2013 Met Costume Institute Gala | May 6, 2013

J. Mendel custom gown

As a guest of the designer and long-time wearer of the brand, Taylor unsurprisingly wore a J Mendel gown to tonight’s MET Costume Gala. What was surprising was how effectively Taylor took to the ‘PUNK: Chaos to Couture’ theme for tonight’s gala. 

Vamped, teased up hair — I spy a super cute pink streak! — edgy cut outs with cobweb lace, smoky eyes and a dark mani all add up to a punked out look.

I’m really glad Taylor showed up to the event this year since she missed out in 2012 — her 2011 J Mendel look is still one of the most memorable in my mind!

Thoughts on Taylor’s look, TSS-ers?

Worn with: Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, J. Mendel clutch and Givenchy sandals

This night’s theme, as the original caption states, was “Punk: Chaos to Couture”. I think the words I wrote seven (!!!) years ago still hold true here. The cute pink streak, darker eye makeup and manicure, gown cutouts and cobweb lace all create a darker look that’s still classically Taylor pretty. An underrated example of Taylor conforming well to the theme and still managing to look like herself.

2014 Met Costume Institute Gala | May 5, 2014

Oscar de la Renta custom gown

As revealed earlier today by Taylor herself on Twitter, she stepped out onto the red carpet wearing a custom pink gown featuring allover embellishments by Oscar de la Renta.

While the front featured a simple a-line silhouette, the real drama came from the dress’ long, sculptured train.

As with many of the gowns from tonight, I feel a little letdown by the dress. Taylor looks lovely, as usual, and I like the glossy but textured waves of her hair, her glowing, dewy skin and the way the bodice creates a deep cut in the back. However, this won’t go down as one of my favourite looks from her.

I’m at least glad to see Meredith didn’t rip it to shreds during the final fitting.

Update (Feb. 15): You can actually purchase an unembellished version of Taylor’s gown via My Theresa here for $8645.

Worn with: Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, Edie Parker clutch and Christian Louboutin pumps

Probably her most beloved (by the fandom) and well-known attendance of the Met Gala. Taylor revived this look in the “Look What You Made Me Do” music video

It is not my favourite Met Gala appearance for Taylor but she did execute the theme that year (“Charles James: Beyond Fashion”) beautifully. The night called for princess ball gowns, structure, and old school elegance. The architectural train and classic gown silhouette met that criteria well. 

I think my favourite part of this appearance was the glowing makeup and hair which were both perfect.

2016 Met Gala | New York City, NY | May 2, 2016

Louis Vuitton Custom

She. Has. Arrived. 

Following her appearance last night in the brand and given that her date tonight is Selena Gomez, it all finally comes together and makes sense for Taylor to wear custom Louis Vuitton to the Met Gala. 

The shoes, hair, shoes, makeup, and (oh yeah did I mention) SHOES all scream fierce to me – I just wish I loved the dress just as much. 

What do you think of Taylor in Louis Vuitton?

Worn with: Eva Fehren + Massia Cielo earringsEva Fehren + Borgioni rings and Louis Vuitton sandals

Shop Taylor’s look for less:

!function(doc,s,id){ var e, p, cb; if(!doc.getElementById(id)) { e = doc.createElement(s); e.id = id; cb = new Date().getTime().toString(); p = ‘//shopsensewidget.shopstyle.com/widget-script.js?cb=1479547589218?cb=’ + cb; e.src = p; doc.body.appendChild(e); } if(typeof window.ss_shopsense === ‘object’){ if(doc.readyState === ‘complete’){ window.ss_shopsense.init(); } } }(document, ‘script’, ‘shopsensewidget-script’);

TSS QUARANTINE FLASHBACKS

As I’m sure many of you know today — Monday, May 4 — was supposed to be night for the annual fashion affair known as the Met Gala. Taylor has attended this fashionable event and adhered to the evening’s theme on six previous occasions. 

Today, we take a look back on those times with fresh eyes and fresh commentary. 

— 

Her most recent and her most contentious attendance of the Met Gala. The theme that evening was “Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology” and Taylor served as co-chair for the evening alongside Idris Elba and Jonathan Ive. 

I will always be partial to how much better this look fared with the Louis Vuitton coat Taylor layered on top of this custom dress when leaving her New York apartment en route to the event.

The hair, the makeup, the boots all work in conjunction to deliver a significantly more edgy look than what Taylor would normally be used to. I think others that night executed the event’s fashion technology theme better than this (Claire Danes was the obvious winner of the night, imo). 

If I had to improve the look I think changing the ruffled tiers into a simple bodycon silhouette, nixing the cutouts and instead executing some kind of interesting, forward-thinking laser cutout situation on the back would have tied into the theme well.
