When Taylor Swift wore one of Scottish designer Jade Robertson’s dresses, Robertson expressed amazement.
Taylor Swift, 34, showed off another ensemble from her Reputation period, wearing a green velvet Sweet Jane Olive minidress from Robertson’s Little Lies fashion label and $2,450 Jimmy Choo x Jean Paul Gaultier boots. Robertson, 34, said in an interview with The Times that she was just utterly shocked at first.
They were unaware that she even owned the dress. It turns out she’d actually placed the order for it herself. In reality, she had paid for and placed the order.
Robertson, who co-founded the Perth, Scotland-based online fashion brand in 2015 with her husband Stuart, described the excitement in their office when they heard about Swift’s decision.
Jade Robertson expressed her excitement
For Jade Robertson, yesterday was one of the most amazing days ever, she said. They were totally unaware that she even owned the dress because they had no prior knowledge. She actually bought and placed the order herself, so this wasn’t a PR or press gift scenario.
Nevertheless, because she assumed a false identity, their awareness was restricted. It was therefore shocking and exhilarating to realize that she was wearing their dress. The whole office was a flurry of excitement and happiness. According to Jade Robertson, their main source of joy was seeing an item from their brand that was inspired by music on a music icon; they were unaware of the possible consequences.
Following her recent wardrobe decision, which was influenced by her Reputation period, fans have speculated that Taylor Swift may be preparing to release the “Taylor’s version” of her 2017 studio album. This conjecture stems from her embracing a gothic look and using snake symbols, which are evocative of her look from the first Reputation album release.
Swift’s Sweet Jane Olive Mini Dress was made by Little Lies, a fashion brand, and they shared their happiness on Instagram. “Big moment for Little Lies waking up to see Taylor Swift has been photographed wearing our Sweet Jane Olive Mini Dress!” they wrote on Thursday.
Huge “aha” moment—she looks incredible, and we adore the way she styled it! To obtain Taylor’s look, register for a pre-order at Little-lies.com.” Swift was pictured wearing the dress in the post while dining at Brooklyn’s Lucali Pizza with friend Blake Lively.
Taylor Swift is Slithering Back Into Her Reputation Era
Prepare yourself for the return of Taylor Swift’s Reputation period! Swift’s devoted followers, referred to as Swifties, have been carefully interpreting the pop singer’s Easter eggs since the re-release of 1989 in October. All indications point to the 2017 chart-topping album Reputation being Swift’s next release.
Since many of Swift’s public appearances have reflected the goth aesthetics and snake symbols that typified the original Reputation era, this theory has gained momentum in recent months.
Reputation (Taylor’s Version), according to the 34-year-old Grammy winner, is almost here in her TIME 2023 Person of the Year cover story. “It’s a goth-punk moment of female rage at being gaslighted by an entire social structure,” she said, describing her upcoming record.
We’ve put on our detective caps in order to decipher the hidden meanings behind Swift’s new Reputation-inspired attire in light of this. Are you looking forward to what lies ahead?
Swift’s weekly outings in New York City have taken on the appearance of a weekly fashion show. On January 10, she wore what might be considered her most snake-inspired ensemble to date—a green velvet dress from Little Lies.
But it was her brown over-the-knee boots, a joint venture between Jean Paul Gaultier and Jimmy Choo, that stole the show online and set Swifties abuzz. Fans speculated about a possible “Reputation TV” return, pointing out the boots’ snakes and lettering. The discussion intensified on sites like X (formerly Twitter), where fans discussed the tattoo-style stilettos.
Swift chose to make a bold fashion statement at the 2024 Golden Globes, even though all of her previous eras were honored. Her concert film was nominated for both cinematic and box office achievements.
Swift, decked out in a slinky metallic green Gucci gown covered in scale-like sequins, exclaimed, “Reputation.” Even her donut-glazed nail extensions were scrutinized by fans, who saw them as talons—a novel choice for the artist.
Swift’s choice of sophisticated De Beers accessories was stunning as well, despite fans’ expectations that she would pair the glittery outfit with the $63 Mazin snake ring she wore during a girls’ night out with Selena Gomez, Sophie Turner, Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne, and Brittany Mahomes (think “Bad Blood” girl squad).
