This year's Met Gala saw a flurry of fanciful frocks and extravagant entrances. With the theme set as camp, the aim was to indulge in all things opulent. 

The Met Gala has been chaired by Vogue Magazine's editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour since 1995, the Costume Institue Gala at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the most highly anticipated fashion events globally. 

This year's theme was selected by Andrew Bolton, curator of the costume institute, he based the theme around Susan Sontag's seminal 1964 essay Notes on "Camp". With such a vivid and wide brief the glittering assembly of celebrities and VIPs who attended delivered magnificent and awe-inspiring looks.

We adored this beauty look as seen on actress Lily Collins, so much so it deserved its own special mention. The dramatic wing, lashes and shadow are balanced perfectly by her nude lips and blushed cheeks. We especially loved the floral fixtures in her large hairstyle - brides take note for your Big Day!
