If you had any doubt about Lady Gaga’s meat outfit at the 2010 MTV VMAs, the answer is yes, everything from the hat to the dress to the shoes to the clutch, was made of real, 100% from-an-animal meat.

Franc Fernandez, the Argentinian designer of this, um, imaginative dress told MTV in an interview that his creation was made from a meat called “matambre”.

He’s not sure what it translates to in English but he swears that it was a very clean, sweet-smelling, non-bloody type of meat based on his experience of draping, sewing and putting the dress together in two days.

He also says Lady Gaga told him that it was very comfortable and it didn’t stick, run, or leave a bloody trail at all the whole time she was wearing it at the VMAs. However, the popular entertainer is of course used to wearing wild and crazy shoes.

Curious to find out more about this dress like if it was heavy, how it felt on Lady Gaga or if it will “go bad”?
