It is famous for attracting luminaries of Hollywood, of fashion, music, sports, TV and the stage for an evening of fashion and charity to mark the museum's spring exhibit.

This year, the exhibit and gala are dedicated to the idea of 'camp,' as defined by Susan Sontag's 1964 essay Notes on 'Camp.' 

The Met Gala, formally known as the Costume Institute Benefit, is always chaired by a team of high-wattage celebrities, and this year is no exception.

So what exactly is 'camp'?

The museum's exhibition is based on 'Notes on Camp,' an essay written in 1964 by American author Susan Sontag.

'Camp is by nature subversive (...) confronting and challenging the status quo,' the Costume Institute's head curator Andrew Bolton said Monday at a press event about the exhibition before the gala.

'In the end, the purpose of camp is to put a smile on our faces and a warm glow in our hearts.'
