The theme for this year’s Met Gala that took place last night in New York was Camp: Notes to Fashion and had nothing to do with fire and tents.

But rather it celebrated the love for extravaganza and exaggeration.

Carried by shirtless men, Pose actor Billy Porter made a dramatic entrance by channeling an Egyptian pharaoh in a gold robe and bodysuit by The Blonds.

Lady Gaga is back ‘Little Monsters’ and she knows how to camp. Gaga gave us a lesson in wardrobe marathon - a performance art piece almost.

Her Russian Doll alter ego that peeled off layers to reveal a total of four outfit changes by Brandon Maxwell was the kind of OTT theatrics you only expect at the Met Gala.

There were quirky accessories, there was wind, her lashes deserved a round of applause and Gaga was right at home. Did someone say face off?

Never one to shy away from camp, Ezra Miller’s head spinning beauty look gave me a headache. But I couldn’t help but look in admiration.
