With the official release of Taylor Swift’s “Life of a Showgirl” album comes new promotional photos.
And, a few in particular have caught our eye.
In true showgirl-inspired fashion, we’ve been given the gift of not one, but two photos of Swift in metallic chainmail dresses that fit perfectly into her latest showgirl era.
In one image, Swift sits on a room service cart, leaning against the wall with her foot up on the wall across from her.
The micro-mini chainmail halter dress is totally sheer, paired with nude fishnet tights and embellished stiletto heels from Jimmy Choo.
In another image, Swift strikes a similar position, this time seated on the floor and leaning against a bed.
Wearing a similar halter chainmail dress, Swift this time opts for pink-toned iridescence, complete with a fringe hem (for dancing purposes, of course … ).
Designer Kelsey Randall confirmed on her Instagram account early this morning that she had crafted the dresses, writing, “It has truly been the honor of my career to design for my favorite artist!”
You, too, can dress like Taylor.
The first look is a standard custom order on Randall’s website for $3,495. The second was fully Taylor customized, though, available for her closet only.
Swift leans into her album themes with true dedication, featuring several barely there metallic looks, bustiers, and fringe skirts that catch the light throughout her album promotion and beyond.
She did, however, wear a very different kind of chainmail dress to the 2014 Grammys, donning a long, short-sleeved Gucci gown for the event. Was she perhaps dipping her toe into the new character-to-be?
More recently, Swift opted for a more sheer and modern version of the trend at the 2022 MTV Europe Music Awards, feeling more confident in her edgier look from David Koma, and took to the stage in 2023 wearing an allover paillette mini from Paco Rabanne.
We can’t wait to see more of “Showgirl” Taylor Swift as album release day continues.
