We should’ve seen this one coming — Lady Gaga is the first celebrity to step out in Hedi Slimane‘s first collection for Saint Laurent since the show walked in Paris last week.

The pop star already took to Twitter to voice her support for the designer, calling him “a true punk visionary.” But outfits speak louder than words, and we have confirmed that yesterday she donned a full ensemble from the collection: a black, sequined jacket paired with a ruffled blouse and billowing maxi skirt. The hat, it should be noted, was not one of the runway pieces. We imagine those don’t travel so well, anyways.

And where did Mother Monster go in such an outfit? Why, to have dinner with someone who has stirred up more controversy than Gaga and Slimane combined: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who is biding his time in the Ecuadorian Embassy to avoid extradition for alleged sex crimes. What a meal that must have been.
