Taylor Swift is many things.
And whatever she’s wearing, fans have to have it.
Just like any famous icon, it took Swift a little while to find her groove with fashion.
Swift showed up to the ceremony in a relatively simple white dress with black detailing.
Swift’s makeup is noticeably minimal when compared to her later style, with no red lipstick in sight.
Instead, the singer kept it simple with mascara and a nude shiny lip.
And her outfit is just about as country as it gets.
For this live interview, Swift wore a chic black dress with ruffle detailing and sheer striped tights.
The color was also slightly more golden, indicating that Swift had taken a trip to the salon.
What’s more, her cosmetic preferences were also elevated.
However, when she was a youngster making her way in the industry, Swift stuck to neutral tones.
That began to change when she was convinced to try red lipstick at a 2009 photoshoot for Allure.
In 2011, Swift wore a little black dress to a Covergirl event.
The strapless number showed off her porcelain skin that was only accentuated by a bold lip and peachy blush.
Swift was still quite young, but her style was beginning to mature.
If you haven’t guessed already, Swift has never shied away from change.
In 2012, she kickstarted her “Red” era, as she dropped the album that year.
With that being said, these years were really important for Swift’s style, especially on stage.
Even so, we have to respect the fact that Swift has always played with fashion.
In 2014, she attended MTV’s Video Music Awards wearing a seriously short jumpsuit.
Make of that what you will!
By this point in her career, there was no stopping Swift.
Perhaps Swift’s most important accessory here is her attitude.
The album is named after Swift’s birth year, and she milked the aesthetic to the core.
Tom Cruise himself would have been envious!
By this point, she was a pro at switching it up.
Considering what was happening at the time, who could blame her?
She glowed like a fairy princess.
While this choice was reminiscent of some of her earlier looks, it brought a modern twist.
Once again, her style evolved to match the music she was releasing.
Her chainmail dress turned heads
By 2022, Taylor Swift was a fully-fledged adult in her 30s.
The peachy-fresh makeup look she wore just a couple of years prior was nowhere to be found.
Instead, Swift wore heavy winged liner and a blunt fringe.
Swift also won an award that night no, not for best dressed but for Best Artist.
The costume changes alone are enough to leave us breathless.
