Being dropped off at the met gala looks like being dropped off at school on the first day! I'd be terrified

[@sarahfaith6531]

looks like the moment before you jump out of an airplane when sky diving

[@meghasummerpappachen4494]

100% … and the distant screaming 😂

[@TATYANAB]

Alexa's personality tops any outfit anytime.

[@Sofoca]

“It’s like desperate 60’s housewive on too much Valium, two whiskies in, bit smudgy makeup...” 😂 Alexa has always the best analogies!!! It was so interesting to see all the creative process behind the look. I loved her take on this year’s theme. And Bella has the most soothing voice, such a calming presence and so talented. Great great video, hope to see more!

[@rockkkkkification]

“The whole point of Camp is to dethrone the serious. Camp is playful, anti-serious" Camp is a vision of the world in terms of style - but a particular kind of style It is the love of the exaggerated, the ‘off,’ of things-being-what-they-are-not.” Alexa clearly nailed this

[@bethlou8162]

She’s done it a thousand times and yet she takes us on a journey like it’s her prom and she’s just as nervous at the final moment! She’s just the sweetest funniest creature. Love her!

[@drawingangel2]

I get her camp look. To her, that look is much too fancy and extra. I love it! It's very personalized and not like the others!

[@giovanalopes2689]

The youtube channel we didn't know we needed. 10/10

[@Liz.1014]

why is everyone in the comments being like "not camp at all" just watch the video she explains her point of view, the dress was not extravagant or exciting enough for what we love to see on the MET but it's so true to her and so beautiful so more power to her

[@omgshift111]

Having an explanation doesn't mean she's right though... It's refined camp. Which isn't camp. If she wanted to flip the script she could have played the ultimate straight man.. but the MET is about drama and fashion as an event. Camp is to be crazy (not exactly but you know what I mean). I love her outfit but it I think it missed the mark for the theme.

[@carolinatulia7343]

i’ve never opened a video so fast in my entire life

[@sani-jl6fi]

SHE'S 35??! I genuinely thought she was 20 something I-

[@headphonic8]

She has lots of lines around her mouth when she smiles. Looks like a 35 year old to me. 35 year olds aren't some ancient crypt keepers, you know.

[@jemandjemand2362]

@@headphonic8people are always so over the top when it comes to compliment others in terms of age and look. so annoying indeed.

[@Maracujakeks]

"I feel like I'm going to the dentist" Gosh she's just so genuine. Love her

[@_tavleen_9543]

The process of making your outfit was so interesting! Can't wait for more videos!!

[@lily-xj3hv]

i love how nervous she was bless her heart

[@marymurphy3669]

The only people who were nervous was the poor woman who design the outfit. The look of worry and nerves that show on her face tells everything.

[@marymurphy3669]

Bella you have a creative mind. Get out of this place and go somewhere where you don't have to pump up this fragile creature s EGO 24/7. You can and will do alooot better than working for her. In the long run she will drain you of everything you have. Get out while you can.

[@marymurphy3669]

Look at the demon face and Halloween eyes she gives Bella when she is looking into the mirror. She is a nightmare to work for.

[@marymurphy3669]

Bikini wax, more like a upper lip wax she needs.

[@lily-xj3hv]

Mary Murphy get a life mary

[@sukaicosmica]

Of course it's camp (beret, bag, shoes and dress matching is an exageration ) but at the same is refined an beautiful, the result is actually genius because going for an obvious camp is the esay thing, this is a really refined joke and oximoron look.

[@laurenfitzgerald9446]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@bodgie6256]

I love the whole look its absolutely beautiful but i also think it maybe could have been a bit more out there? I feel like you could get away with this dress on other red carpets as well, which probably indicates that its not extra enough for the met😄 that might just be me though

[@bodgie6256]

upon watching i kind of take this back, all the matchy-matchy makes it really stand out in person(i just made the comment based on the instagram posts ive seen)

[@rachelsedgwick7668]

bodgie is so

[@serriedavis]

I don’t think it was as camp as it could have been, I would have loved for her to have a train that was obviously like a Persian rug or something

[@valerianovelo5130]

I think that was the point, she said camp is about being extra but also not in fashion/according to. So technically talking, not going all out is the most camp if everyone else is.

[@pauline1809]

@@valerianovelo5130 yea but it's not like she went extra minimal and id the exact opposite of everyone else

[@marymarks7046]

She is a walking garden party. I love it. It's so different and fresh looking. If I were younger I totally would wear this ensemble. I just adore it.

[@leahgray4338]

I now need a super short dress and a sequinned beret.... Would love to strut into a Monday morning buying meeting.... I also loved the silky shorts/knickers.... Just loved the whole thing really!

[@catiepattinson776]

"a throwback, but it's timeless" amazing Alexa! Inspirational!

[@danizamora4869]

beautiful dress...but your personality, omg. so down earth and lovely. thank you for starting this channel! love it

[@ririschannelx]

This felt like a documentary

[@estefaniaskies]

Alexa looks absolutely stunning! She’s such a natural when it comes to fashion. Grew up looking up to her style, and she’s still slaying.

