Taylor Swift’s 12 Best Outfits from the 1989 World Tour

Decked out head-to-toe in all-black and all-sequin everything by Kaufman Franco (including matching microphone), Taylor even managed to look good with a golf club in Kanata in Ontario, Canada.

One of our all-time favorite looks from the tour so far, nothing says pop princess more than this bejeweled all-in-one number, paired with a trademark red lip.

Sporting another sparkling outfit in a shiny green jacket and purple skirt, it’s no wonder she needed sunglasses. The varsity detail on the jacket gives it a nice too-cool-for-school edge.

Swift shook it off in this green flapper-inspired, tasseled crop top and skirt that she wore during a performance in Montreal.

Swift looked fierce in a sharp long-line blazer with sequin detailing and black sparkly booties in Montreal.

Throughout her shows Swift has flaunted her long legs in an array of shiny skirts and jewel-encrusted crop tops, as pictured here in Dublin, Ireland.

Swift’s overall fun vibe on the tour has extended to her fashion choices. Not one to shy away from bold colors, she is pictured here performing in Philadelphia in a rainbow-colored sequin jacket.

Swift quite literally lit up the stage in Las Vegas, where she looked flirty and feminine in this summery pink skirt and matching top complete with L.E.D. lights and silver strappy heels.

Swift revealed her sultry side in this sexy, black, glittery outfit, pictured during a concert in Las Vegas.

In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Swift made the stage her personal catwalk in black thigh-high boots and suspenders.

Singer or supermodel? Swift showcased her incredible figure in another all-black, killer combo.

In yet another crop top and skirt, it shows that as far as Swift is concerned, this combination will never go out of style.

Every outfit Taylor Swift wore on the 1989 World Tour, ranked

• Taylor Swift will release "1989 (Taylor's Version)" on Friday.
• To mark the occasion, we ranked every outfit she wore during the 1989 World Tour in 2015.
• Her silver bodysuit, featuring sequined tassels and a plunging neckline, took the top spot.

21. The multi-colored two-piece set

Respectfully, what is this? I was a Swiftie in 2015 and I have no memory of her wearing this confusing pattern onstage. In all senses, it's a miss.

20. The ballerina look

Swift layered a tulle skirt over her sequined bodysuit when she performed a mash-up of "Enchanted" and "Wildest Dreams" (also when John Legend arrived as a special guest to sing "All of Me" in Los Angeles).

I understand Swift's attempt to match the romantic mood, but the skirt was too yellowish to have true elegance.

19. The "Shake It Off" dress

Swift occasionally wore this fringed outfit in hot pink and dark blue — a precursor to the green, pink, orange, and blue sequined sets that she wears during the "1989" segment on The Eras Tour . 

The original version is cute, and clearly Swift likes it enough to recreate it eight years later. But funnily enough, this look doesn't scream "1989" like the skater skirts and bomber jackets. It's just not memorable.

18. The "Out of the Woods" catsuit

Swift covered in head-to-toe sequins has a nice effect, especially from a faraway vantage point. But the flesh-colored mesh on her chest makes the jumpsuit look cheaper than it is.

I much prefer the black version that Swift wore at the 2016 Grammys.

17. The black two-piece set

This look is fine. It's a concert classic. But in retrospect, it does feel a little simple — dare I say basic?

16. The black skirt

This is a small step up from the black shorts, but the pleather skirt is a millennial fashion trend I wish to forget.

15. The black two-piece set with a silver trim

This Las Vegas version is the best of Swift's black two-piece sets, but the silver studs look very outdated today. You could've found a knockoff at any Forever 21 in 2015.

14. The purple skirt

Purple metallic is a fun touch, but as the designated "Speak Now" color , but it's not giving "1989" like its blue counterparts.

13. The royal blue skirt

Today, this shade of blue is more associated with Swift's 10th album "Midnights," but at the time, it fit perfectly in the "1989" era. The color is rich and really pops onstage.

12. The purple jacket

The sequined bomber jacket is another "1989" tour staple. When Swift arrived onstage with her sleeves rolled up and sunglasses on, you knew it was time to search for a sound we hadn't heard before.

11. The silver jacket

The silver jacket gives a stronger '80s vibe than purple, calling to mind MTV's golden era of music videos.

