Camp: Notes on Fashion was the 2019 high fashion art exhibition of the Anna Wintour Costume Center, a wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York that houses the collection of the Costume Institute.
The exhibition focused on the fashion style of camp, an aesthetic style and sensibility that regards something as appealing because of its bad taste and ironic value. The style of camp has been a part of fashion since around the 1960s. This creative style of camp has been used by people like Cher and Donatella Versace, and was worn at the 2019 met gala by celebrities like Harry Styles and Kim Kardashian.[1][2] The visual style is closely associated with gay culture.[3] It ran from May 8 through September 9, 2019, and was preceded by the annual Costume Institute Gala,[4] an annual fundraising gala benefiting the Costume Institute, and considered to be the fashion industry's biggest and most prestigious yearly event, on May 6.[5] Each year's gala celebrates the theme of that year's exhibition, and the exhibition sets the tone for the formal dress of the night.[6]
