Erdem Spring 2023
I’ve seen many people compare this particular moment to a similar angle and facial expression from the “Blank Space” music video. And there is a certain housewife about to break vibe that you one can take away from this quick scene. But what I love the most is that, unlike the maneater parodizing of “Blank Space”, her world here is herself alone – in the comforting warmth and love of a cat.

Versace ‘Embellished Harness Top’ (similar)
Beyond the eye-grabbing visuals of the video and some of the camp and cheek, there also feels like a lot to emotionally unpack here (in particular, this ‘Hourglass’ section and the ‘Lightbulb’ section). Taylor has spoken on numerous occasions about the passage of time and what it means for her and her place in the industry as a ‘geriatric’ pop star. One need not look further than “Nothing New” to see for how long she’s harboured deep thoughts and anxieties about her relevancy in the industry and longevity in her career.
Here, it’s fascinating to think not just from the ‘karmic’ perspective of time always coming back around (for her benefit) but also to think about time slipping away from her while also experiencing one of the greatest highs (yet) in her work.

Akaila Reid ‘Pavé Mini Hoops with Medium Pink Opal Drop’ – $8,740.00
A part of me is wondering if this is a cheeky reference to Glinda’s bubble.

Faiccia ‘Green Leaf Beret’ – $17.99
What sets Taylor’s version of Dorothy apart is a jaunty yellow wool beret.

Christian Louboutin ‘Vernica 55 Patent Leather Pumps’ – $971.00
These mirrored Louboutins are a fresh update on Dorothy’s signature ruby red slippers. If you’re particularly eagle eyed, you may also remember this pair from the “IBYTAM” music video.

La Roxx custom
On the (literal) flip side, for her Persephone, Queen of the Underworld look Taylor layers herself in gold jewelry (belts are vintage) and black drapery.

Versace ‘Medusa Chain Link Necklace’ – $855.00
You may recognize this thick gold chain from when Taylor wears it during her usual Night 2 costume variation on the Eras Tour.
