Last night was one of the biggest nights in the world of fashion: the Met Gala. Celebrity VIPs flocked to New York City, dressed in their most outlandish outfits, to attend the black-tie party, which raises money for the annual fashion exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute.

The Met Gala goes down on the first Monday in May every year and tickets reportedly cost $35,000 — and that's if you get on the highly exclusive guest list.

This year's Met Gala was hosted by Harry Styles and Lady Gaga and the theme was Camp: Notes on Fashion.

Fashion historian Bronwyn Cosgrave joined q's Tom Power live from New York to take us through some of the biggest highlights of the night.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's exhibition Camp: Notes on Fashion runs until Sept. 8.
