Once again Lady Gaga has lit up the internet with her fashion choice, but this outfit is a far cry from a meat dress – so what’s all the fuss about? For Elle Magazine’s 25th Women in Hollywood event, held in Los Angeles, Gaga showed up in a more than oversized, Marc Jacobs suit with her hair in a simple low bun and as per usual, the look represented a powerful statement.
During her speech, she explained that after trying on 10 or so dresses the suit caught her eye “buried quietly in the corner” and brought her to tears. She explained that at 19 she was sexually assaulted by someone in the entertainment industry and by wearing this suit she was taking her power back, “In this suit, I felt the truth of who I am well up in my gut.”

Twitter turned the outfit into memes and compared her to NBA player’s off-court suits. If we had to take a guess Gaga could care less what these people think.
