One of the best Red Carpet events in the world, Met Gala, recently happened and the celebrities walked out with beautiful outfits, matching the theme of Camp: Notes on Fashion’; an ode to all things extravagant and exaggerated, thanks to the creators who worked hard to create a perfect outfit for the stars.

The caged bodice of the dress was created from tulle and silver horsehair. A team of 10 petites-mains worked on the dress for a total of 1500 hours.

“It’s all part of the ‘camp’ theme for the Met Gala,” explained Jean Eudes from Dior’s Vermont embroidery atelier, adding that the dress was inspired by “those American television series of the 1980s… a very affected style, this whole idea of ‘more, more and more’. But always chic. Always extremely chic.”

The look was finished with Dior’s crown atop of Priyanka’s curls.
