Update, 10/3: As Countess Elizabeth on the upcoming season of American Horror Story, Lady Gaga is sure to steal the show—not only with her sick, twisted performance (as we've seen in previous trailers, she oversees a group of bloodthirsty vampiric schoolchildren), but with her character's incredible love of couture.

In a new interview with Refinery29, the series' costume designer, Lou Eyrich, talks about Elizabeth's addiction to all things designer and how Gaga's personal style influenced her fashion choices.

"We wanted her to be very elegant, sexy, seductive, mysterious, and unexpected as well. Since she's so fashion-forward, the first thing I did was look at the most recent runway shows," she tells the site. "Then, to give her that aura of timelessness, I went through archives of my favorite designers — a lot of Thierry Mugler and Yves Saint Laurent, Vivienne Westwood — and Old Hollywood costumers, like Adrian [Greenberg] from the '40s. A lot of web surfing, a lot of vintage couture shopping. I didn't do much research of other vampire movies because I didn't want to be influenced by them."

And if you're a true Little Monster, be on the lookout for a very recognizable item from the singer's own wardrobe to pop up on screen. "Well, Gaga was so generous and offered to bring pieces in from her own personal archive," Eyrich adds. "So let's just say that her fans are going to get a big treat when they see something that I'm not going to give away!"

Could that "something" be the meat dress?

Update, 9/30: The first scene from American Horror Story: Hotel aired on FOX last night. Though Lady Gaga doesn't make an appearance, it's still worth a watch. See it below.

Update, 9/3: Lady Gaga's American Horror Story: Hotel character, The Countess, is in for a wild season on the show. After visiting the AHS set, Entertainment Weekly revealed that Gaga will co-star with Matt Bomer in a graphic foursome sex scene. Director Ryan Murphy discussed the singer's openness to filming the wild scene:

"She's the only actress I think I've worked with who wanted to do more explicit stuff than was written. You write a foursome for her and you expect a lot of questions. She never did that. She showed up and she was wearing diamond pasties, a Band-Aid on her hoo-ha, heels, and a black veil that Alexander McQueen made for her on the day before his death. Then the crew gasped in delight and we were off!"

Gaga is proving to be quite a lively addition to the AHS set, EW adds, stating that John Travolta stopped by to watch the singer film a scene. Adding to the fun energy, Gaga shares stories in between her scenes about everything from her love of the Real Housewives to her celebrity friends—right now she's even babysitting Cher's horse.
