    Lady Gaga's Fashion Collaborator Hints At New Projects

    Lady Gaga's latest fashion collaborator, brutalist inspired emerging designer Selva, revealed the inspiration behind her Chromatica Ball premiere outfit and hinted at possible new projects in the future.

    Cristian "Selva" Huygens, Argentinian designer living in Berlin, Germany, shared in a recent interview how he was contacted by the Haus of Gaga and how he constructed Lady Gaga's breathtaking outfit from her newest concert special premiere in LA last week.

    He explained how the collaboration came to fruition:

    "Gaga's stylist, Nicola Formichetti, called me and told me 'I saw your profile on Instagram' and I was amazed. (...) That same day I started to show him my pieces and (...) the next day he called me telling me that they had introduced him a folder for Lady Gaga with designs from Balenciaga, Gucci, Alexander McQueen and any brand you can imagine, and she chose Selva without hesitation! It was perfect because she was looking for something semi-industrial and brutalist, and ours was a match. It was also a matter of luck, right?, because at another time she looked for other styles, but now she was looking for this and she didn't care that I am not a high-end designer, that I am an emerging one."

    The young designer received that call just five days before the premiere of the Chromatica Ball film in LA, so he had to be quick:

    "I immediately started putting together everything I had done before from scratch. I usually find the parts I use on the street, but that same day I spent two hours walking around the city and couldn't find anything, so I decided it was time to go to a salvage yard. (...) The owner of the junkyard didn't believe me either when I told him that the part I was looking for was for Lady Gaga's dress. He died laughing. But for fifty euros he gave me the Mercedes Benz part and I took it on my bike."

    He explained how he crafted the outfit in a matter of days, having to ship it instead of going to LA himself:

    "I went back to the studio and started putting together the entire structure plus the dress plus some pieces that are going to appear very soon in a shooting that is to come...  In just two days I did everything again and the stylist told me 'you're coming to Los Angeles and you bring it to me in person because I don't want to risk it not arriving', and I responded that I didn't have a VISA."

    Asked about the future collaboration with the Haus and Gaga herself, he hinted at possible new projects, staying vague about the specifics, despite initial reports that he announced a new Gaga album which turned out to be fake, explaining that:

    "We are already working on other projects, which I can't say much about, but yes. We build a relationship and more things come with it. Something like that. I mean, I got offers from other big celebrities and I had to say no because she wants exclusivity. Imagine! Obviously I was not in a position to say no. So we're working on things in the future (...) I got offers from other big celebrities and I had to say no because she wants exclusivity."
