TAYLOR SWIFT STYLE – LOVER FEST

Halpern Fall 2019

  • ACOUSTIC SET
  • The Archer
  • Surprise Song
  • Cornelia Street
  • Death By A Thousand Cuts

Ugh. Truly … take my breath away. This jumpsuit is another beautifully structured bold but feminine piece that combines. It would be stunning under stage lights, it’s achingly fashun, and it looks like the colours of a sunset. If you’ll notice, I carefully crafted most of the tour’s costume choices to be centered on pinks and purples in order to flow and be consistent. But this … this is just so special. And beautiful. And memorable. I demand strappy heels only to be worn for this.

It also is appropriately one-shouldered and would leave her strumming hand free for her guitar playing.

TAYLOR SWIFT STYLE – LOVER FEST

Libertine Spring 2017 // M1992 Fall 2019 // Tommy Hilfiger Spring 2018

  • London Boy

Please imagine the cheesiest, most over-the-top and obscene reference to all things London for this. I need big production, big cheese, just …. all over the place. I need a caricature of Idris Elba riding a scooter blasted onto the big screens. I need Big Ben and double decker buses to hit me in the face during this performance. MAXIMUM CHEESE.

My imagined transition between “Holy Ground” to “London Boy” is Taylor proudly hinting that another place that she considers holy or having holy ground for her … is London. Bom bom.

You’ll also note here I’ve already included an obnoxious outfit heavily featuring the Union Jack which Taylor wore when the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was held in London. Imagine that, please. But better. And bigger. The outfit transition could also be as easy as putting a sequinned union jack duster over ACT V’s sequinned dress.

Naeem Khan Fall 2020

  • Gorgeous
  • I Think He Knows
  • Holy Ground

There’s always one per tour. Not to consider this a “throwaway” choice by any means, but a Taylor Swift tour really isn’t complete without a dress that looks pretty much precisely like this. Fringed, sequinned, colourful, short. Obviously styled for the stage without the thigh high boots that Naeem Khan included in their original runway styling and instead a pair of heeled ankle boots or sandals. This was the perfect dress choice for a set of fun, upbeat, flirty, happy songs.

Bibhu Mohapatra Fall 2020

  • PIANO SET
  • Lover
  • Daylight/Red (mashup)
  • All Too Well

While this wasn’t my personal favourite lewk from this collection, I couldn’t ignore the similarity this gown has to the pink caped gown she wore while sitting at the piano during her American Music Awards Artist of the Decade performance. This was such a huge moment for Taylor in her career and the gown feels like a nice nod to an accomplishment she got to have under her belt during the Lover era. Appropriately, I of course selected it for a dedicated piano moment during the setlist. Sans gloves, this would be a beautiful seated look for her.

P.S. Yes please be prepared to be emotionally distraught over the Daylight/Red mashup we deserve as well as the inclusion of fan favourite “All Too Well” which I thought was appropriate to include here given Taylor’s deference for playing it live this past era and her own admittance that through the gift of time and fans embracing this song, it no longer feels sad for her to play. But instead feels joyous and makes her associate the song with so many beautiful, happy memories. I think that’s been a big part of what Lover has also been about: Embracing that which previously hurt you and feeling grateful for what makes you feel loved in the now.

TAYLOR SWIFT STYLE – LOVER FEST

Alexander McQueen Resort 2020

  • Style
  • False God
  • Afterglow

As promised, suits will be incorporated into a few looks for my Lover Fest predictions. This one is one of my favourites. It’s mature, it’s sultry, it would have amazing movement on stage, and it incorporates a tiny punch of Lover-esque colour while still being refined and sexy — appropriate for this trio of songs for which she would perform while wearing it. I even love the two-toned heels also seen here in the original McQueen styling. 

On that note, Taylor typically works with one shoe brand for the majority of her footwear tour choices. My bets for Lover Fest would be either Kat Maconie (Taylor wore several of her colourful, quirky heels in the early days of promoting the album) or Stella McCartney, an obvious choice given their capsule collaboration for the album’s release.
