Like we were (new outfits) in Paris! After about four fortnights off, Taylor brought the Eras Tour back for its European leg in France. And with this new leg comes a handful of setlist changes... and, more importantly, costume changes.

During the RED set I wasn’t just confused because it was the first set to have moved from its original spot in the setlist, but Taylor’s new shirt saying took me aback.

There’s a part of me playing between two potential reads on the new silhouette (and designer) of the surprise song dresses.

I’m not quite sure what outing Taylor wore this LBD for while out in Las Vegas (after party, out to dinner, another event) but what I do know is this is a very important designer.

I’m sure somewhere locked inside my brain are smarter words to say about this dress but the only one I can summon up is greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen.

One of my favourite parts of the album listening experience is, of course, the new set of visuals that come with it. And oh swoon is this one ever beautiful.

To my ears (and still overwhelmed brain feeling like I’ve absorbed an encyclopedia of words across these 31 songs) this is an album for ‘Swiftie scholars’ who have the time, space, and devotion to wade through the heaviness of an album this dense and complicated.

From the colour, the neckline, the swooping cutouts, and the fringe — you’d be forgiven if you blinked and thought you were transported to the 1989 Tour.