10. The light blue skirt

This look is quintessential "1989." The bright, metallic blue evokes the sleek, glittering hues of a cityscape — perfect for the show's opening number, "Welcome to New York."

9. The blue jacket

Again, the light blue bomber is quintessential "1989." As Vanity Fair wrote at the time, "The varsity detail on the jacket gives it a nice too-cool-for-school edge."

8. The rainbow jacket

Out of all the jackets, this is the best option by far. The blue-purple-pink blend has become a key ingredient in Swift's iconography, from her performance of "Dress" during the "Reputation" tour to her dyed hair in the "You Need to Calm Down" music video.

7. The blue bodysuit

Swift called back to this midnight-blue bodysuit with beaded fringe during her fifth Los Angeles stop on The Eras Tour .

It wasn't in her regular rotation during the "1989" era, which gives it an exciting, limited-edition quality.

6. The silver fringe

The silver bodysuit with beaded fringe is exactly what a flapper would wear if she traveled through time to sing "Shake It Off."

5. The "How You Get the Girl" outfit

Of all the shiny "1989" looks, this is certainly the most unique — not least because it literally lights up. Swift's pink top and matching skirt were striped with LED lights (as were her 12 backup dancers and their umbrella props).

Electronic engineer Dave Sheinkopf told InStyle that Swift's outfit was programmed like a Times Square billboard screen. Her lighting crew was tasked with syncing "35,000 moving parts" to achieve the intended effect.

"It's the first time that's been done with 13 people at once," he said at the time, calling it "the most complicated wearable lighting system for a stage show."

4. The leather catsuit

I'm partial to this look because it's the one I associate with Mick Jagger as a surprise guest (iconic) and Swift's rock version of "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" (even more iconic).

3. The "Blank Space" blazer

I love the blazers that Swift slips on to perform "The Man" on The Eras Tour, but the original blazer reigns supreme. It gives Swift the oomph of a woman in charge — the ideal outfit to wear while singing, "Boys only want love if it's torture."

2. The "I Know Places" look

This is one of Swift's best-known looks from the "1989" era — and for good reason. This outfit radiates pop-star energy, from the sequin trim of her tube top down to the heels of her thigh-high boots.

1. The "Style" bodysuit

This silver look takes the cake. It's theatrical and stage-ready — kinda like something Christina Aguilera would wear in "Burlesque" — without being over-the-top and hammy. Marie Claire also likened the plunging neckline to Marilyn Monroe's iconic dress in "The Seven Year Itch."

Put simply, it's an outfit made for a star.

See All of Taylor Swift's Dazzling '1989 World Tour' Costumes

It's no secret that Taylor Swift has style. The superstar's1989 World Tour kicked off in Tokyo earlier this week, and she worked a series of incredible ensembles as she belted out her hits onstage.

Unsurprisingly, the singer's flirty outfits feature lots of leg, metallic shades, glitter, and plenty of fringe--which she appropriately dons for her "Shake It Off" dance number that closes the show. One thing's certain: her onstage sartorial prowess is as on-point as her street style.

Take a look at more of her dazzling performance looks below:

All of Taylor Swift's Best 1989 Tour Outfits So Far

Taylor Swift is our ultimate girl crush. When she's not writing catchy chart-topping tracks, she's dating some of the cutest boys in Hollywood (and London), providing us with serious #squadgoals thanks to her BFF-filled Instagrams, and, of course, acting as a constant source of major fashion inspiration.

And yes, that extends to every outfit she's worn during her 1989 World Tour—during the three shows that have happened so far, at least. From sparkly bandeau tops to a jacket that can only be described as 'disco ball-esque,' Taylor has really kicked it up a notch with her on-stage ensembles. Say goodbye to her signature pastel prints and ladylike cocktail dresses—her latest tour look is far more "Bad Blood" than "Blank Space."

Here are Teen Vogue's favorite picks so far...

What's not to love about a sparkly wrap-around tank top paired with matching high-waisted shorts? Absolutely nothing.

She's got that good girl faith and a tight little skirt...

An all-over sequined black onesie? We need this in our party outfit arsenal, ASAP.

The only thing better than a dazzling silver bomber jacket? One that incorporates every color of the rainbow, of course.

