Frederic Aspiras, Hair Stylist, Los Angeles

Description

This monochrome magazine cover portrait features Lady Gaga posed against a textured dark background for Variety, with hair styling by Frederic Aspiras. She is captured from the chest up, wearing a light-coloured collared shirt with the top buttons undone and her hands lightly grasping the collar. Her blonde hair is styled in a high top knot with face-framing sections, and her expression is direct and intense. The image is graded in a desaturated monochrome tone with soft directional lighting creating gentle shadows across her face and shirt.
