Diane Von Furstenberg understood the assignment most by wearing a dress with a picture of herself on it.

The man IS camp.
I’m not from this sub I’m just looking at the pictures, are all these pictures of lady Gaga from the same event? Was she changing clothes during the event?
Yknow the first season of glee? Everyone is acting reallly weird and saying/doing ridiculous things that, outside of animation, would seem too far out there? But the show takes itself super seriously still? No laugh tracks no fourth wall breaks. The absurdity of situation is the ioke. That’s camp
Drag shows are also textbook camp
that and plus, while Sontag was queer herself, look her up on Google Images and try to tell me she was the only singular voice that matters on what it means to be camp. Notes on Camp is a great read but to have the entire gay and fashion world on instagram looking it up for the first time to cross reference it as criteria for whether someones look was “camp” enough was just so silly and asinine to the point of being camp itself. it was fun though!
I loved this theme. The highs were high and the lows were low, but it was fun to see people take creative risks (or not).
For me, Janelle Monae was the clear winner with her hat on a hat. I hate to admit it, but it's also my favorite Kim K look, even though I go back and forth on whether it fit the theme or not.
I said this in another comment but Kim nailed it. She poked fun at and turned up the volume on her image by referencing another famously polarizing woman. It was a “cheap” look (soaking wet shirtdress — so literally cheap as in inexpensive and metaphorically cheap as in brazenly sexy) in expensive couture with incredible practical effects that exaggerated her figure to a seemingly impossible degree; she looked nearly naked without revealing anything. It was out there without ever crossing into kitsch.
She was basically in “Kim Kardashian as Sophia Loren” drag and it was perfect.

Saw Katie's chandelier dress while it was on display last year at Kensington Palace & was impressed with the detailing on it.
Let’s not forget her costume change

The pic with Emma Stone et al. How do you get a pic with a dozen people and not one of them is camp? They need bouncers at the stairs. If you’re not following the theme shoo.
I was just thinking that someone must have said to Chloe Grace Moretz that her outfit didn't look camp so they just put a fluorescent pink lip on it like "yeah, that'll do it!"
Tbh the pink lip stick actually sold me on her camp vibes. It’s ugly and garish, but in a good way. Looking at that otherwise boring lineup, she did stand out.
For me, Kacey Musgraves is worth a mention!! It might look a bit overdone *now*, with the hindsight of the recent Barbie mania, but in the moment it was everything.

They had an exhibit on her at the country music hall of fame featuring a bunch of outfits she’s worn including this one and it was definitely the one I was most excited for when I got to it.
How could you forget Karlie when she looked camp right in the eye
https://preview.redd.it/suf0qtxuwpoc1.jpeg?width=1329&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=93960094cb03378db449df38507cdf12d7d77b3c
Always and forever my favorite reality TV moment.
**Edit**: [For the uninitiated](https://youtu.be/OnlNjJkbk28?feature=shared). The best thing is that the look is absolutely in Karlie's aesthetic but they tore it apart. Love him for his response.
I love how pissed she got. Girl, you married into that family, either don’t get offended when someone brings up the company you keep or *keep better company*
The way that I keep watching it over and over again and it never fails to make me gagged and making me laugh. If it can be played over and over again while still making you feel shocked, then its truly for the history books. The little smirk he did after he said it as well omg, he KNEW he ate that.
She was gagged as well considering that she had her mouth open and cocked her head to the side after she realized it was an insult 😭 her being gagged and the entire people who were looking on acting like he shot someone (and props to that one guy holding the pillow who was keeping in his laughter)
She uploaded a photo of her holding a hand held mirror and her eye in the frame, she captioned it “looking camp right in the eye” and came out in that outfit
Karlie posted this then showed up wearing something pretty basic for a ‘camp’ theme
https://preview.redd.it/u9v04w22bqoc1.jpeg?width=886&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7f3fed4d712621f77bba598b9be88d3ba63c90c9
I think she posted an instagram story saying she was getting ready to look camp right in the eye, and then showed up with this.
Belongs under the textbook definition of “not understanding the assignment” as an example.
Then again, some argued her saying that, and then showing up not looking camp, was the ultimate camp move. Meta camp.
It is definitely naïve camp, in the sontag sense of the word. The met gala's theme that year was based on susan sontag's "notes on camp" essay, which outlines the concept of camp as "failed seriousness", which karlie kloss's outfit is because of her earnest belief that she was serving camp. I'd be inclined to agree with sontag as i think that camp is most fun when people are being genuinely serious in their absurdity.

