The Eras Tour | 1989 section | Version 2

If you follow the TSSQ blog then you know I have an ongoing tag dedicated to me live reacting to Taylor in green. Needless to say that tag was popping off yesterday when Taylor swapped out her original pink co-ord set for the 1989 section of her setlist for this gree(eeeeeeeeeeee)n one. And matching booties, natch.

I don’t think I need to elaborate further that this set is my clear favourite between the two.

Doesn’t she just look like the happiest string bean in green?

Another moment where a throwback to previous style was going to be an easy win. There’s nothing like a matching crop top and skirt with sparkle booties to evoke the 1989 Tour. Fausto Puglisi did an incredible job with the unique diamond-shaped Swarovski work here.

Rather than look backward and pay homage to RED and its TV in honour of her SOTY nomination for “All Too Well (10 Minute Version)”, Taylor went with a more Midnights-appropriate look at the Grammys.

This midnight navy colour is beautiful on Taylor – a hue she rarely wears. Combined with the starry night embellishments, the looks feels appropriate to the late night theme of Midnights. I think I could envision this as a gown with side cut outs and a slit – or with a completely open back. With the current silhouette, the reference to the co-ordinating sets and crop tops of the 1989 era immediately came to my mind.

I would have loved to have seen the hood (as pictured in the original Fausto Puglisi-designed sketch) but am not mad by its omission to instead commit to a high wattage, statement earring moment. Continuing to prove that styling can really make or break a look.

The slightly mussed, twisted bun was a nice way to counterbalance all the sharp lines of the ensemble. See those strong shoulders, the geometric earrings, the horizontal slice of her torso. An updo was definitely needed with that high neck but it was a great choice to give a little looseness and her makeup was so well-coordinated to the rest of the look.

Worn with: Lorraine Schwartz earrings and rings and Giuseppe Zanotti heels

Mural Announcement | Nashville, TN | April 25, 2019

Rococo Sand ‘Embellished Plissé Crop Top’ – $220.00 (off white)
Rococo Sand ‘Embellished Plissé Mini Skirt’ – $220.00 (off white)

Taylor stunned a crowd in Nashville wearing a beautiful and floaty off-the-shoulder set by Rococo Sand. Pictured is the same print in a dress. A version of the set can be seen here

I’m in love with the colour, the subtle additions of butterflies, and the breezy beachy silhouette. What I’m most intrigued by is the obvious nod to the 1989 era, which was a period in Taylor’s fashion career most defined by matching co-ord sets. 

This post will be updated as I receive further information from the brand. 

Worn with: Jennifer Meyer ring and Stuart Weitzman sandals

Get the look: Susana Monaca top + skirt | Anna Nata top + skirt | Free The Roses top + skirt
