Background
"Fashion of His Love" was one of the very first songs Gaga wrote for the album. Prior to the release, Gaga revealed that the song serves as a tribute to the late Alexander McQueen and was written after his death.
The bridge of the song is taken from the chorus of an unreleased song Gaga wrote with Space Cowboy titled "Earthquake".

Lyrics
I never was the kind of girl,
That's naturally sure,
When it comes to love,
Oh no, I was insecure,
Insecure.
But when it comes to you and me,
I can't deny this feeling inside,
Oh no, I never felt like this before,
This before. (This before, no, no, no)
I'm seeing all the signs from above,
I'm going to be the one that he loves,
I was made for loving him
The fashion of his love.
Oh yeah.
I'm gonna be his first and last kiss,
'Cause baby I was born to be his,
I was made for loving him
The Fashion of His Love. (I love you).
You know that I'd never cheat on a man,
'Cause I'm not like that,
I'm physically crafted to be,
As fitting as McQueen.
But when it comes to clothing I'm bad,
I'm fashionably just designed to be grand,
Oh and he's, no accessory to me,
To me
No-no-no!
No, I just can't seem to forget you,
No I can't for just as long as I met you,
You're my babe right through,
I was made for you. (I was made for you)
I'm seeing all the signs from above,
I'm going to be the one that he loves,
I was made for loving him
The fashion of his love.
Oh yeah.
I'm gonna be his first and last kiss,
'Cause baby I was born to be his,
I was made for loving him
The fashion of his love.
They say I need a strong man,
Not just a friend,
But baby my search is done.
No longer reason to cry or to justify,
How I feel for you, my love.
I'm seeing all the signs from above,
I'm going to be the one that he loves,
I was made for loving him.
Oh yeah.
I'm seeing all the signs from above,
I'm going to be the one that he loves,
I was made for loving him
The fashion of his love.
Oh yeah.
I'm gonna be his first and last kiss,
'Cause baby I was born to be his,
I was made for loving him
The fashion of his love.
Oh yeah.
I'm gonna be his first and last kiss,
'Cause baby I was born to be his,
I was made for loving him
The fashion of his love,
Oh yeah.
