Tom Ford, in taking an innovative approach to introducing his Spring/Summer 2016 campaign, made sure to include Lady Gaga. The “Born This Way” singer not only models, but further has a track she recorded with Nile Rodgers included.
“Instead of having a traditional show this season, I decided to try something new,” Ford told WWD. “I wanted to think about how to present a collection in a cinematic way that was designed from its inception to be presented online.”
The designer also tweeted on Oct. 2 about his video, which included a 16-second clip of the pop star:
Vanity Fair pointed out the track is a cover of Chic’s “I Want Your Love.” Gaga is reportedly working on a fifth album, potentially titled LG5, according to MTV News, although there’s no confirmation whether this cover will be included or is simply a track to keep the singer in the spotlight. See Ford’s presentation and hear the track in the video below:
2015 has marked a career resurgence for Lady Gaga, who has remained relatively low key for the past couple of years. ARTPOP might have not been the success she hoped it to be, but this past month, she showed off her acting chops in American Horror Story: Hotel and introduced another new track, “Til It Happens to You,” in a rape awareness video.