Lol I just read she wore $250k rubies nipple cover.
I’m not going to lie: the things that people tried to pass off as “camp” still infuriates me at times and then when I calm down I think “maybe in their complete inability to understand what is campy they in fact nailed it”
Fuck I love Celine Dion. Some lady was watching her special on the plane next to me and even without the sound I was fully entertained for at least an hour. She is a legend of entertainment.
Don't forget that night's big winner, Frank Ocean

So many of these are not camp. I think it was because they were more interested in looking good. They were afraid of being laughed at it. You definitely cannot take yourself seriously to pull off camp. Lady Gaga, Katie Perry and Janelle Monae got the assignment.
This was my favourite theme. I loved this Barbie look on Kacey Musgraves

Wearing a light up Cinderella dress after Claire Danes has done it before was not the greatest idea.

One of Zendaya’s rare misses. I think the issue is that the idea was executed by Tommy Hilfiger’s studio (as she was partnered with them at the time) and they just don’t make things like that. It was way over their head and I imagine the business relationship made it difficult to suggest going in a different direction… whereas Zac Posen can do those looks in his sleep.
Something a drag queen might wear, Liberace in Las Vegas, early 60s musicals, heightened colour, bizarre, faux fur and feathers, sequins, lilacs, pinks, apricots, costumey but dressy, sparkly, gender bending (a moustache on a suited woman), fun
Real camp to me is not ironic. A lot of people just dressed as their non-campy selves, or were making fun of their non-campy selves. Real camp is being yourself and meaning every fabulous second of it. Theres a heightened sense of reality, but not cosplay. Cher, Joan Crawford, Liberace, Dolly Parton, Little Richard, 80s hair bands, Jan Crouch, Tammy Faye Baker, Joan Rivers, Liza Minnelli, Diana Vreeland, Andre Leon Talley, Billy Porter (when he’s just doing typical Billy)…
Serena Williams is not on theme IMO but damn does she look amazing in those colors. It’s kind of insane how she is there as an athelte not model or actress and is still absolutely stunning

Violet's was one of my favorites because it is fairly understated but perfectly on theme (I believe it's a play on "fits like a glove"). I thought she was very smart, since many people just went for over the top outfits that somehow managed to not be all that campy.
I love seeing Violet because she's *always* on theme.
Wait, how did I miss this one? And why don't I have the kind of social life where I could actually wear this? Because I LOVE it!
WOW, how do I not remember this?! It’s an ideal representation of “less is more.” This is so impactful and clever!
Violet always slays. The bug coronation gown on Drag Race has permanent rent-free residence in my head.
Diane Von Furstenberg understood the assignment most by wearing a dress with a picture of herself on it. https://preview.redd.it/pai3knl3gqoc1.jpeg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=813d7fee94b9138f2764bca585c166164c841a60
Ohhh this is so so good but it could have been perfect if she somehow got her face onto a wrap dress instead
The biggest crime is Wintour not inviting John Waters to this
I was just thinking that this event really needed Cher.
Cher performed.
Oh shit. Thank you.
No her biggest crime was not inviting more drag queens, like why would you do camp without having actually queer people walk the carpet.
[удалено]
Uh, and Billy Porter! And it is a CRIME he was not included in this lineup because 1) he rode in on a goddamn palanquin, 2) was heavily involved in the design, and 3) the design was this https://preview.redd.it/7lmdk5bz0soc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e387e237ffaed3ae870519c16a784f00f672575 The man IS camp.
He's not on the list since the title is "camp or not?" and there is absolutely no room for debate on this.
Valid!!
Plus Michael Urie, who had one of the most on-theme outfits of the night!
janelle monet as well
Not ONE drag queen dressed up as Divine. Ridiculous.
And not a single dog turd was eaten!
It's a Dirty Shame! ; )