But the piece de resistance is this bedazzled body suit, which is giving us serious Brittney circa her "Toxic" music video flashbacks. Not that we're complaining—Tay is positively Shutting. It. Down. in this outfit.

For a real stage style statement, Taylor matched said sparkly bandeau top with a glittering royal blue skater skirt and an eye-catching jacket that redefines what it means to be 'disco ball chic.' Yes, it's a thing.

In Detroit, Tay channeled her inner 1920s flapper clad in a show-stopping halter jumpsuit complete with fringe.

This ensemble is more risqué than Taylor's usual look. Behold: tiny white shorts, a matching strapless tank and thigh-high black boots. But her best accessory? Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons.

Taylor Swift kicked off her 1989 tour in Tokyo yesterday, and from the get-go, it was obvious that her edgier, maybe-due-to-Calvin-Harris style wasn't taking a backseat to the tailored shorts and flat sneaks she wore on the Red tour last year.

To open things up, she picked a sparkly skater mini and a bra top with side cutouts (her glitter-covered boots are by Stuart Weitzman ). This fan group counted eleven different outfit switches, and while there were some more classically demure Taylor, others had the bombshell level cranked way up.

For one, she wore a sparkly catsuit similar to the one BFF Karlie Kloss showed off on the Victoria's Secret runway.

A photo posted by Taylor Swift Argentina (@taylorswift_argentina) on May 6, 2015 at 4:21am PDT

Her other sparkly pick was a short romper, worn with wings.

She paired thigh-high heeled boots with high-waisted shorts, connected by garterlike straps.

A photo posted by @befearless10 on May 6, 2015 at 3:00am PDT

And from neck to toe, this all-leather look had a sexy dominatrix vibe that was hard to deny (especially paired with that cage-like contraption).

You Must See Everything Taylor Swift Is Wearing on Tour

Rainbow sequins, beaded fringe, and thigh-high boots.

Blake Lively may have masterfully worn  10 looks in one day , but Taylor Swift did the same thing in a matter of  hours . BOOM.

Earlier this week, Swift kicked off her  1989 World Tour  in Tokyo and made our sartorial dreams come true while she was at it. Her onstage wardrobe gave us everything we've come to expect from the ladylike-cool star—retro silhouettes, crop tops, matching sets, and shimmering embellishments—but she also threw us a few fashion curve-balls, like a leather catsuit, thigh-high boots à la  Pretty Woman , and even a light-up confection. (Eat your heart out, Katy Perry ). Here, find an outfit-by-outfit breakdown of every single look we've seen so far.

1. The Pink Fringe Dress

https://instagram.com/p/98owRQjvET/

Since the  1989  tour began back in May, we've loved everything Swift has donned for her  star-studded performances . This said, we couldn't help but get excited about the first new piece Swift has introduced since hitting the road.

In keeping with fringey-embellished vibe of the rest of her wardrobe, she stepped out on the stage in Shanghai donning a powdery pink, beaded fringe mini-dress that we are suh-wooning over.

2. A Rainbow Fish Bomber Jacket

With its rich jewel tones and sequin detailing, we can't imagine the inspiration behind this zip-up bomber is anything but the childhood storybook classic  The Rainbow Fish . She pairs it with a black beaded crop top and a high-waisted, belly-button-covering flared skirt that's equally as a shiny.

3. Glam Rock Ankle Boots

Swift takes a page from David Bowie's book by pairing her newly-minted stage uniform—the black beaded crop top and flare skirt—with a glittery pair of lace-up platform ankle boots.

4. A Sequin Shorts Suit

Even Swift's most buttoned-up look of the tour is sparkly! She pairs this immaculately-tailored sequin shorts suit with matching ankle boots.

5. A Jeweled Bodysuit

https://instagram.com/p/2Tkoc5Isbc/?taken-by=shiftyswifty1989

Swift matched her Victoria's Secret Angel BFF Karlie Kloss, who wore a similar jeweled bodysuit to parade down the runway as Swift performed. It's also worth nothing that this naked-ish number bears a striking resemblance to the risqué,  side-butt baring  Met Gala looks donned by Jennifer Lopez , Kim Kardashian, and Beyoncé. (T-Swift, so hot right now.)

