Thierry Mugler

MUGLER, formerly known as Thierry Mugler, is a fashion house created by Thierry Mugler in 1975. When Nicola Formichetti became the creative director, the brand became simply known as Mugler with a new logo; since 2013, the new creative director is David Koma. Mugler's creations are mainly seen in the music videos for "Paparazzi", "Telephone" and "Born This Way". He was also the main inspiration for the origami dress, which was been used for The Monster Ball Tour.

Creative director

In 2010, Lady Gaga wrote a piece on what she thinks of her personal stylist, Nicola Formichetti’s, new position as creative director of MUGLER.

Blood pumps through Nicola’s veins like perfume and cigarettes. His brain throbs with misfit royalty, glamour as punk survival, attitude as liberation, style as revolution. THIERRY MUGLER has a way with legendary lifestyle and Nicola is just that: Epic Lifestyle, Freakdom, Gorgeous or Die, The “fuck” in future poetry, the street in High-Fashion. Nicola Formichetti is Fashion’s Freedom. I love him, my friend the genius, my collaborator, more than any piece of clothing or closet I possess. But don’t tell him I said that, he’ll die. He picked them all out.

—Lady Gaga

Music

Lady Gaga asked DJ White Shadow to make the megamix for the show. Nicola wanted to include "Born This Way", as the meaning of the song was perfect for the show. Gaga was a bit reluctant as the song was already "mainstream".
