Lady Gaga Strips Down For Harper's Bazaar's October Issue (PHOTOS)

A few days ago, we saw Lady Gaga go au naturel for her "You And I" fashion-film series, and we liked her fresh-faced new look.

Now more images from the shoot by Dutch fashion photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin can be seen in Harper's Bazaar's October issue.

In the cover story, Gaga discusses her affinity for designers like Thierry Mugler and Hussein Chalayan and proclaims that without the late Alexander McQueen's creations, "I'd be naked."

(In her last Bazaar cover story, she revealed that McQueen had been working "through her", which we take to mean... well, we're not really sure what that means ).

Turns out stripping down for the shoot, in which she sports only a skimpy slip, has always come natural. "Even when I was a kid, I used to run around naked with the babysitter, driving her crazy," Gaga reveals to the mag.

And the Lady says she was similarly carefree when she and friends plundered the Versace archive in Milan a few months back:

"We were all running around this warehouse laughing and putting on jackets and shoes. We started crying at one point. I've been dreaming of seeing those outfits my whole life."

Though some of her Versace acquisitions -- particularly a certain black harness -- proved controversial, we'd be pretty excited to have access to vintage Gianni creations too.

From the pictures I see here she's a nice looking young lady. I don't know a whole lot about her music but from everything I've heard she's making a pretty good living doing what she's doing. More power to her I say. She's got something going for her, that's for sure.

To Savine:
I complimented her look and said I would hit it. That's not good enough for you? She is an entertainer. That's it. She certainly is no Britney Spears. (Didn't realize I could type while laughing that hard.) Sounds like your world revolves around her. Try to add something else now and then.

Wow I love that you make up all that up out of nothing. My world revolves around no one. And "hit it"? Yeah girls love that. Uber romantic. No Britney Spears? LOL. Um- ok.

"Try to add something else now and then"? I love how you try and insult me when I did not insult you. And what I "added" perfectly sufficed. My astute observation. You are assuming falsities about me b/c you could not think of an intelligent reply. So you went for the cheap shot.

She is a perfect fit for the Herpes Bazaar cover.

She looks fake, the natural look is just less make up and lighting tricks.

Gaga looks pretty good in these photos. It's a shame that she has the talent of a flea dip.

Then you don't know talent when you see it.......

Totally agree!

Whenever I had thought about her which luckily isn't often, I have seen her as a cheap knockoff of another talentless singer, Madonna. Neither are singers, they are entertainers and there are far better singers out there who get little to no press but deserve it more. That being said I am very impressed with these photos. She has a natural beauty and sensuality that is rarely seen anymore. Glad she was daring enough to take these and take her "career" in another direction.

??? Gaga is very talented. And not a knock off. It's only natural to be inspired by your predecessors but she is no copycat. Her career is constantly being taken in different directions. This is just another "look" of hers - not some drastic diversion from her career and artistry.

She has more talent in her little finger than that cougar Madonna.

Homely, but talented. I'd rather listed to homely and talented than all the talentless Disney has beens out there.

What I'm trying to say is that this woman makes millions of people happy with her music. The day we will be able to do the same thing and look, probably much better than most of those who critic her appearance, we, they will have a legitimate right to have a thing, conveniently negative to say about her.

I came back to see that nothing could have changed in a hour. We still have those who are so spontaneously negative about what ever she does or is around.
Often those people doesn't end there, their need to criticize negatively. Everyone, especially if you are a public face, have a problem that annoyed them.
If I drop "Obama," they will have an encyclopedia of critics against him. SEE!!!
I'm amused and annoyed that most of them express their negative feeling that is often addressed to themselves.
Small mind talk about others. Average mind talk about themselves and great minds talk about ideas.

Most of us are small, average and great but them....hmmm...