6. An LED Crop Top and Skirt

https://instagram.com/p/2TSLRyiEBi/?taken-by=jmzjmzjmz

It would appear that Swift wanted to give a nod to LED wristbands, which flash along to the rhythms of her  1989  jams. She loved them so much, she even handed out to the entire audience! For the rest of her non-Lite-Brite look, she opted for this light-up pink frock that matches her umbrella-toting backup dancers.

7. A Leather Catsuit

https://instagram.com/p/2UR5z0KHkM/?taken-by=romantics.anthem

Two words: Meeeee..ooowww. Swift surely got tongues wagging in this second skin leather catsuit—and, is that a  pair of bants  we spy?

8. A Marilyn Monroe-esque Onsie

https://instagram.com/p/2Tr56lxicO/?taken-by=taylorswift__officials

A testament to her propensity for retro style, Swift channels Monroe in  The Seven Year Itch  wearing this white plunging halter playsuit with swinging beaded fringe.

9. Thigh-High Boots

https://instagram.com/p/2UDlthInXO/?taken-by=alltswift13

Swift ups the bombshell factor of her glitter-trimmed white matching set by pairing it with thigh-high boots, complete with a pinup-staple: the garter belt.

10. A Green Flapper Dress

https://instagram.com/p/2UD04TonXo/?taken-by=alltswift13

She shakes it off by channeling her inner-flapper in this bright green, beaded fringe romper topped off with a waist-cinching belt. We're dying to see this thing in motion.

11. A Shimmery Matching Set

https://instagram.com/p/2TiWfTSuGR/?taken-by=umeume_123

Swift has proven she's nothing if not a fan of crop tops, high-waisted bottoms, and embellishments. So, this sequin trimmed crop top and shorts are essentially her version of the LBD.

12. A Bejeweled Bra Top

https://instagram.com/p/2TgU9mijTt/?taken-by=ellie_2213

Worn with high-waisted cigarette pants, she amps up the classic crop top with a royal blue hue and jewel detailing.

Taylor Swift Just Debuted New 1989 Outfits—See the Pics

It's a new era. The European leg of the much-lauded Eras Tour officially kicked off in Paris tonight, and Taylor Swift had plenty of newness up her sleeve. For starters, she added a section for her newest album, The Tortured Poets Department , during which she debuted a new all-white outfit. She began that part of the performance wearing a marching band coat complete with epaulets. She then shed that layer and revealed a white dress custom-made by Vivienne Westwood emblazoned with the lyrics, "I love you, it's ruining my life." The dress is made of recycled taffeta, and she completed the look with custom Christian Louboutin lace-up ankle boots.

During the Paris show, Swift also debuted a new fringe dress and black boots for the Fearless era, new tops and skirts for 1989 , and a new Midnights bodysuit by Zuhair Murad Couture. Phew! How does she continue to top herself every single concert? Scroll down to see the photos.

Taylor Swift's New 1989 Outfits

So far, Taylor Swift has debuted four new color combinations for her 1989 era, all designed by Roberto Cavalli with Christian Louboutin boots. On May 17, Swift revealed her latest look in Stockholm, Sweden. The yellow and blue represent the colors of Sweden's flag.

Taylor Swift wore a custom Vivienne Westwood Couture dress with Christian Louboutin ankle boots for the Tortured Poets Department era.

New Midnights Bodysuit

Taylor wore a new blue Zuhair Murad Couture custom bodysuit with Christian Louboutin Gael Boots for her Midnights era.

New Fearless Outfit

Fans are loving her new Fearless fringed dress, which she paired with Christian Louboutin boots.

New Lover Bodysuit

Last but not least, Swift debuted a new orange bodysuit by Versace and matching Christian Louboutin knee-high boots for the Lover set.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29 , where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.

The perfect mani for my favourite time of year.

Taylor Swift ‘1989’ World Tour: Set list, costumes, the stage, the spectacle

Warning: If you’re one of the Taylor Swift fans planning to see a concert on her highly-hyped “1989” world tour this year and don’t want spoilers, look away.

But if you’re curious about how one of the savviest pop stars of our time puts on a massive concert (expected to gross about $200 million ) here are some scenes from the first tour stop. It kicked off at the Tokyo Dome in Japan on Tuesday in front of a 55,000-plus sold out crowd; immediately, details started pouring out on social media.

