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.

Clearly inspired by the glittery seamless jumpsuit into bootie outfits we saw Taylor perform this song in on tour, Taylor brought out a backless and contrast side mesh black jumpsuit to open up this year’s Grammys.

Taylor spends most of her time on tour in a pair of Stuart Weitzmans, wearing four different styles of the brand throughout her 11 costume change. However, she relies on the sturdiness of her five customized 4″ ‘Gran’ boots the most.

Taylor’s corset and lace dress is by Greg Lauren. I really dig the rocker chick vibe from this look and it’s almost a sexier, five shots in a bar grown up version of her “All Too Well” RED Tour look. 

Taylor customized her Les Paul by forgoing the pickguard and identification plates on the headstock as well as refinishing it in a sparkle red colour.
