She's made it no secret that she is a fan of Ancient Greek mythologies, architecture and art.
So
paying homage, Lady Gaga dressed as a caryatid on Friday afternoon in
Athens as she headed to the Olympic Stadium for a performance as part of
her tour, ArtRave: The Artpop Ball.
Emerging from her hotel, the 28-year-old looked angelic in a white gown and a jeweled headdress.

Putting
her twist on the sculpted female figure, Gaga's entablature was made up
of three large silver skulls topped with one faux diamond, pearls and
five crystals.
Similar
to the statues, which are used throughout Greek architecture in the
place of columns or pillars, the Born This Way singer wore her blonde
locks down in a braid while slipping into a sheer flowing layered
chiffon gown.
Somewhat
opting for simple make-up, the charttopper highlighted her eyes with
brown eyeliner and coated her lips with a nude shade of gloss.
Taking
to her Instagram account to share her look, the singer posted two
pictures of her outfit and in one she appeared to be holding an indigo
bowling bowl.
Excited
to get on the stage, one of her captions read: 'Like many who inspired
and came before us, tonight we put ART in the front'.

Earlier
this week, Gaga became overwhelmed with the success of her career so
far and sent out several heartfelt tweets to her followers on the
micro-blogging site.
She
wrote: 'Spent a lot of time crying today, happy tears, but many. I
can't believe my life. Being able to buy nice things, travel, it's
overwhelming.
'Some
days it hits me so hard, reality, I can't express my gratitude enough
to monsters+team for believing in me. U changed my families life.
'I
hope with my music, shows, and message I can share with you all these
blessings though the beauty of art. Love, a very humbled Lady.'
