Lady Gaga Offers First Look At Céline’s New Collection

Having Lady Gaga walk around with one of the items from your new collection is the best way to put it on the map. That’s exactly how Hedi Slimane decided to debut the first bag he ever designed for Céline… By putting it in the hands of the pop diva who constantly makes headlines with her bold fashion choices.

Gaga made sure that the paparazzi were given a good look at the sleek black top-handle bag. She was spotted with it on several occasions, and showed the world it can be paired up with everything from an orange bodycon midi dress to a full-length black leather coat.

It’s not a coincidence that the Mother Monster became the first person to be spotted with Slimane’s Céline bag around her wrist. The two visionaries go a way back and Gaga was responsible for debuting several of his creations in the past.

“He gifted her the bag and it’s the first one from his new collection. Lady Gaga always supported Hedi at Saint Laurent. They’re really close friends and they have been since he photographed her for The Fame Monster album cover.” explained Gaga’s stylist Tom Eerebout.

Before he took the reins at Céline, Hedi Slimane served as the creative director for Saint Laurent. His ambition is to remodel the French fashion house from the ground up. We can’t wait to see what he came up with when Céline’s new collection debuts at Paris Fashion Week.
