Today, Lady Gaga — a woman known for her inspired headwear, charming accessories, airport style, and uncanny resemblance to Donatella Versace — turns 28 years old. To celebrate, Gaga plans to transform The Out NYC resort in Times Square into “The G.U.Y. Hotel,” a free exhibition open to the public that will commemorate her latest music video. In the meantime, she’ll be hanging out in New York, wearing creepers, purple sunglasses, and a knee-length white wig. Click though the slideshow for a look back at her style evolution through the years — from the hair bow to the flame bra, all the way back to the quaint time when pop stars still made an effort to cover up their nipples.

Happy Birthday, Lady Gaga!
