Lady Gaga never met a spotlight she didn't steal, which was certainly the case at the
2011 CFDA Awards (aka: The Fashion Oscars) last night at New York's Allice Tulley Hall.
While she didn't bring the bling (sigh), she did shine in a studded Thierry Mugler number that unraveled into a sparkling thong (because who doesn't need a sparkling thong?).
Add one Anna Wintour-inspired seafoam bob, red-nailed monster claws and towering platforms, and you've got yourself a style icon in the making.
Which is exactly what the Council of Fashion Designers of America thought when they awarded her with the (aptly titled) Fashion Icon Award, which she accepted with her parents looking on.
And while pop stars were on the minds of the fashion elite, it was heavy metal that made the red carpet sparkle with a huge showing of statement jewelry in solid yellow gold - along with summertime staples like yellow gold hoops.
Turquoise trimmings were also trending - another must-have for summer, as every fashionista worth their debit cards ALL know, dahling.
So. What have we learned? Lady Gaga is keeping the wig industry in business - and there are two essential items you gotta put in heavy rotation for the upcoming summer months: turquoise and
yellow gold sparkle.