* The set list:

While Swift’s set list generally stays the same throughout a tour, she’s always one for surprises: As she’s acknowledged, most of her diehard fans — the ones that ensure she’s the only artist who can still sell a million copies of an album these days — have watched  the entire concert on YouTube months before they arrive at the venue.

“Everything we’ve ever done, every decision I’ve made on my last tours, I wanted to flip it and do the opposite for this one,” Swift recently told “Access Hollywood.” “You have to switch it up, cause people get bored — more easily in 2015 than ever before.”

[ What a single tweet from Taylor Swift does to your music sales ]

Judging from the lists that have cropped up on Twitter, Swift plays nearly the entire “1989” album during the two-hour concert. Her Nashville roots are long gone, as are the majority of famous hits from her first albums. Though she does go back in time for “Love Story” (the third-highest selling digital country song of all time); “Enchanted” and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.”

For the record, Swift’s show in Tokyo started at around 6:30 p.m. in Japan, translating to 5:30 a.m. Eastern: But fans were eagerly waking up at all hours to find the details:

* The stage:

Swift will play many stadiums and arenas on the tour (which arrives in America on May 20 in Bossier City, La.), so expect it to look something like this:

Swift promised the fashion would be epic this time around.

* The opening number:

* The Katy Perry song:

* The Harry Styles song:

“Style,” naturally, also known as her current single.

* The show closer:

“Shake It Off,” of course.

[ Is Taylor Swift’s ‘Shake It Off’ video offensive? That’s what people say, mmm mmm. ]

* The after-party:

Similarly to the “T-Party” and “Club Red,” Swift’s team invites the hardcore fans to a meet and greet after the show. Looks like this one is called “Loft 89,” according to @TSwiftOnTour , a fan account that tweets details from every concert.

Taylor Swift Brought Out a New Look for the ‘1989’ Section of ‘The Eras Tour’

Taylor Swift is back on tour, ushering in a sea of Swifties analyzing everything, down to the colors of her outfits and what all of the changes mean for each section of the tour. Now we get to do that again during the European leg of the tour.

One of the biggest reveals of her Paris concert is that Swift has a new outfit for the 1989 part of her concert. The new look is a sparkly crop top with a sparkly skirt and matching sparkly Christian Louboutin boots. Previously the outfit was a Roberto Cavalli matching fringe bra and mini skirt. The new 1989 outfit brings us right back into that era of Swift’s life, as fans will remember she would wear those skirts often back in 2014.

The details of the outfit are fun: The top is an ombré pink, the skirt is an ombré turquoise color, and the shoes are mismatched, with one being the pink coloring and the other being the turquoise color. A user on X (formerly known as Twitter), joked “With all these changes, Taylor should rename it the Eras Tour (Europe’s Version) ” and they’re not wrong. She did open the Europe tour and say “time for change” in the eyes of fans.

With the new outfit came a change to the setlist as well. Swift, who recently released The Tortured Poets Department , added songs from the album to the tour.  “But Daddy I Love Him,” “So High School,” “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” “Down Bad,” “Fortnight,” “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived,” and “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” were all added to the set. And that means that other songs were cut.

But back to this new 1989 outfit

Many fans online pointed out that the change in the 1989 outfit does feel like the original tour looks that Swift was wearing at the time. During The 1989 Tour , Swift had a lot of cropped sparkly tops and sparkly skirts as part of her wardrobe!

@jessicagolich Omg I’m obsessed with the new 1989 fit!! ?? #new1989outfiterastourparis #erastourparisnight1 #erastourfrance #parisnight1 #pariststheerastour #swifties ♬ original sound – JessicaGolich

While her previous fringe top is also a staple of Swift’s wardrobe, this is a much more fitting look for that era of her concerts. Plus it is now another outfit I justwant to add to my wardrobe too!

Taylor Swift's 1989 World Tour Wardrobe Includes a Light-Up Crop Top, Lots of Minis and More!

Highlight's from the singer's 1989 tour wardrobe!

