Lady Gaga will wear custom designs by Giorgio Armani on her forthcoming Born This Way Ball tour.

The pop icon has worn outfits from the fashion house before and she will collaborate with them again this time around as she heads out on her world tour in support of her latest album.

Grazia magazine revealed earlier this morning (April 19) that Armani confirmed the news and the company has since posted a series of sketches that depict what Gaga will be wearing on stage.

The costumes revealed by Armani are incredibly theatrical - inspired by futuristic visions and music - and come in an array of materials with stunning embellishments.

She will kick off the extensive string of dates on Saturday, April 27 in South Korea and the tour will run until October 6, when it will come to an end in Spain.