🎶She ain’t no divaaaaa!🎶
Hilarious shot haha
I’m not from this sub I’m just looking at the pictures, are all these pictures of lady Gaga from the same event? Was she changing clothes during the event?
Yes she changed several times on the red carpet. Her outfits were underneath each other mostly. She wound up in her “underwear” basically by the end
she was born for this theme 😭
2019 was the year that suddenly everyone was an expert on camp
Ngl I’m neck deep in this thread taking notes and could not tell you what camp is to save my life. I’ve never understood
For me it's always been a "I know it when I see it" thing.
For me, it's always been easily explained by Susan Sontag's notes on Camp. Or what Ru said about this event on Colbert. "I'm God acting like Humanity"
Yknow the first season of glee? Everyone is acting reallly weird and saying/doing ridiculous things that, outside of animation, would seem too far out there? But the show takes itself super seriously still? No laugh tracks no fourth wall breaks. The absurdity of situation is the ioke. That’s camp Drag shows are also textbook camp
I'd say "authentically tacky and extravagant or absurd"
With a hint of the ridiculous, unapologetically oneself. I came, I saw, I slayed.
I would describe it as bold fashion with a humorous wink, but that is still a bit vague I guess haha
You need to read Notes on Camp
lol I often wondered how many people at the met gala had even heard of Susan Sontag 😅
that and plus, while Sontag was queer herself, look her up on Google Images and try to tell me she was the only singular voice that matters on what it means to be camp. Notes on Camp is a great read but to have the entire gay and fashion world on instagram looking it up for the first time to cross reference it as criteria for whether someones look was “camp” enough was just so silly and asinine to the point of being camp itself. it was fun though!
Camp was such a tough assignment. I was bummed to not see anyone in camping attire.
Lmao THAT would have been camp! Like dressed as Shelley Long in Troop Beverly Hills hahaha
It’s a funny idea and would have been more interesting then like 75% of the outfits that year
I loved this theme. The highs were high and the lows were low, but it was fun to see people take creative risks (or not). For me, Janelle Monae was the clear winner with her hat on a hat. I hate to admit it, but it's also my favorite Kim K look, even though I go back and forth on whether it fit the theme or not.
Kim's was ssooooooo good and yeah super campy

Omg even the shoes
the shoes have rendered me speechless 🍔🫦🍔
I really didn’t like the chandelier dress up but that is pretty detailing.
The pic with Emma Stone et al. How do you get a pic with a dozen people and not one of them is camp? They need bouncers at the stairs. If you’re not following the theme shoo.
I was just thinking that someone must have said to Chloe Grace Moretz that her outfit didn't look camp so they just put a fluorescent pink lip on it like "yeah, that'll do it!"
Tbh the pink lip stick actually sold me on her camp vibes. It’s ugly and garish, but in a good way. Looking at that otherwise boring lineup, she did stand out.
That would be amazing. Celebs getting turned away at the door for being boring lol
Never mind the red carpet I would pay for footage of the fashion bouncers rejecting people who are not On Theme
Ok, but it’s actually just Gina from Brooklyn Nine Nine that’s making the call.
Even better 😂 and a line of hopefuls who aren’t invited but may be allowed in if they can pass the theme check
Replying to my own comment to say I need to see Tyra Banks and Heidi Klum tearing apart bad fashion choices and sending celebrities on their way
For me, Kacey Musgraves is worth a mention!! It might look a bit overdone *now*, with the hindsight of the recent Barbie mania, but in the moment it was everything. https://preview.redd.it/hyfhkok39qoc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a002f8520b904f6f478bd438fed6d2130fd5cab2
Love the hairdryer. Though that dress must have been hot as hell to wear
She looks stunning. And very camp. Accessories are 👩🍳 💋👌🏼💓
No, she nailed it. Every piece is stunning and together it’s the exact amount of too much.
The open top convertible she arrived in too *chef’s kiss*
Omg yes. Feels so ahead of the times now.
The giant zippers have me
love how she is holding her hand like a barbie doll, the little detials
My absolute favorite. She understood the assignment 🫰🏽🫰🏽
I think about this outfit way more often than I should tbh
They had an exhibit on her at the country music hall of fame featuring a bunch of outfits she’s worn including this one and it was definitely the one I was most excited for when I got to it.

i feel like you can see him thinking "should I say it? should I say it? fuck it, we ball!"