Brittany Talarico is PEOPLE's Deputy Style Director, where she oversees the brand's digital Style and Beauty coverage. This includes running lead on the Met Gala, which is among PEOPLE.com's top-trafficked red carpet events every year, interviewing the industry's top influencers (including all the Kardashian-Jenners), and breaking A-list celeb news (a New Jersey shore native, it is no surprise that her favorite interview ever was with Bruce Springsteen). Brittany is a style contributor to People Every Day Podcast and has represented the brand on national TV programs including Good Morning America and The CW's two TV specials on the British Royals. She joined PEOPLE from Cosmopolitan in 2013, where she was an Associate Editor.

We really missed Taylor Swift at Monday night’s Met Gala . (Quick recap of last year: She went with bestie Karlie Kloss and stunned in an Oscar de la Renta gown , which her cat attacked during a fitting .) But the singer is busy kicking off her 1989 World Tour in Tokyo, and as expected, her wardrobe is pretty amazing.

For starters, Swift’s crop top game is very strong. She wears a variety of sparkly, midriff-baring toppers and coordinating skirts during her energetic sets, including a black sparkling bustier, metallic purple mini, silver sequin bomber and glittery Stuart Weitzman “Gran” booties.

But her most noteworthy look so far is her light-up, technicolor twosie! The pink crop top and matching flare skirt looked to be rigged with twinkling bulbs. Swift wore the design during her performance of “How to Get the Girl.” See her in action in the fan clip below.

The 25-year-old singer has also perfected her strut, and her $40 million dollar legs are looking extra toned in all the super-short hemlines she’s sporting.

According to Swift, 55,000 fans filled the stadium in Tokyo to see her debut concert, but the most special people in the room were probably her parents, Scott Swift and Andrea Finlay, who made the trip to support their daughter despite Finlay’s recent cancer diagnosis .

Here's What You Should Wear to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour (Based On Her Actual Concert Outfits)

Spoiler alert: The Lover outfits are sooooo cute.

Seventeen picks products that we think you'll love the most. We may earn commission from the links on this page.

If you were one of the lucky handful of fans who scored Eras Tour tickets for the small price of blood, sweat, tears, and literal weeks of paychecks, you probably want to go all out with a fabulous ‘fit worthy of your favorite Taylor Swift era. After all, the Instagram pics of your night with Miss T. are almost as crucial as trading friendship bracelets at the show, prepping for crowd chants , and keeping an eye out for a rare Matty Healy sighting .

Getting dressed for a Taylor Swift concert or an Eras livestream watch party is basically a game of Tag Yourself, Taylor’s Albums edition. Are you an O.G. Speak Now fan who is a hopeless romantic at heart, or a diehard 1989 stan still low-key hoping Harry Styles has been secretly in love with Taylor this entire time? Maybe you’re thinking more along the lines of an all-black Reputation- style slay with snake accessories, or you could even pull out the purple New York University regalia and dress up as Graduation Taylor for the memes. It’s hard to choose just one era, and based on her numerous mid-concert outfit changes, Taylor thinks so, too.

It comes down to how you want to feel for the night — Speak Now royal, sparkly and totally Fearless, or whimsically Evermore . We’ve put together a complete guide of Taylor Swift concert outfit inspo based on her album aesthetics to help you nail down your ultimate Eras tour outfit.

Fearless (2008)

Some of Taylor's most well-known songs were released in her Fearless album , from "Love Story" to "You Belong With Me." Step into a time machine and travel all the way back to 2008, where you can rock out with young Taylor in matching fringe dresses and sparkly-heeled boots. A chunky heel is your best bet for dancing all night long sans foot pain.

YZHM Sequin Fringe Mini Dress

GUESS "Basic" Gold Fringe Linear Drop Earrings

Betsey Johnson Cady Rhinestone Boots

Speak now (2010).

It's your (and Taylor's) fairytale, we're all just living in it. Taylor has worn multiple incredible ballgowns on tour to sing "Enchanted," and we're considering it full permission to pull up to her concert rocking a dreamy, flowy dress. From fluffy tulle to beads, embroidery, and ruffles, the possibilities are endless.

ASOS DESIGN Curve Floral Embellished Ruffle Detail Mini Dress

Xijun Puffy Sleeve Tulle Lilac A-Line Dress

Windsor Kayla Tulle Short Party Dress

🎶 "Who's Taylor Swift, anyways? Ew!" 🎶 Recreate Taylor's cheeky "22" outfit with red heart-shaped sunnies, a black fedora, and a "not a lot going on at the moment" (understatement of the year, TBH) T-shirt. Don't forget the cherry red lipstick, which never goes out of ~style~.

