[personal profile] hopelesse
After two days of reading circular, near-frantic essays about the nature of camp, I still don't feel positive that I know what it is. However, [personal profile] isozyme and I hit on at least a few potential Met Gala looks that would have been superb, had we been invited.

  • In drag as Nancy Reagan
  • Hyper-masculine cowboy pastiche while hanky-flagging
  • Head to toe in visibly knock-off luxury brand clothing
  • High-fashion take on a lesser-known or very old superhero costume (e.g., 80s Ms Marvel, 40s Superman)
  • LITERALLY ANY DISNEY VILLAIN ICONOGRAPHY. CRUELLA DEVILLE, URSULA THE SEA WITCH, AND MALEFICENT ARE CAMP ICONS AND NO ONE EVEN TOUCHED THEM, GOD
  • In a brocade housecoat over a slinky dress, coquettish fan in hand. Stocking feet and loose, naturally-frizzed hair. Smeared, too-orange lipstick and mascara smudged under the eyes. Your Girl has been partying all night and now she is, extravagantly, home
