Lady Gaga has reportedly bought a designer dress by the late Alexander McQueen for a record amount at auction.
Acoording to reports, Gaga splashed out £85, 250 for the McQueen ivory silk gown, known as The Girl Who Lived In The Tree, during an auction held by Daphne Guiness in London this week. This is the highest ever price ever paid for one of McQueen's designs.
Gaga made the winning bid for the dress at Christie's via telephone, outbidding her nearest rivals with the huge figure.
Daphne Guinness said of Gaga's charitable actions: "I'm overwhelmed by how many bidders took part ... and I'm particularly moved by Lady Gaga's support for the foundation. I like her very much, and it's lovely to see the nascent beginnings of something that may help other people."
The charity auction raised around £467,800 for the Isabella Blow Foundation.