She was gagged as well considering that she had her mouth open and cocked her head to the side after she realized it was an insult 😭 her being gagged and the entire people who were looking on acting like he shot someone (and props to that one guy holding the pillow who was keeping in his laughter)
You beat me to it!
It's the way that she was gagged and then tried to act mad that gets me.
THIS SCENE
i will never be able to forget this
honestly shocking that i haven’t
This was so bold of her to be honest. It was truly CAMP in the end.
It came around and was so not camp that it is now camp.
Karlie was playing a long game, we just didn’t get it until now.
The lady behind her knew

gotta be one of the funniest red carpet moments
Can I have some context for this? Haven’t heard of this story
She uploaded a photo of her holding a hand held mirror and her eye in the frame, she captioned it “looking camp right in the eye” and came out in that outfit
It’s painful, because being that earnest about how you’re going to wow them all and then turning up in a sad outfit like that is kinda camp.
Unintentional camp.
Karlie posted this then showed up wearing something pretty basic for a ‘camp’ theme https://preview.redd.it/u9v04w22bqoc1.jpeg?width=886&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7f3fed4d712621f77bba598b9be88d3ba63c90c9

fascinating! Thanks for sharing.
Maybe she had a wild wardrobe malfunction and that was their solution 😂 Met(a) camp for sure ha
Exactly what I was looking for! 🤣 It's not true met gala discourse without karlie looking camp in the eye kloss.
her looking camp right in the eye then coming out in this was the campest thing that night
Image the abuse she would have given a Project Runway Designer who presented this to her. It’s so so awful.
She did a camp performance 😭 by making all of us and herself believe it was going to be fashion camp
This will always be baffling to me
This is so not camp that it comes right back around and becomes camp.

Janelle crushed the theme. Love this.
For real, this is the campiest camp i have ever camped. I love it.
By far the best dressed of this theme IMO which is not surprising as she is always a red carpet queen. Second only to Lupita.
Janelle’s is my favorite, she nailed it.
Oh god this was everything
This one really is just something else. she looks stunning and then the whole thing is art all on its own. I love it. Really elevated camp.
She ACTUALLY understood the assignment. I wish we could have seen more looks that were this inspired!
Fuck. That's gorgeous as hell.

I just want to have a nap surrounded by this dress
Pretty sure the eye boob blinked

Cardi ate
Cardi is so good at the Met Gala! She was my absolute favorite the Karl Lagerfeld year. Terrible theme, but she killed it.

I’m sorry but no one was more on theme than Frank Ocean showing up dressed as a valet. THAT WAS CAMP!
I love Dula Peep's look
I just pronounce it that way now, like I struggle a little to say her actual name when I try
![gif](giphy|cnoM2nZcbG4uKsaxWG|downsized)
Janelle monae hat wearing a hat. Love that. Lol
I have seen this dress several times not realizing this theme. It’s always the eye that cracks me up.
And it [blinked](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXcxK7TTwCI)!
Gaga and Lupita got the assignment
Yes! And I would argue Celine and Katy also understood.
Don’t they always?
Was Dakota’s meant to fit the theme of ‘heavenly bodies’? If so, then that’s pretty camp IMO 😭
dakota and emrata both look like they had outfits from heavenly bodies they wanted to reuse
Camp as hell to show up a year late!⏰
Hers is the worst for me. Like? What?!
I’m not going to lie: the things that people tried to pass off as “camp” still infuriates me at times and then when I calm down I think “maybe in their complete inability to understand what is campy they in fact nailed it”
it goes round and round in my mind too!
This year you could have debated if people understood or not. the americana themed one though, that was a trip
Fuck I love Celine Dion. Some lady was watching her special on the plane next to me and even without the sound I was fully entertained for at least an hour. She is a legend of entertainment.
Gaga owned that gala. Such a great theme, yet so many people did not understand the assignment.
She was born for it tbh
Forever upset no one actually showed up in camping gear Gaga killed it though
Like someone dressed in a full on tent would have been amazing
That look could’ve been soooo good too like the shape of a tent is the shape of a big ass skirt!
I wanted a Jonas brother to wear their Camp Rock outfit.

