Images

Just uploaded a bunch of images from this exhibit. Will defer to others working on the article at this time. A few favorites here:

Occurs to me this may be a good candidate to have a gallery in the article, actually. Not sure which the lead image should be, though. The existing one is nice in that it gives a big piece of the exhibit mostly unobstructed by people (when I went today it was completely packed -- it required some patience just to get a clear shot of anything :) ). I do prefer the composition of the first one above, and the third one if it's decided having people in the picture is desirable. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 04:28, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think landing one in each section as appropriate and a gallery would be nice. If you have some details as to what’s in the images it would be even better! Gleeanon409 (talk) 04:44, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

For some of them, I took pictures of the bit of text on the floor in front of them. Didn't remember for all of them, but will go back in tomorrow and see what additional information I can add. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 05:01, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done to the extent I could. I didn't document the information well, but had a couple and added a couple more via Googling. Still a few left unidentified as yet. Also added some of them to designers' articles along with links back to this article. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 14:20, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead with this. Please add/remove/rearrange/resize as you see fit. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 18:14, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Camp: Notes on Fashion was the 2019 high fashion art exhibition of the Anna Wintour Costume Center, a wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York that houses the collection of the Costume Institute. The exhibition ran from May 8 through September 9, 2019, and was preceded by the annual Costume Institute Gala on May 6. The display for the exhibition included this rainbow cape, created by the British fashion designer Christopher Bailey for the luxury fashion house Burberry.

Garland's death and Stonewall

This whole section seems kind of out of place / too much detail for an article about an exhibition at the Met:

and her death (in London on June 22, 1969), and funeral held at the Frank Campbell Funeral Home in New York City,^[1] happened days before the Stonewall Riots took place although reports uphold that the riots were spontaneous and not related to her passing.^{[note 1]}

^ In the years since the riots occurred, the death of gay icon Judy Garland earlier in the week on June 22, 1969 has been attributed as a significant factor in the riots, but no participants in Saturday morning's demonstrations recall Garland's name being discussed. No print accounts of the riots by reliable sources cite Garland as a reason for the riot, although one sarcastic account by a heterosexual publication suggested it. (Carter, p. 260.) Although Sylvia Rivera recalls she was saddened and amazed by the turnout at Garland's funeral on Friday, June 27, she said that she did not feel like going out much but changed her mind later. (Duberman, pp. 190–191.) Bob Kohler used to talk to the homeless youth in Sheridan Square, and said, "When people talk about Judy Garland's death having anything much to do with the riot, that makes me crazy. The street kids faced death every day. They had nothing to lose. And they couldn't have cared less about Judy. We're talking about kids who were fourteen, fifteen, sixteen. Judy Garland was the middle-aged darling of the middle-class gays. I get upset about this because it trivializes the whole thing." (Deitcher, p. 72.)

Surely it's just enough to leave it as saying Garland is a gay icon instead since that's all that's needed to contextualize the reason for the song being played. I'm being WP:BOLD and removing this; it might be more apt in Judy Garland as gay icon. Umimmak (talk) 18:19, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
