As the anticipation for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour mounts, Sydney and Melbourne are abuzz with excitement. And for those lucky New Zealanders who’ve secured their tickets (and last-minute accommodation), the question on everyone’s mind is: “What to wear?”
The Eras Tour has evolved into more than just a concert—it’s also a style destination for Swifties to pay fashion homage to their pop idol. So, as you prepare to make your way to the stadiums, our fashion editors have curated an ultimate guide to help you and your friends craft or shop the perfect Taylor Swift outfits.
What are the best Taylor Swift outfits for a party or concert?
When dressing for the Eras Tour or a themed Taylor Swift party, the possibilities are as vast as Taylor’s discography. You could recreate one of her iconic looks from her many eras or perhaps a standout ensemble from a red carpet event.
If you’re unsure, some fail-safe options include cowboy boots and a Nashville t shirt paying homage to Taylor’s country music roots, paired with dazzling sequins to make the whole place shimmer. Friendship bracelets and shades of purple are also excellent choices, harking back to Taylor’s Midnights and Speak Now eras.
Fashion brands like The Iconic, Glassons, and Cotton On have risen to the occasion, curating collections of concert-appropriate attire that’ll make you shine brighter than the stage lights. And remember your shapewear for those sheer, sparkly outfits.
If your priority for the Eras Tour is comfort but you don’t want to compromise on style, we suggest a sparkly yet stretchy knit dress paired with sleek white sneakers. Trust us; Taylor would approve.
