Lady Gaga Santa’s Workshop Kicks Off this November at Barneys

Lady Gaga is about to reinterpret Santa’s workshop and put it on display come Christmas season at Barneys.

Yes folks, the radical popstar will get an entire floor at Barneys and take over the shop’s window for her Gaga “makeover” of the Christmas display.

Starting mid-November, the windows of the retailer’s flagship Madison Avenue store will have a Gaga-Christmas feel to it featuring a collection of Gaga’s Workshop gift items that will raise money for charity.

According to Barneys CEO Mark Lee, the campaign visuals will include the cartoon version of Lady Gaga with long blue hair and a sparkly red jumpsuit. The visuals will be seen on shopping bags and other packaging, and also on the company’s official website.