[@sashavoja1451]

Alexa- deeply charming. Intelligent, eloquent, disarmingly self deprecating.

[@totalshopaholic123]

I just binge watched Alexa Chung's Next in Fashion season 1 and I just have to say that Alexa has so much personality- wit, humor, confidence and beauty rolled into one! fiercely real. I love it!

[@DearAliya]

Alexa: Worries about her dress being too short Meanwhile at the Met Gala: People show as much skin as they do at Coachella

[@puddingcat25]

Aliya Huet cuz she a classy lady

[@rimelgana1656]

@@puddingcat25 true but it doesn't mean that she mean that she dont want to show her skin

[@bobmag5058]

@@puddingcat25 Seriously? She is putting on the dress with a guy in front of her braless and camera recording it and blurring side b..b! Whatever happened to somethig called dignity and privacy.

[@newdecada]

" i usually dress like a boy or a.. child... might be nice to like... be a womanIM 35! " alexa i love you. im 19 and i hope ill stay as youthful as you as long as i possibly can

[@winterheli]

she's so genuine, honest and spontaneous. i absolutely love her

[@kahoukaku2377]

So many days have passed since I fell in love with this look on IG,I'm sooooo happy to see this video! I will never forget this wonderful fancy dress! It touched me really really deeply!

[@ardianacomia2764]

I'm late for work, thanks Alexa. Absolutely gorge

[@andthediamandis6507]

love the way her mind thinks! 💙 been a fan of alexa for so long, she's the coolest ever

[@anqiteng3967]

She designed her own met gala look and that is literally what makes this the best thing ever 🥲

[@SunIsNotYellow]

I get harry styles vibes from her. She's really cool.

[@alexandravalerious3274]

dixy net freak i mean they are friends :)

[@MS-he3wz]

dixy net freak she’s way funnier and not nearly as much of a try-hard. He’s all aloof and pseudo-mysterious and she’s warm and spontaneous.

[@Lalala-of5dp]

Same. And Cara Delevingne vibes too.

[@thelighthousez3718]

@@MS-he3wz it's so obvious that you haven't seen much of him and had just a glance at him, I mean neither of us and no one in general really knows him and these are just opinions shaped through the screen but he really isn't, yes he tries for his music but his personality is not like that , sometimes his management can get a bit like that but that happens really rarely

[@christinavillastrigo1089]

Bella's voice is so soothing. I could listen to her talk literally all day.

[@vilg703]

I can't get over this look, I just adore the sequin everything

[@Rudefurby]

In love with this beautiful Met Gala look

[@shonoaflaminhotcheetos]

Her whole life is an entire mood...love her!

[@lindaw.5836]

I had no idea she was so bonkers!!! Or so BeAuTiFuL! Loved this! 🌺🏵️🌿

[@cristinitaandco]

Beautiful. Her team was amazing

[@whatsnew7299]

What a beautiful piece! I wish we could've seen her sewing the piece as well, the process to me is just as beautiful as the product

[@karindawson7941]

Thank you for sharing your process. Love the outfit! For those of us mere mortals that will never have the opportunity to go to a Met Gala, it is fun to see how you came to your final design.

[@MaryShelleysNib]

Those sequinned embroidery samples are exquisite.

[@judyhattar6742]

at first i thought it didn't match the theme but now i totally get it! its like going to school with sequence camp... brilliant

[@hallieharmon701]

I love the final look! Not the campiest but still beautiful.

[@madilynmiller]

when i saw this look i instantly fell in love!!! it's beautiful!

This entire was amazing! By far my favorite of the evening 🙌🏽

That is easily the most gorgeous sequin, or even floral, dress I’ve ever seen, my god...

[@ILIUSCOV]

Dress is beautiful and the met photos looked stunning. Beautiful choice and you looked amazing ❤️

[@maddierapp]

I don’t know what y’all are saying, this is definitely camp. It’s a full sequin matching outfit...What more do you want?

[@deadbeatfetus]

Camp perhaps?

[@natalyaporter5730]

Lubna Famida the whole point is it is the opposite of everyone else...

[@hihelloannyeong3570]

​@@natalyaporter5730 if she's suppose to be the opposite then that's not camp at all. camp is suppose to be out there and crazy (i dont know the right word but you know what i mean) but i do get why she dressed that way because this is her interpretation of camp, but for like the theme "camp" its a bit bland.

[@den1683]

That dress is an absolute dream (and so is she) 💕❤️✨

[@cometali1398]

definitely one of my favorite looks at the Met!

[@towhomitmayconcern6411]

This is very camp ! Very over the top 60s , for people who are saying it not camp !

[@kimberlygelvin9558]

I loved this little outfit and how you executed changing the length. Rescueing the already made piece. Camp or not you could wear this again. The motif is quite 'antique 70's'.
