It’s been a while since we’ve seen the high-camp Lady Gaga of old, but she staged a return to form as she hosted the Met Gala on Sunday night.
The theme of the annual ball, which marks the opening of the New York Costume Institute’s annual fashion exhibit, was a celebration of all things camp, giving the singer the opportunity to return to her roots.

The fashion bash’s other host, Harry Styles, also got in the camp spirit for the occasion.
He donned a ruffled sheer blouse, complete with a pair of Simon Cowell-style Cuban heels and one of Pat Butcher’s earrings.