Armear Heart Shaped Retro Sunglasses

We Are Never Getting Back Together Like Ever T-Shirt

ASTRQLE Classic Black Wool Blend Fedora

1989 (2014).

Shiny bling and neon metallics are necessary for ✨ Shaking It Off ✨ to multiple songs from Taylor's full-blown pop debut, 1989. You can recreate an outfit she wore on her 1989 tour with a rainbow bomber jacket and turquoise skater skirt, or go for hot pink sequins like Taylor wore on stage in Arizona.

Anna-Kaci Sequin Bomber Zip-Up Jacket

Amazon Pleated Skater Skirt

Lulus Hilaria Fuchsia Sequin Bodycon Mini Dress

And don't forget the most important part of your Eras Tour outfit — the accessories! Fans have decked themselves out in everything from bedazzled sunglasses to glitzy cowboy hats to friendship bracelets and sparkly, heart-shaped earrings.

JOJANEAS Bracelet Making Kit

4E's Novelty Novelty Pink Cowboy Hat with Feathers

Forever21 Faux Gem Rectangular Sunglasses

Reputation (2017).

The Reputation girlies are not 👏 messing 👏 around 👏 . Taylor changed into a one-legged black sequin bodysuit with red snakes to perform "Don't Blame Me," "...Ready For It," "Delicate," and "Look What You Made Me Do." Pay homage to her dark era with snake tights, black sequins, or a Reputation shirt , because you came to slay and you know it.

Floerns Sequin Mesh Long Sleeve Mini Dress

Leg Avenue Dark Alternative Animal Fishnet Tights

Freedomtees RepuTAYtion Unisex T-Shirt

Lover (2019).

The serotonin is real. Lover is filled with bubblegum pop tunes that Taylor has been performing while decked out in iridescent shades of blue, pink, and lavender. Butterfly crop tops or feathered sequins fit the bill, and don't forget to accessorize with a heart purse.

Mocure Sparkly Butterfly Sequin Crop Top

Steve Madden B Lover Pink Purse

Giovacker Sparkle Sequined Crop Top

Or, take a cue from Taylor who popped her glitzy suit jacket over her rainbow bodysuit to perform "The Man". If it's going to be chilly at your concert venue, recreating this outfit is the perfect excuse to wear a jacket. Her red-bottom Louboutins perfectly matched her signature red lippie, so don't forget the lipstick.

Pieces Premium Exclusive Oversized Glitter Blazer

Onlymaker Sequin Pointed Toe Boots

Clinique Pop Reds Lipstick

Folklore (2020).

The word "cardigan" was never the same again after the release of Folklore. If it looks like the weather is going to be chilly on the day of your Taylor Swift concert, a knit varsity cardigan is an authentic move. Otherwise, take a cue from Taylor's performance outfit and go for a flowy, ethereal dress in muted shades of purple or cream.

Lucky Brand Textured Varsity Cardigan

LYANER Off Shoulder Wrap Layer Ruffle Mini Dress

Selkie The Sugarfrill Puff Classic in Yellow

Alternatively, live out your woodland fairy dreams in a flowy green number with plenty of foliage detailing. Flower crowns, leaf earrings, and Grecian sandals will complete your look.

Pretty Little Thing Plus Olive Satin Frill Layered Midaxi Dress

LYANER Satin Silky Wrap Mini Dress

DDazzling Green Leaf Boho Crown

Evermore (2020).

Taylor changed into a mustard yellow corset dress to serenade the audience with "Champagne Problems" (played on a woodsy, moss-covered piano, no less) along with a handful of other songs from her second album of 2020. A velvet, corduroy, or suede jumper dress is the perfect E vermore vibe — or, braid your hair back into a single braid and pop on a plaid shacket to recreate the E vermore album cover.

LA Hearts Tan Plaid Shacket

Floerns Button Down Pinafore Corduroy Overall Dress

Urban Outfitters Douro Gauzey Midi Dress

Midnights (2022).

