Lady Gaga has a stunning procession of 4 looks... but a lot of the straights seem to lack understanding of the theme. Sorry men, a fitted black suit is not camp. Do better

Someone said that Santino Fontana was supposed to be at the Met Gala, but I haven't seen any photos or heard anything since then. Was I just being played or was he actually there?

I was wondering the same thing! There was some tweet with a guest list and his name was on it, I think it was official?

Porter was amazing as was Michael Urie. So many of the guests this year missed the entire intent of the theme. They looked nice, but not campy. Mostly the heterosexual males and the young models. I thought Harry Styles did great though.

Broadway knows how to camp!!! Agree that the people who missed the boat on the theme seem to be the straight guys...

I didn't see Sarah Jessica Parker this year.

Hey Dottie! Did your colleagues enjoy the cake even though your cat decided to sit on it? ~GuyfromGermany

Thank you.  Spectacle is not necessarily camp.

Considering the theme was specifically referencing Susan Sontag's "Notes on Camp" I would say the good majority of these fit in with her definition. 

"The essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration"

Did you know that every day Mexican gays cross our borders and unplug our brain-dead ladies?

DottieD'Luscia said: "I didn't see Sarah Jessica Parker this year."

Andy Cohen mentioned it on WATCH WHAT HAPPENS LIVE!  He said she wasn't invited this year by Anna Wintour because Parker is playing Miranda Priestly in the Broadway musical adaptation of THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, which didn't fare all too well with Ms. Wintour and her people.

I would consider most of these looks avant garde, not campy.
