Lady Gaga, The Simpsons

I don't know what the world is like without The Simpsons. That's not some cheap ploy to position myself as the biggest Simpsons fan ever; it's just the truth. Homer, Marge, Lisa, Bart, and Maggie have been an integral part of pop culture as I know it since before my spongey baby brain could even make memories. Since its inception on The Tracey Ullman show, I've seen the Simpsons world and the fashion community intersect a few times, but over the past 25 years, never before has it been quite like this. Lady Gaga's major feature guest starring in Sunday night's Season 23 finale (May 20, 8 p.m. EST on FOX, like you didn't already know) is already a huge deal (umm, HAI, an entire episode dedicated to your visit to Springfield? #bucketlist), but as soon as we caught wind of her 18 different episode outfits, we knew we had to beg someone from the Simpsons camp to talk to us about this ASAP. Thankfully, legendary writer/producer extraordinaire (and all-around smart, funny dude) Al Jean answered our pleas and gave us the scoop on the hotly anticipated episode and all its animated fashions.

D'OH. It looks like The Simpsons have made their way into the style scene! Illustrator aleXsandro Palombo transformed some of our fashion faves into Simpsons characters and, um, we're DYING over these. We had to share this image of Anna Wintour looking as orange-y as ever in a tight, long-sleeved black dress sporting her signature bob and always-on sunglasses. (Cue Corey Hart's "Sunglasses At Night" music video.) If we could see her feet, we bet she'd be sporting those cross-strap nude Manolo Blahnik heels! And, awww—look at Karl Lagerfeld as Homer Simpson. We rarely see Chanel's creative director in anything but a black suit, crisp white shirt and black tie. He, too, NEVER takes off his sunglasses—even moreso than Anna. Honestly, we've only seen Uncle Karl without glasses like, once or twice, and he looks a bajillion times less intimidating. Guess that's why he always keeps those suckers on! (Cue Corey Hart's "Sunglasses At Night" music video AGAIN.) Homer, er, Karl's white hair is slicked back into a sleek pony per usual, and even though we can't peep his hands, we're guessing he's sporting some fingerless black gloves. Oh, and don't worry, that protruding tummy is ALL Homer.
