As the Asia leg of Lady Gaga's Born This Way Ball officially kicks off on April 27, the fashion-obsessed pop star is looking to turn her costume game up a notch. She's teamed up once again with legendary Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani to produce a collection of over-the-top performance numbers that promise spikes, mirrors, and PVC.

Sketches were revealed on the Telegraph this morning, and it looks like Gaga will be channeling a dominatrix from a futuristic version of Whoville. The custom costumes feature tons of beading and strings dangling about, bound by barely-there structural corsets. Headgear is especially extraterrestrial this time around and feature shapes that would work just as well in the next Alien. The most brilliantly bizarre look by far is Armani's Art Deco meets Picasso design, which includes a jumbled set of life-size guitars tacked onto her body. Naturally, her hat is a keyboard.
