taylor swift red eras tour hat

Screen Rant

Who taylor swift gives the "22" hat to in the eras tour movie (tragic backstory explained).

There's an emotional backstory behind the recipient of Taylor Swift's hat during her performance of the song "22" in The Eras Tour concert movie.

• In The Eras Tour movie, Taylor Swift gave the "22" hat to the late Kobe Bryant's 6-year-old daughter, Bianka Bryant.
• Swift's personal connection to Kobe before his and Gianna's tragic passing adds a deeper meaning to Bianka's special moment, reflecting the pop star's close relationship with the Bryant family over the years.
• The recipient of the "22" hat at Swift's concerts does not usually have a personal connection to her, but the gesture is always heartfelt.

The tragic backstory behind the recipient of the "22" hat in the Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour concert movie makes the moment even more special. Filmed over the course of the first three shows at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium on the Eras Tour in August 2023, The Eras Tour movie brought Swift's showstopping concert experience to the big screen. Divided into ten separate sections, The Eras Tour concert features almost every Taylor Swift era of her lengthy music career, including the Red era.

At every show on The Eras Tour, one lucky fan is selected to receive the hat that Swift wears while performing "22" from her fourth studio album, Red . The fan is brought to the edge of the stage, where Swift kneels down and places the black fedora on their head before giving the Swiftie a big hug. It's always a touching moment at every show, but the one "22" hat recipient from Swift’s taped L.A. shows who was included in The Eras Tour movie is extra special because of her family's personal history and relationship with the pop star.

9 Ways Watching Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour On Disney+ Will Be Different From Theaters

Taylor swift gives the 22 hat to bianka bryant, the 6-year-old daughter of kobe bryant, taylor swift has maintained a close relationship with the late kobe bryant's family.

In The Eras Tour movie, Swift gives the "22" hat to the late Kobe Bryant's then 6-year-old daughter, Bianka Bryant. Bianka, who is now 7, attended The Eras Tour with her mother, Vanessa Bryant, and her sisters, Natalia and Capri, at SoFi Stadium on August 3, 2023. It was an especially sweet gesture on Swift's part to give Bianka the "22" hat since the popstar had a close relationship with the little one's father before his tragic death. On January 26, 2020, Kobe, 41, and his 13-year-old daughter Gianna tragically passed away in a helicopter crash.

Prior to the NBA legend's untimely death, Swift and Kobe were well-acquainted. Their friendship dates back to 2015 when Kobe joined Swift onstage for the first of her five stops at the Staples Center (now the Crypto.com Arena) on her 1989 Tour to present her with a "championship" banner commemorating her record-breaking 16 sold-out shows at the arena over the course of her career. Kobe also spoke highly of Swift in a 2019 interview on The Jordan Harbinger Show , and they've both shown mutual love and respect for one another's drive and success over the years.

At the Eras Tour, Vanessa donned a jacket with an image of Kobe and Swift onstage that night at the Staples Center.

Knowing Swift's history with the Bryants before and after the family's heartbreaking tragedy, Bianka's "22" hat moment takes on a much deeper and even more special meaning.

Since Kobe and Gigi's passing, Swift has remained close with the Bryant family. Vanessa posted a photo on Instagram of her and her daughters posing backstage with Swift (in which Bianka is wearing the "22" hat) with the caption, "Always love." Natalia also posted a picture of her and Swift at the Eras Tour along with a throwback photo of them from the 1989 era with the caption, "Now & Then with @taylorswift." Knowing Swift's history with the Bryants before and after the family's heartbreaking tragedy, Bianka's "22" hat moment takes on a much deeper and even more special meaning.

When Taylor Swift Goes Back On The Eras Tour & How Many Dates Are Left

How taylor swift typically chooses who gets the 22 hat in her eras tour concerts, the "22" hat recipient doesn't always have a personal connection to swift.

Of course, Bianka was specifically selected as the "22" hat recipient at the Eras Tour show she attended (and was likely planned to be included in Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour ahead of time) because of Swift's connection to the Bryants. Swift has also given the "22" hat to other young attendees she knows personally, such as her best friend Selena Gomez's 10-year-old sister, Gracie, who attended the final show of the first leg on August 8, 2023, at SoFi Stadium. Though it's not always a little girl like Bianka and Gracie, the recipient is usually on the younger side.

