The sartorial practice is hardly novel.

The torso, meanwhile, played with a cheugy print: harlequin.

The diamond pattern was named after the go-to print of those in the clown biz.

Bonus points that it was also a nod to her characters name.

Her wardrobe choice featured patchwork-style diamonds in muted pinks and greens.

Leaning further into the jester motif, she wore lacy white stockings and pointe-toe-inspired ballet heels.

Her Other Circus Nods

Her press tour has already been a series of harlequin-inspired looks.

Last week, at a fan event in London, Gaga wore a striped mini-dress with similarly puffy sleeves.

Going the maximalist, print-on-print route, she paired it with black-and-cream harlequin tights.

That same day, she changed into another look bearing the cheugy print.

Only Gaga can pull this off.
