Speak Now Tour Wardrobe [3/9]
“Back To December”/”Apologize”/”You’re Not Sorry”
- Marchesa – Custom made
Some back story on this ensemble:
If you’re wondering why this Marchesa gown is custom-made, here’s a rundown. In the special 60 Minutes conducted on Taylor they did a behind-the-scenes look of her Speak Now Tour. In this video (@ 2:53) you can see Taylor running under the stage in this dress to get onto the platform that rises up with her piano to play “Back To December.” Unlike during her performance where she strictly keeps her entire right side exposed to the audience and doesn’t get up from her bench or move, this shot of Taylor running is taken from her left side. You can see the way Taylor’s Marchesa gown is loosely buttoned together and underneath her gown is the bright red sequin dress she wears for “Better Than Revenge.”
Immediately after “Back To December” ends during the show, the lights are cut and Taylor gets up from the bench, rips off her gown and gets onto the extending floating bridge she, Caitlin and Liz dance on for “Better Than Revenge.”
So if you, like me, were disappointed we didn’t get any on-stage costume changes (like we did from the Fearless Tour), feel a little better knowing that technically there was one. =)