Most of the time, Swift's team seems to simply pluck one lucky fan out of the crowd to come up to the stage and participate in the special "22" moment.

However, Swift doesn't always give the "22" hat to someone she knows. Most of the time, Swift's team seems to simply pluck one lucky fan out of the crowd to come up to the stage and participate in the special "22" moment. That said, some selections don't appear to be completely random, such as Mikael Arellano, the TikTok creator behind the viral dance to Swift's song "Bejeweled." Swift actually incorporated the creator's moves into the official choreography of her "Bejeweled" performance during the Midnights era on the Eras Tour , so choosing to give Arellano the hat was no doubt intentional.

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour is a film rendition of the colossal worldwide event that sees the legendary pop star hit the stage in a specially curated film event. Performing the hits of her over seventeen-year career in music, The Eras Tour highlights Taylor Swift and her team as they put on a show of a lifetime.

Getting the "22" Hat at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour Is a Huge Honor, but It Isn't Easy

Would you rather get the "22" hat or trade bracelets with Taylor? You can actually do both if you get picked. Make sure you're prepared!

PUBLISHED Feb. 27 2024, 10:38 p.m. ET

The Eras Tour feels like it will never end and, for Taylor Swift fans, that's a dream. If you're looking to go to the tour any time soon, you should be prepared for a lot of little traditions, intricacies, and new happenings at this unique show.

Throughout the three-hour set, Taylor goes through most of the eras in her life and even adds in a few surprise songs. Fair warning: She doesn't even touch her debut era, so don't get your hopes up. However, the Red era has one of the most exciting and adorable moments.

How do they pick who gets the "22" hat at the Eras Tour?

I don't know about you, but we're feeling like we want the "22" hat! If you don't know, Taylor's stint through her Red era includes a little bit of crowd interaction.

As she's performing her hit song, Taylor breaks away from her dancers and heads to the end of her catwalk stage. Waiting there is a hopeful fan who is typically filled with a lot of excitement as the pop star takes a hat off her own head and hands it to them.

There's often quite a few tears spilt and the fan will sometimes hand Taylor a friendship bracelet. Fans will hug Taylor and get the chance to exchange a few quick words before she needs to head back to finish out the song and her choreography.

Now, that sounds like every fans dream, so how does Taylor decide? The truth is that she doesn't typically have much say in who she hands the hat off to. In the crowd at every show, Taylor has little spies who are actually just members of her management team and known as Taylor Nation.

Most of the time, they'll find a fan at random in the crowd who seems to be very excited and enthused. Basically, they're looking for someone who definitely loves Taylor and wasn't just dragged there by their Swiftie best friend.

Leading up to the Red set, they'll ask the individual to follow them and will be led down into the right section. During "Long Live," they'll hang out there until it's time for "22."

It's not always a random fan, though. There have definitely been moments that either Taylor or who team have preselected someone to receive the gift. Sometimes this will be someone active on social media who has made an impact on the fandom in some way.

One time, Taylor handed the hat off to Kobe Bryant's daughter. Special moments like this truly elevated the event as a whole and keeps fans feeling connected to their favorite artist.

If you're looking to get picked, just know that the odds are low and there isn't much you can do to win over Taylor Nation. The only advice that we can give is to potentially post a photo from your seats on Twitter and include your seat numbers for Taylor Nation to potentially see.

In the past, this is how fans would get randomly selected to meet Taylor after the show. However, the Reputation Room meet-and-greet has become a thing of the past. For now, all we have left is the hope to be handed the "22" hat.

By Jon Blistein

Taylor Swift graciously bestowed her honorary Red -era fedora to Kobe and Vanessa Bryant ’s daughter, Bianka, during her Eras Tour show in Los Angeles Thursday night, Aug. 3.

