This is my popish conglomerate .
The theme of the 2019Met Galawas “camp.”
It was one of the most hit-or-miss Met Gala themes ever, meaning attendees FULLY understood or FULLY had no idea what the theme meant.
Zendaya fully got it with her wholeCinderellabit.
Lupita nailed it with this rainbow look.
AndLady Gagafully committed with her multiple outfit performance.
Other celebrities seemed to have no idea what “camp” meant.
One of these celebrities who fully didn’t understand the assignment wasKarlie Kloss.
I think she thought “camp” meant some zany arm warmers and a fierce stare?
That night, Karlie went viral for her Instagram post.
This was the post:
As the caption said, she was looking camp straight in the eye.
People immediately were like, “lol, no.”
From people feeling “secondhand embarrassment”…
…to people saying she “failed miserably.”
There was a lot of negativity!
Eventually, things changed, and the look was so NOT camp that it actually became CAMP.
All of that said, Karlie has finally commented on the look in a recent interview with Vogue:
KarlieKlosshas no regrets about looking camp directly in the eye at the 2019 MetGala . In her late instalment of LifeInLooks , the theoretical account reflects on her iconic choice of words , and what she thinks of discover the internet .
“This was the Met Gala I think I broke the internet, but not in a good way,” she started.
“I still get trolled about this look where I was looking camp straight in the eye. Honestly, I deserve that one,” she finished.
Deserved it? Maybe! But it seems like she’s embracing the moment!
After all, that was history!
