In a field of
ten supremely best-dressed contenders that included a
Gossip Girl and the First Lady, one Lady stood out, proving that risk-taking can win the popular vote. In a landslide,
Lady Gaga received 42 percent of the final results to take Best Dressed of the Year (beating out closest runner-up
Blake Lively by 24 percent). Lady Gaga dressed up—way, way up—in lipstick-red latex to shake hands with the Queen, and as a sequin-suspendered Larry King to be interviewed by, well,
Larry King. She turned heads in towering headdresses; she wore a hat made of her own hair, a metal bikini at the beach, and, in a look that managed to be both rare
and well-done, a dress made of raw meat. Her sense of style thwarted the predictable—it was theatrically avant-garde and wildly, irreverently witty, returning a much-needed sense of humor and unbridled imagination to fashion.
