The best Met Gala looks of 2019
From outrageously outlandish to high-calibre camp, we've rounded up the Met Gala 2019's best looks
Our favourite met gala looks
The theme for this year's Met Gala was 'Camp' – the first explicitly queer theme in the event's history and a concept that at was initially met with bewilderment by some. It's a complex and layered aesthetic, and one that plays a critical role both within fashion and as a mainstay of contemporary culture today.
Fom Lady Gaga's flamboyant strip tease to Lupiya Nyong'o's prismatic, bird-of-paradise inspired number, celebrities pulled out all the stops to achieve their fix of Gala glory. From outrageously outlandish to high-calibre Camp, we've rounded up the Met Gala 2019's best looks.

Bella Hadid in Jeremy Scott
Harry Styles was a dream in camp, in a semi-sheer Gucci blouse, high waisted trousers, heeled boots and single pearl earring a la Vermeer. Creative director of Gucci, Alessandro Michele, arrived closely in tow, wearing a mettalic pink catsuit with matching platform boots.
