Taking fashion tips from Britney? Lady Gaga wears a jewel-encrusted, sheer bodysuit over a black bra and thong

Britney Spears made a statement in a nude colour bodysuit in her video for Toxic, and now Lady Gaga is following in her fashion footsteps.

The popstar wore a black version, which showed off a lot more skin than Britney's, exposing Gaga's black bra and thong underneath.

With jewels glimmering across her entire body, it looked like the eccentric Lady the world loves was back on quirky form.

Showing off the fantastic results of her recent tone up following her recovery from a hip injury, Gaga was clearly proud of her curvy figure but the jewels seemed to leave a lasting impression on her derriere.

Red marks were visible on her posterior as she left the Chateau Marmont on Sunday night, no doubt a user hazard of wearing such a provocative outfit.

And while the Lady gave Dr. Frank-N-Furter a run for his/her money, the popstar's actor boyfriend, Taylor Kinney, was channeling more of a trucker style in a baseball cap, hoody and baggy jeans.

Earlier in the day, the 27-year-old pop star looked jsut as provocative, sauntering along to a gay bar in West Hollywood, California wearing just a black lace bra, frayed black shorts and knee-high black boots.

The Born This Way singer let her long dark hair fall onto her right shoulder as she left The Abbey club.

Gaga popped into the longtime gay hotspot and went unrecognized as she listened to one of her new singles from her upcoming album ARTPOP. Summer look: Lady Gaga beat the summer heat on Sunday wearing just a black lace bra and fraying black shorts to a gay bar in West Hollywood, California

Gaga only stayed for about 10 minutes before making her way out in her head-turning racy outfit.

The first official single from ARTPOP will be Applause and has been set for release on August 19.

Gaga tried to get fans excited by tweeting an image of herself with her cute fuzzy dog Fozzi as they counted down the days until the new single.
