The House of Gucci red carpet in London was one of high camp and high drama – and Lady Gaga obviously stole the show.
It was anything but a low-key affair at the Odeon Luxe cinema in the capital city’s Leicester Square as a constellation of stars served some aggressively Gucci looks.
The Ridley Scott-directed high-stakes fashion film dives deep into the life of Patrizia Reggiani, the former wife of Maurizio Gucci, heir to Italy’s most famous leather goods brand.
And on Tuesday evening (9 November), Gaga’s MO was very much GG: Gucci and Glamour. As was the rest of the House of Gucci cast, who dialled up the camp as they stepped out in some seriously jaw-dropping garbs.
Here are 10 of the best fashion moments of the House of Gucci premiere.
1. Lady Gaga

Gaga threw on – casually of course – a vibrant violet thigh-split dress cut to showcase her knee-high stockings and towering boots.
The star was photographed wafting the dress, which she accessorised with sheer gloves, silver jewellery and swathes of adoring fans, as she strutted the carpet.
2. Salma Hayek

Salma Hayey plays Giuseppina “Pina” Auriemma in the film and in real life is married to French billionaire and Kering CEO François-Henri Pinault.
Kering is a parent company of Gucci, so surprise surprise, she donned a glowing gold lamé gown by the brand.

Cynthia Erivo wore what can only be described as the comfiest looking red-carpet outfit in recorded human history – a drop-knit blue sweater with a matching skirt and Bottega Veneta bag.
5. Bimini Bon-Boulash

Drag Race UK icon and binary obliterator Bimini Bon-Boulash wore a black one-shoulder velvet dress, towering platform heels and ruched patent leather gloves.
