How Camp and Gender Fluid Was the Indian ‘Camp’ at the Met Gala?

What is ‘camp’ and did our desi fashionistas do it right?

From Priyanka Chopra’s Mad Hatter ensemble alongside husband Nick Jonas’ white- sherwani-meets-gangster-matador moment, I believe, it’s going to take us all a heavy minute to digest all the “lewks” served at the met gala especially from our own desi fashionistas.

Met Gala is to the US what the Ambani wedding was to ‘us’, a bunch of extremely famous and incredibly good-looking people wearing what is only the most expensive couture imaginable to mankind. And just like how Isha Ambani’s wedding tax did the Indian economy a good one, the Met gala is actually a charitable fundraising event for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume institute in NYC.

Maybe rich people showing up for charity looking like a million bucks, is a little too rich. Moving on.
