Lady Gaga fused country fashion and classic glamour in the music video for “Die With a Smile,” her new duet with Bruno Mars, modeling red Roger Vivier pumps as she sang alongside her fellow pop star.
The duo of powerhouse vocalists released the ballad as a single on Aug. 16, revealing a retro-inspired music video alongside it.
On stage, both Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga were dressed in red and blue southern-inspired ensembles. While Mars wore a blue suit and a red shirt with a 70s-style collar, Lady Gaga matched him in a long sleeve blue dress and red tights. Her outfit was also accented with a red scarf and loose red sleeves which created a layered look underneath her dress. Both singers’ outfits featured embroidery resembling stalks of wheat. Additional country details included Bruno Mars’ cowboy hat and Lady Gaga’s beehive hairstyle reminiscent of Dolly Parton.
Fitting in with the color scheme and blending perfectly with her tights, the singer and actress wore Roger Vivier’s Choc Love Vivier Pumps. The shoes were fully enclosed with a sharply pointed toe; the brand offered a variation on the classic pump silhouette with a stiletto heel that curved slightly inward. With a shiny finish, they appeared to be made of satin and offered a sleek shine to her well-coordinated ensemble.
Additional stars to have recently been seen in Roger Vivier include AnnaSophia Robb and Elizabeth Banks, who wore gold and silver heeled sandals, respectively.
Lady Gaga is widely known for her bold and eclectic style, often wearing noteworthy shoes featuring sky-high platforms or unconventional silhouettes. She was recently seen in Paris around the time of her Olympics opening ceremony performance staying upright in her ultra-high Pleaser platform boots, a favored style of the artist.
