me her diamond engagement ring to keep safe. I wore it the whole day next to my own diamond ring that my grandmother gave me. I felt like it was a big sign of trust between the two of us—and quite an expensive moment!”
Lady Gaga graces both the front and back covers of the ‘Classic Eccentric’-themed issue. “Lady Gaga perfectly represents what I mean by the classic eccentric to me,” Roitfeld added. “She is completely Gaga, but she is also a lady. In her music and art, she is so creative, always pushing the envelope"She continued: “She is actually a bride on both covers. One is the classic bride in white, the other is the eccentric bride who chooses to wear black. I decided to style her in that way for two reasons: The obvious one, of course, is that she is getting married soon, but also it represents how in this new era in her career, how she has come to marry these different sides of herself—how she has become free.” (x)
