UPRISING MAGAZINE | ISSUE 7
Inspired by this year’s MET Gala, “Camp: Notes on Fashion”, Uprising explores the bizarre. According to Susan Sontag’s Notes on Camp, “The essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration.” The motifs on the clothes used play on the ani-seriousness of 'Camp' with phrases of today’s culture. The rise in 'ugly fashion' as chunky sneakers, fanny packs, or socks with sandals, are fashionable because ironically, they’re not.
