Pierre et Gilles, of course...
They did everyone, you know...
And this slice of fabulosity, too!
Pierre et Gilles entry in the GLBTQ Encyclopaedia [PDF opens in new window]
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
