Lady Gaga slips into a vampish red dress on the set of House Of Gucci

Lady Gaga slips into a vampish red dress as she prepares to film her latest scenes as ‘black widow’ Patrizia Reggiani on the set of House Of Gucci

The hard work continued on Monday morning as Lady Gaga filmed her latest scenes on the set of forthcoming drama House Of Gucci. 

The singer and actress takes a starring role as ‘black widow’ Patrizia Reggiani, whose marriage, divorce and subsequent plot to murder ex-husband Maurizio Gucci – an air to the celebrated Italian fashion empire – is documented in the new film. 

And she caught the eye in a distinctive red dress while stepping into Reggiani’s designer shoes on location in Rome.

Gaga added to her look with a sweeping faux-fur coat, while red stiletto heels and heavily tinted sunglasses rounded things off. 

Elsewhere Al Pacino  was accompanied by statuesque co-star Mădălina Ghenea while shooting a crowded street scene outside a Gucci store on Rome’s fashionable Via dei Condotti. 

Wearing a pale suit that adequately reflected the film’s 1980s period setting, Pacino, 80, was ready for action as he got into character as the late Aldo Gucci – former Chairman of the legendary Italian fashion house. 

While little is known about Ghenea’s role in Ridley Scott’s new film, the Romanian actress, 33, added a touch of glamour to proceedings as she joined her co-star on set.

The film, which documents Reggiani’s sensational plot to murder her ex-husband, is based on the novel The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed by author Sara Gay Forden.

Reggiani, nicknamed the ‘Black Widow’, was found guilty of paying a hit man €300,000 (£240,000) to murder 46–year–old Maurizio Gucci, an heir to the fashion empire, in 1995.

He had left her for another woman 10 years previously after telling her he was going on a short business trip.

She was also said to be furious her former husband had started seeing other women, and feared her daughters’ $170million inheritance was at risk if he remarried before ordering the hit.

She also wanted more than the $650,000 she had been offered in a divorce settlement, the court heard.
