Leave it to Lady Gaga to bring some serious sparkle to Super Bowl Sunday. The popstar’s vibe at this evening’s halftime show was that of a cosmic girl made earthbound—complete with a spectacular from-the-roof swan dive.
It was a jaw-dropping aesthetic achieved through facial jewelry reminiscent of recent fashion runways. Recalling the high-impact cultishly cool embellishments worn by models at Givenchy, Dion Lee, and Undercover over the past few seasons, the pop star s oversize flashing crystal cat eyes held their own on the field—and brought the light-catching trend to a new crossover audience.
Gaga began the show with glittering jewels that arced from brow to lash lines—but by mid-set, the singer had traded in her spangled gaze for a haze of glittering pink eyeshadow. The not-so-sub subtext? 2017 may just be the year of the shimmering selfie.
