Spinning like a girl in a brand-new dress, you’ve got your Taylor Swift tickets (jealous, us?) and you have just one big question left: what to wear to the Eras Tour? Here are some of our favourite looks, inspired by the different Taylor Swift Eras.
Taylor Swift Self-Titled
Sartorial vibe: big hair, saying ‘y’all’, fake tan, teenage emotions, country music, faded blue jeans, carrying a guitar everywhere but not in an annoying way. “When you think happiness, I hope you think “that little black dress.’”
Fearless
Sartorial vibe: Summer dresses, cowboy boots, curls, lots of bracelets, homemade t-shirts, ‘With you I’d dance, in a storm in my best dress, fearless’, ‘she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts’
Speak Now
Sartorial Vibe: GOWNS, fairytale vibes, purple, sequins, hormones, ‘The girl in the dress cried the whole way home/wrote you a song.’
Red
Sartorial Vibe: Long sequinned coats, top hats (inexplicably), red lipstick, red in general, autumn leaves, scarves, the black catsuit from her best performance ever, sequinned shorts, plaid shirts days (and nights).
1989
Sartorial vibe: blue, beaches, seagulls, 80s disco, synth keyboards, being a nightmare (dressed like a daydream). ‘Say you’ll remember me, standing in a white dress, staring at the sunset, babe,’ ‘I’ve got that good girl faith, in a tight little skirt’
Reputation
Sartorial vibe: Slinky, sexy, grown-up glitter, morning after the big party, snakessss, 1990’s grunge but Taylor, velvet, ‘I only bought this dress so you could take it off’.
Lover
Sartorial vibe: Rainbows, pastels, butterflies, pink, insane back tattoos, sequins (recurring), sunsets, Miss Americana, Christmas lights all year round, #girlboss blazers, astrology.
Folklore
Sartorial vibe: Vintage nightgowns, running through meadows, cardigans (obviously), rummaging through the dress-up box as a child, believing trees are sentient, anything Stevie Nicks, ‘Please, picture me, in the trees.’
Evermore
Sartorial vibe: Gingham, forest nymph, French braids, lace, Wicca, people who talk about the moon a lot, cloaks????
Midnights
Sartorial vibe: The third hour of a great party but also the comedown the morning after, 1970s, oversized layers, sequins (always?), a great smoky eye, bodysuits, a fun lil garter, “Best believe I’m still bejewelled, when I enter a room, I can still make the whole place shimmer.”