Video of the incredibly sweet moment was shared widely on social media, with Taylor meeting Bianka side stage at the end of “22,” giving her a hug and placing the hat — designed by Gladys Tamez — on her head. Vanessa Bryant shared a photo of the hug on Instagram as well, writing in the caption, “We love you @taylorswift ❤️”

Have You Ever Wondered How Taylor Swift Chooses Who Gets The ‘22’ Hat On The Eras Tour? Lucky Fans Shared Their Stories

Taking notes.

Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has many traditions. The pop star always plays two surprise songs at every show, she always dives into the stage for a costume change, and she always gives her black hat to a fan during “22.” There are tens of thousands of fans in the stadium during a given concert, so being the “Lucky One” chosen to be gifted Swift’s hat is almost impossible. So, how does the singer’s team choose the person who gets the famous hat? Let’s break it down.

How Taylor Swift Chooses Who Gets The “22” Hat According To One Young Fan

Like the lil Swiftie pictured above, Grace DelVecchio is a 12-year-old girl from Yorktown, New York, who was picked out of the crowd to receive the “Red” singer's hat during "22." Her family told a local Yorktown publication, TapInto Yorktown, that the moment was actually "a long time coming." DelVecchio has a special story, and she has loved Swift for years. When the family was fortunate to snag tickets to the Era’s Tour, the 12-year-old’s speech pathologist, Jenn Sparano, looked for a way for DelVecchio to meet the Midnights artist. She said:

I started reaching out to different background dancers. I was emailing the Taylor Swift PR team. I was messaging Taylor Swift. But I obviously didn’t hear back from anyone.

While she may not have heard from Swift’s team, the New York Post found DelVecchio’s story that Sparano posted on Facebook, and published an article about it. Still, there was no word from the Swift camp. 

That all changed when security found the young girl and her father during the concert and brought her to the front of the stadium for a special moment. She was brought to the front, and the Grammy winner handed DelVecchio her hat, which she now keeps in a shadow box. Reflecting on the moment the special gal said: 

I was shaking, I was so nervous to see her. It made me feel special.

That is such a remarkable moment and clearly, the campaigning worked. I’m sure the process for choosing someone to keep the hat is slightly different for every show, but this is some great insight into how moments like these come to fruition. Swift often chooses very young fans to receive her hat, making for an adorable picture-perfect memory that the fan will likely never forget. 

Sometimes People Swift Knows Personally Get The “22” Hat

While the majority of the “22” hat recipients come from the crowd and are kids who idolize Swift, sometimes the singer bestows part of her costume on someone she knows personally. 

For example, when Swift’s bestie Selena Gomez brought her 9-year-old sister Gracie to a show, that’s who the pop star gave her hat to.

Also, when the Eras Tour was in LA, Swift gave her hat to Kobe Bryant’s daughter Bianka, as the “22” singer and the kiddo’s father were acquainted.

Ultimately, this emotional “22” moment is what ended up in Swift’s Eras Tour film to represent all the Swifties who have had the honor of receiving the hat. 

Swifties Who Are Prominent On Social Media Also Get The “22” Hat

Along with little Swifties and friends of the pop star getting the hat, the singer and her team will choose fans who are popular online. 

For example, the "Cruel Summer" singer notability gave her hat to 22-year-old TikTok star Mikael Arellano, who originated the viral dance to “Bejeweled” that Swift replicates in her choreography on tour, during one of her shows. 

Then, during her concerts in Australia, she gave a hat to the TikToker Oliver Mills, which you can see below:

@olivermillsn Heres two minutes of the most incredible moment in my life ♬ original sound - Oliver Mills

In another TikTok , he made it clear that he doesn’t want to reveal how he got the hat. However, in various videos, like the one below, you can gather other information about this sweet Eras Tour moment, like the fact that Swift signs all the hats she gives to fans:

While it may not seem like Swift is paying attention to fans who go above and beyond to show their love for her music, moments like this prove she is. The record-breaking recording artist has invited her most ardent fans to early listening parties for her albums in the past by finding them through social media. She has also sent merch boxes to some fans during Christmas time to show her love and appreciation. The “Anti-Hero” singer is clearly grateful for her fans, and she gives back however she can.

