Taylor Swift goes high/low pairing a $20,000 Valentino dress with $95 under $100 pair of Melinda Maria earrings in "Patient Zero" music video.

Worn On: 9/27/26

the commentary

At the VMAs, Taylor debuted the video for “Patient Zero” - the lead off The Life of a Showgirl deluxe re-release titled The Encore and another one of her self-directed projects where a ghostly Taylor - dressed in the luxe and neutral-filled silks, satins, and flowing garments we saw her fashion lean into in the spring - haunts every scene.

Call this a designer high/low! Taylor has worn many pieces in the past by Melinda Maria - both she and Dakota twin in them in this “reflected light” scene from the video. It’s an under $100 balancing point with her designer gown by Valentino (featuring one of my design faves: bows!).
