Inside the fabulous 'camp' themed Met Gala decorated with flamingos

From cheeseburger costumes to surprise Cher concerts, this year's Met Gala has proven to be just as wild of a time inside the museum as it was on the red carpet. 

That has been thanks, in large part, to this year's theme 'Camp: Notes on Fashion', inspiring celebrities to bring their most exaggerated and over-the-top looks yet. 

And that spirit was brought to the actual Met Gala as well, where event designer Raul Àvila made sure to give everything a whimsical flair - with plenty of flamingos. 

Simple silverware and napkins were left behind as Àvila brought in baby pink tablecloths, flamingo napkins, and feather lampshades.

'Camp is all about exaggeration,' Àvila told Vogue. 'There was no room for simplicity, even when it came to the table setting.' 

Àvila drew inspiration from his Latin roots, incorporating tropical flowers in colorful vases and bamboo silverware. 

And the menu was just as colorful as the plates and tables it was served on. 

Caterer Olivier Cheng served up filet of beef with horseradish crema, tomato rye tartlets, haricot adorned with edible orange flowers, and rainbow carrots for dinner. 

On the dessert course were flamingo cookies and a Gianduja chocolate cake that featured a 'male-female' topper. 

Event designer Raul Àvila wanted to honor the fact that camp is 'all about exaggeration' in his concept of the event  ins, and father lampshades.
