What is camp? Andrew Bolton, Curator in Charge, says “Camp is inherently subjective. And that’s part of the power and part of its charm, the fact that it’s always changing.” #TheMet #CostumeInstitute #MetCamp

Some of the largest objects on display in “Camp: Notes on Fashion” are these two dresses by Giambattista Valli.

Swan Rehab: Marina Hays, Conservation Fellow, performed some “surgery” on the famous swan dress Bjork wore on the red carpet. To ensure no further damage is caused while the dress is on view during #MetCamp, a seam located at the closure of the dress—a weight-bearing area—was stabilized with conservation netting. Preventive conservation practices like these enable objects to be safely shown under appropriate conditions, such as low light and short display periods. // Dress, Marjan Pejoski (British, born Macedonia, 1968), fall/winter 2000–2001; Courtesy of Marjan Pejoski.

The countdown begins! One month until the opening of “Camp: Notes on Fashion”! Camp “is not a natural mode of sensibility, if there be any such. Indeed the essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration.” -Susan Sontag, “Notes on “Camp,’” 1964 // Ensemble, Bertrand Guyon (French, born 1965) and headpiece by Stephen Jones (British, born 1957) for House of Schiaparelli (French, founded 1927), fall/winter 2018–19 haute couture; Courtesy of Schiaparelli.

Melina Plottu, Associate Conservator, conserved this rare mid-18th century velvet waistcoat to prepare it for display in the Sontagian Gallery of #MetCamp. The garment is made of voided ciselé velvet lined with a light blue plush fabric. The treatment involved custom-dyeing silk fabric and threads to precisely match the original fabric, which was then used to stabilize holes. // Ensemble, British, ca. 1740; Purchase, Irene Lewisohn Bequest, 1977 (1977.309.1a, b). #TheMet #CostumeInstitute #fashionconservation
