MANILA, Philippines — Award-winning singer-actress Lady Gaga gave popular DC Comics character Batman a fashion twist at the world premiere of her latest film “Joker: Folie à Deux.”
Lady Gaga hit the Venice Film Festival red carpet wearing a black Dior Haute Couture plunging velvet bodice dress and silk-velvet scallop-like skirt.
Garnering the most attention was the lace avant-garde Philip Treacy horned headpiece from the Irish hat designer’s 2001 fall couture collection.
Completing the look were Tiffany & Co. jewelry, including a spiky platinum and 18-karat yellow gold necklace with diamonds, and platform silk boots.
The singer-actress’ return to the red carpet was even more special as it was her first major public appearance with fiancé Michael Polansky.

Numerous photos showed the entrepreneur holding Lady Gaga’s hand, showing off her large engagement ring, over a month since their engagement was confirmed.
Lady Gaga earlier confessed to being “deeply moved” by the original film, which features an ignored, mocked and mentally ill stand-up comic, Arthur Fleck, played by Joaquin Phoenix, being driven to violence.
“The first film really deeply moved me. I loved it so much,” Lady Gaga told a press conference, calling Phoenix’s performance one that “set the bar extremely high.”
“I think sometimes when stories are told about people that are maybe misunderstood by society, the director gives you a chance… to really take a hard look at that world in a deeper way,” she added. “I felt like when I watched the first film I got to understand something I may not have seen before, that’s why I did this movie.”