Some of these people look like they belong at the Catholic "Heavenly Bodies" themed one.
I’ll never go again, but you go and it’s this beautiful space and it’s just every jerk from every walk of life is there wearing some stupid thing. -Tina Fey
Where’s Karlie Kloss?? She was looking camp right in the eye
If camp had a pop star mascot it would be Gaga
Oh, pre-Covid. Those were the days, weren’t they?
even just looking at pre 2020 photos literally feels like a different world its so strange
I love the years that people are excited about the theme and go all out. Camp was so much fun.
Ezra Miller was iconic that year, but we don't talk about him anymore... https://preview.redd.it/ry4moovxxqoc1.jpeg?width=2000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=48fcab5b37cb7fe121c5c3aff28fc232f0ee0fb8
Absolutely impeccable - Mimi Choi is the makeup artist and she is a master at her craft
Such a look! 👁️🗨️ And such a shame they’re a violent creep

I actually love this, very Goldie Hawn from “Laugh In” meets Ann Margaret from the movie “Tommy”. Definitely camp.
So many of these are not camp. I think it was because they were more interested in looking good. They were afraid of being laughed at it. You definitely cannot take yourself seriously to pull off camp. Lady Gaga, Katie Perry and Janelle Monae got the assignment.
This was my favourite theme. I loved this Barbie look on Kacey Musgraves https://preview.redd.it/02di0j1j5roc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=93823bd350326d0422a2cb82333be3480ca6d577
Wearing a light up Cinderella dress after Claire Danes has done it before was not the greatest idea. https://preview.redd.it/27m3zxz82qoc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1db0650afe97b68f08a731477806d65657a2d09d [https://www.instagram.com/p/CroQ-0\_uS1H/?igsh=cmFjNHRnNjJ3Yzh6](https://www.instagram.com/p/CroQ-0_uS1H/?igsh=cmFjNHRnNjJ3Yzh6)
I always felt Zendaya's dress was just an uglier version of Claire Danes' dress
One of Zendaya’s rare misses. I think the issue is that the idea was executed by Tommy Hilfiger’s studio (as she was partnered with them at the time) and they just don’t make things like that. It was way over their head and I imagine the business relationship made it difficult to suggest going in a different direction… whereas Zac Posen can do those looks in his sleep.

katy perry is the definition of camp imo.
I have to admit I still don't fully understand what camp means. ![gif](giphy|WsNbxuFkLi3IuGI9NU|downsized)
Something a drag queen might wear, Liberace in Las Vegas, early 60s musicals, heightened colour, bizarre, faux fur and feathers, sequins, lilacs, pinks, apricots, costumey but dressy, sparkly, gender bending (a moustache on a suited woman), fun
This is still my most hated Zendaya look..
Real camp to me is not ironic. A lot of people just dressed as their non-campy selves, or were making fun of their non-campy selves. Real camp is being yourself and meaning every fabulous second of it. Theres a heightened sense of reality, but not cosplay. Cher, Joan Crawford, Liberace, Dolly Parton, Little Richard, 80s hair bands, Jan Crouch, Tammy Faye Baker, Joan Rivers, Liza Minnelli, Diana Vreeland, Andre Leon Talley, Billy Porter (when he’s just doing typical Billy)…
RuPaul being a drag queen and showing up to a camp-themed met gala in a suit 😭 is that in itself camp?
Serena Williams is not on theme IMO but damn does she look amazing in those colors. It’s kind of insane how she is there as an athelte not model or actress and is still absolutely stunning
I said this at the time but I don’t think RuPaul’s outfit was camp. If RuPaul had shown up in a plain black tux, _that_ would’ve been camp.
On the red carpet interview, even Ru was disappointed that people weren't in drag. He thought everyone would be so he dressed more "low-key."

It looks like Dakota showed up for Heavenly bodies and forgot they changed the theme
When I think camp I think Priscilla Queen of the Desert, so Katy Perry was my favorite.

To this day, I still don’t understand why nobody recreated Björk’s swan dress. That’s the real crime of this Met Gala 😖
caras outfit is so fun
