If you were wondering why this outfit worked so seamlessly to mimic the high waisted shorts of the RED Era, it’s because Taylor’s red ombre bodysuit (worn underneath here) were designed perfectly to look like a regular pair of shorts.

This dress was incredibly fun in motion - the degradé here is thanks to thousands of hand-applied Swarovski crystals.

The starburst bodice design feels just the right amount of ethereal and “sparkling” for a song like “Enchanted”.

This stunning ballgown is an architectural feat and gives us a very strong throwback to Taylor’s Valentino ballgown on the Speak Now Tour.

I audibly gasped when I first saw photos of this asymmetrical bodysuit.

As a former dancer myself who’s done a chair dance, I respect and feel a kinship towards Taylor challenging herself with more intricate and highly choreographed numbers on this tour. It’s even more impressive when you consider that the number appears on the tour’s final section of a three hour show.

It’s of zero surprise to me that this ruffled, tie-front dress that Taylor wears for the evermore section on tour is by Etro.

This is Taylor Swift at her most classic for the stage - a fringed, sparkly dress and boots. It doesn’t get more staple than that.

Taylor employs an old dancers trick to get her legs looking the way they do on stage - double layering tights.

If you were wondering why this outfit worked so seamlessly to mimic the high waisted shorts of the RED Era, it’s because Taylor’s red ombre bodysuit (worn underneath here) were designed perfectly to look like a regular pair of shorts.

It’s nice in a lot of ways that this tender, stripped down moment in Taylor’s set that’s dedicated entirely to her roots as a singer-songwriter brings with it two very familiar names.

While we again don’t quite know which song this get up is for, what we do know is the makeup was done by Pat McGrath - just as it was for the night Taylor announced Midnights at the MTV VMAs.

Taylor’s beautiful rich performance gown for her folklore/evermore medley at the 2021 Grammys is a custom fil coupé chiffon gown with paisley motifs and lace ruffles by Etro.

Many, many, many more thoughts to come later. But for now … I’m just breathless.

I almost got a brief Faith Connexion vibe from this dress given the waist-tie detail which was so common amongst those pieces back in the reputation days. But, of course, this is another FP piece for Taylor. 

This heart-embroidered menswear-inspired suit set is one of the most Taylor and Lover-appropriate lewks we’ve been served this era thus far.

For her performance of “IDSB”, Taylor served up a hybrid version of two bodysuits she wears on tour plus a pair of boots she also wears on tour. 

As Reputation Taylor looks on at a pile of her own previous identities, she’s wearing a custom crushed velvet and faux fur sleeved Phillip Plein bodysuit.

As Taylor described this as 2017′s only concert, she sure made it count with this intricately sheer top and tassel skirt combo from Versace. Obviously inspired by the Spring 2016 Atelier collection, it’s yet another sparkly all-black stage outfit I can get on board with.

As expected, Taylor’s outfit for her only performance in 2016 was custom and sparkly. A fun thing worth noting is the continued use of chokers in her outfits.
