’Stuart Weitzman ‘Vidaland Boot’ – $995.00’

Two main things of note with these (incredible) OTK boots.

As noted by the distinctive tie at the back and confirmed to me by the brand these are Stuart Weitzman boots. While Taylor has worn this brand many times over the years, for me they have an unshakeable place solidly in the 1989 Era for their sponsorship of that album’s associated tour and providing many a heel for Taylor to strut in on the 1989 Tour stage. Which feels appropriate given the recent release of 1989 (Taylor’s Version).

Secondly, what I find so fun to watch regarding Taylor’s game day fashion evolution has been observing her growing confidence and power as she grows more comfortable entering these football stadiums as guest and watcher. Her first foray saw her in casual denim shorts and sneaker – unassuming and laidback and sweet. To me, opting for a big coat (wintry weather aside) and tall black leather boots feels powerful and sure. It evokes a voluminous and large presence that cannot be ignored and demands to be seen.

Cartier ‘Agrafe Herringbone Twisted Necklace’ – $27,250.00

This now marks yet another occasion where Taylor is using her beloved vintage Cartier necklace as a standout jewelry piece to really pop against a black base.

Since acquiring it in May when she debuted it with a simple, black jersey tank dress, she’s also worn it over a high neck LBD and coat in New York. For this occasion, it really stands out against her high neck black top and framed by that vibrant red teddy coat.

Stella McCartney ‘Belted Teddy Coat’ – $2,400.00

It’s very fun as we progress deeper into football season that, by extension, we get to see Taylor’s game day fashion change to reflect the actual seasons of the time as well. As a result, we get to see her rocking on-brand Chiefs red via her outerwear like this cozy teddy coat by Taylor go-to Stella McCartney.

The rest of her outfit was sleek and minimal black. The choice to go with a bun also felt like a wise one for me to let the mockneck of her top and the volume of her coat have room to breathe and occupy most of the visual look.

Anita Ko ‘Large Pear Diamond Drop Earrings’ – $32,150.00
Anita Ko ‘Quinn Graduated Pear Diamond Drop Earrings’ – $13,500.00
Anita Ko ‘Triangle Eternity Ear Cuff’ – $3,850.00
Anita Ko ‘Diamond Twist Ring’ – $10,625.00
Anita Ko ‘Princess Eternity Ring’ – $4,775.00

To coordinate with her silver metallic look, it only made sense for Taylor to stack on the white gold jewelry. Since adding a few new lobe piercings to hear ears in August (two in the right, one in the left) this is her first red carpet appearance that changes out her stack.

All her jewelry was courtesy of Anita Ko who Taylor has worn on a number of red carpet appearances since 2022 including this year’s MTV VMAs and iHeartRadio Awards. Another fun crossover moment? Anita Ko also provided jewelry for last year’s 2022 MTV EMAs – the last time that the Giuseppe Zanotti heels Taylor wears here were worn.

Giuseppe Zanotti ‘Lilibeth Slingback Stiletto Sandals’ – $750.00

As a lover of the minimalist sandal, these peep toe slingbacks by Giuseppe Zanotti were a win for me – but I did briefly wonder why she may have opted for something black instead of a coordinating silver metallic to match her dress. My suspicion is these were chosen to match the lining we see on the dress and blend in nicely to let the “mirrorball” aspect of the gown be the star of the show.

Balmain custom

When it became apparent that Taylor was going to repay the favour Beyoncé did her by also appearing at the ‘Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé’ London premiere, it felt all but certain she would appear in an appropriate #RenaissanceSilver gown – and oh did she deliver.

I personally have a soft spot for a column gown and the clean, elegant silhouette it offers. One of my previous all time favourite Taylor red carpets happens to be a silver metallic column gown (the Gucci Première gown of the 2014 Grammys).

Where that Grammys look was styled almost sweetly with a ponytail, soft smoky eyes, and a pink nude lip – this take on a silver gown brings more Hollywood glam thanks to the deep side part, sexy waves, and bold red lip. To my eye, it actually feels like a great continuation of the retro glam girl aesthetic we first were served at the outset of the Midnights era – which feels appropriate given the release of “You’re Losing Me” doesn’t it?

The gown also contains references to Balmain’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection, as seen in the rosette detail on the left bust and strap. Olivier Rousteing, creative director of Balmain, said that the floral motif throughout the collection was to deepen the house and its identity with French luxury. “These roses have thorns, you know?” he said. “The Balmain rose cannot just be a romantic rose. There is also toughness and strength. So it’s about love, it’s about colors, happiness and joy. But it’s also about torment! Just because you are tormented it doesn’t mean you need to do a black collection.” It’s very Swiftian.

Of course, as per usual – Taylor thinks of everything when it comes to selecting the designer to bring a look to life. Balmain having played a pivotal role in many of Beyoncé’s looks that she wore on the Renaissance World Tour. What a thoughtful homage to create that design crossover that beautifully pays respect to the many silver custom looks Bey wears on her stage while still feeling entirely Taylor. Very well played.

Gant ‘240 Mulberry Street Coat’ – coming soon

It’s always helpful (though a mild style faux pas) when Taylor leaves a label on to make identification a little bit easier. (Note that now is a great time to check – and remedy – if the label sleeves and tacking stitches on your coat vents are intact).

This particular navy coat comes from Gant’s Spring/Summer 2024 offerings (set for release in February) as part of their 240 Mulberry Street capsule collection. The brand so dubbed it as an homage to their creative headquarters in NYC, its storefront is also thoughtfully etched into the buttons of this coat.

A new-to-her brand, Taylor has been wearing a lot of Gant’s stunning coats as of late. This coat marks the second time she’s opted for something from their men’s line. It’s anticipated retail price will be about $800USD.

As always, I love when Taylor plays in sharp contrasts: Fabrics, proportions, price points. Here, it’s the interplay between sweet and girlish pieces like a white flouncy dress or schoolgirl-esque loafers with an oversized literally borrowed-from-the-boys jacket that gives the whole thing a chic, prep school vibe.

Saint Laurent ‘Cassandra Medium Shoulder Bag’ – $2,895.00

The history behind the ‘YSL’ Cassandra line is an interesting one – it’s actually named after Adolphe Mouron Cassandre, the man who designed the iconic ‘YSL’ logo seen here on the bag’s front.

A part of me can’t help but wonder if Taylor felt kinship to a bag that also shared a name with Cassandra, of Greek myth fame who was doomed to utter prophecies that no one would believe. The poetry of that possibility really strikes me as it feels almost assured that the next (Taylor’s Version) re-record release will be reputation – an album that of course has roots in a famed phone call gone wrong where Taylor told the truth and no one believed her. Too stretchy? Or totally plausible? Would love your thoughts!

Regardless, I love the sleek lines and chain detailing on this bag. But what I love most – if my eyes aren’t deceiving me – is this gorgeous green leather colour.
