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."

I love the Dame Edith Evans photo.
ReplyDeleteAnd the Princess Margaret-in-the-bath shot is just begging to be featured in Not The Royal Wedding!
Dame Edith is my fave, too.
DeleteAs for "HRH", I can only imagine that bathroom mirror was streaked with gin and Antony Armstrong-Jones's blood by the end of their relationship. Jx
I've seen the photo of HRH with her tiara in the bath so many times and never before seen the Earl in the top left!
ReplyDeleteYou can almost see what she was smiling at... Jx
