CAMP: Notes on Fashion Details
Review “a thumb-through of the show’s lavish if cumbersome catalog excited me.”—Roberta Smith, New York Times“Featuring about 200 objects, both fine art and fashion, Camp: Notes on Fashion will trace the origins of the subject from the 17th century, specifically the court of Versailles, to the present day, when disruption and duplicity are the common currency.”—Laird Borrelli-Persson, Vogue “[An] amazing catalogue . . . extraordinary.”—Christiane Amanpour, CNN“The catalog is divided into two discrete, mint-colored books, both of which are strapped into a handsome pink leather-bound case. The design is pure confection.”—Alex Weintraub, Los Angeles Review of Books Read more Book Description Drawing from Susan Sontag’s seminal essay, this striking volume explores the meaning of camp and its expression in fashion from its origins to today.

Reviews
second year in a row where the finer details of looks in the exhibition are not clearly visible in the catalogue due to the treatment by the photographer. The photographs are almost 'blurry'.