Meet Taylor at midnight by dressing like the darkest night sky speckled with stars and glitter. Whether it's a star-themed dress or a multicolor sequin jumpsuit, the Midnights aesthetic is blinged-out and glitzy — fringe is optional, but fully recommended.

Since her debut at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2008, Taylor Swift has become a staple of the awards show. She’s earned a staggering 60 nominations, ultimately taking home 23 Moon Men over the years — just two short of Beyoncé, who currently has the most VMAs with 25 wins. Her red carpet appearances have evolved alongside her musical stylings, starting with a youthful knee-length dress in 2008, and progressing to bolder, avant-garde looks by the likes of Versace.

Here, WWD takes a look at Taylor Swift’s style evolution on the MTV VMAs red carpet over the past 16 years.

In 2008, during her first MTV VMA appearance, Swift wore an off-white minidress from Kaufmanfranco that subtly picked up the red carpet’s hue, reflecting a delicate blush tone on the pleated skirt. She paired the dress with shiny, silver heeled sandals.

The 2009 MTV VMAs are remembered for Kanye West’s interruption during Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video. Swift was wearing this one-shoulder gown from Kaufmanfranco’s 2009 resort line, featuring waves of beads cascading down the full-length dress during the infamous moment as well. She completed the look with Lorraine Schwartz earrings.

Swift took a break from the VMAs for a few years following the 2009 incident with West. When she returned three years later, she did so with a complete style change, wearing a structured, all-white J. Mendel suit from the Spring 2012 collection. She completed the look with strappy gold sandals and her signature red lip.

Swift continued to channel vintage Femme Fatale vibes with her 2013 VMAs look, a form-fitting black crystalized gown featuring a plunging neckline by Herve Leger, complementing the vintage-inspired, dramatic aesthetics of her “Red” era.

Taylor Swift’s blue alphabet-printed romper by Mary Katrantzou at the 2014 VMAs captured the bold, pop-centric essence of her Jack Antonoff-produced “1989” album. The powder blue romper featured long sleeves, a high-cut style and was paired with maroon peep-toe booties. As Sarah Chapelle noted, “The ‘1989’ transformation was a fun period of time to be tracking her clothing as she took to the streets of New York in coordinating two-pieces and teetering tall heels.”

Taylor Swift went for an elevated athleisure look in 2015 with a houndstooth two-piece by Ashish, featuring a cropped top and jogger-style pants in hues of silver, gold and bronze. She paired the sequined-look with Christian Louboutin Pumpstagram heels.

At the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards, Swift shone in a crystal-embellished Oscar de la Renta dress from the brand’s resort 2023 collection. The halter-neck silhouette featured cascading crystals that created a cutout in the bodice. She once again paired the look with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry and Louboutin silver sandals adorned with charms.

Following the release of “Midnights” and the first leg of her Eras tour, Swift wore a custom black Versace dress. The gown featured an asymmetrical neckline with button detailing cascading along the skirt, left unfastened to reveal a thigh-high slit. She completed the look with strappy heels from Jimmy Choo at the 2023 VMAs.

Come back to see her 2024 look. The 2024 MTV VMAs will feature performances by artists like Anitta, Camila Cabello, Eminem, Halsey and Lenny Kravitz. The awards show, airing live from New York, starts at 8 p.m. ET.

White Nights

Although the phenomenon known as the "White Nights" is not unique to St. Petersburg, in no other northern city have they received such poetic and literary acclaim. What could be more romantic than a walk along the banks of the city's rivers and canals in almost broad daylight, no matter what the time of day? No other major European city can rival this experience nor the atmosphere on the streets of St. Petersburg during the summer months - lively, friendly, romantic and bustling with people throughout the night as well as the day!

From late May to early July the nights are bright in St. Petersburg, with the brightest period, the White Nights, normally lasting from June 11 th to July 2 nd . The White Nights (Beliye Nochi) are a curious phenomenon caused by St. Petersburg's very northerly geographical location - at 59 degrees 57' North (roughly on the same latitude as Oslo, Norway, the southern tip of Greenland and Seward, Alaska). St. Petersburg is the world's most northern city with a population over 1 million, and its stands at such a high latitude that the sun does not descend below the horizon enough for the sky to grow dark. In fact night becomes curiously indistinguishable from day, so much so that the authorities never need to turn the city's streetlights on!
