    “It’s like desperate 60’s housewive on too much Valium, two whiskies in, bit smudgy makeup...” 😂 Alexa has always the best analogies!!! It was so interesting to see all the creative process behind the look. I loved her take on this year’s theme. And Bella has the most soothing voice, such a calming presence and so talented.
    Great great video, hope to see more!

    She’s done it a thousand times and yet she takes us on a journey like it’s her prom and she’s just as nervous at the final moment! She’s just the sweetest funniest creature. Love her!

    “The whole point of Camp is to dethrone the serious. Camp is playful, anti-serious"
    Camp is a vision of the world in terms of style - but a particular kind of style
    It is the love of the exaggerated, the ‘off,’ of things-being-what-they-are-not.”
    Alexa clearly nailed this

    why is everyone in the comments being like "not camp at all" just watch the video she explains her point of view, the dress was not extravagant or exciting enough for what we love to see on the MET but it's so true to her and so beautiful so more power to her

    • @omgshift111
      @omgshift111 Před 4 lety +11

      Having an explanation doesn't mean she's right though... It's refined camp. Which isn't camp. If she wanted to flip the script she could have played the ultimate straight man.. but the MET is about drama and fashion as an event. Camp is to be crazy (not exactly but you know what I mean). I love her outfit but it I think it missed the mark for the theme.

      Bella you have a creative mind. Get out of this place and go somewhere where you don't have to pump up this fragile creature s EGO 24/7. You can and will do alooot better than working for her. In the long run she will drain you of everything you have. Get out while you can.

    I love the whole look its absolutely beautiful but i also think it maybe could have been a bit more out there? I feel like you could get away with this dress on other red carpets as well, which probably indicates that its not extra enough for the met😄 that might just be me though

      @valerianovelo5130 Před 4 lety +17

      I think that was the point, she said camp is about being extra but also not in fashion/according to. So technically talking, not going all out is the most camp if everyone else is.

    Of course it's camp (beret, bag, shoes and dress matching is an exageration ) but at the same is refined an beautiful, the result is actually genius because going for an obvious camp is the esay thing, this is a really refined joke and oximoron look.
