Tonight, Billy Porter shut down the Met Gala red carpet when he arrived on a littercarried by six shirtless men!in a theatrical nod to Ancient Egypt. The Pose stars custom Sun God ensemble, by The Blonds, included a bejeweled catsuit outfitted with 10-foot wings, a 24-karat gold headpiece, as well as custom gold-leaf Giuseppe Zanotti shoes and fine jewels by Andreoli and Oscar Heyman. The mic-drop served as half fashion moment, half performance artperfectly executed on an evening when stars were asked to unleash their utmost creativity.
Ahead of his red carpet appearance, Porter spoke exclusively with Vogue about how his show-stopping Met look came together. He began by reflecting on this years theme. Camp is often used as a pejorative, Porter said. What I love about having it at the Met Gala, and contextualizing camp, is it brings honor to a word and genre that can be discounted very often, or thought of as cheesy. When its done properly, its one of the highest forms of fashion and art. As he began brainstorming ideas, inspiration struck Porter after a phone call with Ryan Murphy, the creator of Pose.

So slavery is chic when it is in an opulent fashion event?

“Seriously gone,” Serena said. “No forwarding address. I sweet-talked the building manager, and he let me take a look at her apartment. She left behind her furniture, but she took everything else she could cram into her car. I swiped a coffee mug from her counter so we could run it for prints.”

Idi Amin's entrance was better.

Idi Amin eats all you he can eat. That explains why he had trouble farting.
