Catherine D’lish custom corset

When I saw that Dita would be credited in a music video, I didn’t have much context in mind as to how it would happen or the circumstances — but I did suspect that the burlesque legacy’s iconic martini routine would somehow come into play. And oh did it.

This embellished corset with the bobbed hair and oversized earrings and necklace were possibly my favourite look of the video.

Michael Schmidt Studios custom ensemble

Inspired by designer Erté, Michael Schmidt Studios created a custom burlesque ensemble for Taylor in the “Bejeweled” video. The designer was introduced to the concept by one of the video’s stars – Dita Von Teese, naturally. The design house once famously created a 3D-printed dress for Dita back in 2013.

Pat McGrath ‘Mothership X: Moonlit Seduction Palette’ – $128.00 
Pat McGrath ‘LiquiLUST Legendary Matte Lipstick in Elson 4’ – $30.00
Pat McGrath ‘PermaGel Ultra Lip Pencil in Deep Dive’ – $29.00

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. And just like that instance, Pat used all the same components to pull off her dramatic beauty.

The use of sparkly appliqués beneath her brow to create an exaggerated winged effect also feels like a callback to that night.
