Lady Gaga is at her best when she’s doing something bizarre, and this gender-bending editorial for the January 2012 issue of L’Uomo Vogue is no exception. Fashion photographers Inez and Vinoodh captured Lady Gaga in oversized menswear, biomechanic accessories — including a freaky chin-and-neck brace — and partially shorn locks.

Despite the overwhelming masculinity of Lady Gaga’s core fashion in the editorial, a few feminine pieces remain, including a black netted veil, an avant-garde leaf-shaped hat and round oversized sunglasses.

Although L’Uomo Vogue is a men’s fashion magazine, we’ve come to expect cross-dressing and gender ambiguity from Lady Gaga. Check out more photos from the January 2012 editorial below.