You can catch Taylor Swift on the worldwide Eras Tour for the rest of 2024. Fans of the pop princess unable to get tickets due to the infamous Ticketmaster fiasco , can still witness the magic of one of her stadium shows by streaming the Eras Tour with a Disney+ subscription starting on March 14.

Exactly How To Score Taylor Swift’s ’22’ Hat At The Eras Tour

Swifti e-mania has reached an all-time high this week, with the Australian leg of Taylor Swift ’s Eras Tour officially underway. 

While the almost one-year wait for the show to hit Australian shores has, admittedly, been excruciating at times, Australian Swifties have been fortunate to witness the tour take over the US, Latin America, and parts of Asia. 

As a result, we’re privy to many of the secret rituals that have become signatures of Eras shows, from mid-song chants to friendship bracelet exchanges and, of course, surprise songs. 

But arguably the most exciting portion of the Eras Tour takes place during the performance of ‘22’, when one lucky fan is plucked from the crowd, to be gifted a bowler hat by Taylor Swift herself. We’ve witnessed it happen countless times now (73 to be exact) so, naturally, fans are eager to understand how they can be the ‘22’ recipient at the remaining Australian shows .

For everything you need to know about Taylor Swift ’s ‘22’ hat ritual, keep reading. 

Who Has Been Given Taylor Swift’s ‘22’ Hat?

Typically, the ‘22’ hat is given to a young concert-goer. While they certainly don’t have to be famous, the hat has gone to some well-known names, including Bianka Brant, Kobe and Vanessa Bryant’s daughter, and Selena Gomez’s younger sister Gracie . 

Last week, 20-year-old TikToker Oliver Mills made headlines when he received the hat on night two of Swift’s Melbourne shows.

In a now-viral video posted to Mills’ TikTok account, Swift can be seen kneeling on the stage and handing him the hat, before saying, “I love your videos. You are so funny.”

@olivermillsn Single greatest moment of my life ♬ original sound – Oliver Mills

Remembering the once-in-a-lifetime moment, Mills told U SA Today , “When she walked towards me I thought, ‘You’re a real person and you have love and kindness in your eyes.’”

“For someone that famous to be that personally, individually connected to her fans is impossible. She’s really, really lovely.” 

On night two in Sydney, the hat went to Scarlett Oliver, 9, who is currently battling a brain tumour.

Oliver’s stepmum, Natalie, started a campaign in the lead up to the Sydney show, in the hopes that she would be awarded the coveted 22 hat. “Scarlett is a 9-year-old from Perth, and she was diagnosed in October last year with a high grade glioma — this is a very aggressive brain cancer with no cure,” she wrote on a fan page for Swift.

“The prognosis given to us was 12-18 months from diagnosis. She has been an absolute warrior through surgeries, radiation and other treatments (all done to try and prolong her life).”

She signed off the post, “I just want [Scarlett] to experience everything in life and if anyone deserves a little happiness it’s her. She deserves the world.”

On night three of the Sydney shows, the hat went to five-year-old Lily, who was chosen after she delivered a passionate speech about Taylor Swift at school.

In a now-viral clip posted by Lily’s mum to Faceoobk, she can be heard saying to her classmates: “People ask me all the time what I want to be when I grow up – a doctor? A teacher? But no, I want to be a singer like Taylor Swift.”

LILY GOT THE 22 HAT ❤️ pic.twitter.com/EfKCIn28jw — iya ★ (@hotmessjunk) February 25, 2024

How Do You Get Taylor Swift’s ‘22’ Hat?

Unfortunately for us, Mills is keen for the mystery surrounding the ‘22’ hat ritual to remain.  

“I love a bit of mystery surrounding Taylor Swift and the love that runs so deep so I’m going to place myself amongst the mystery,” he told USA Today .

There are, however, several theories floating around the internet as to how it all goes down.

“There have been rumours that it’s actually Mama Swift [ Taylor Swi ft’s mum ] who chooses who receives the 22 hat,” Michelle Hillier explained in a TikTok video. 

She went on to explain witnessing a little girl be whisked away by security during a show she attended last year. 

“About three or four songs in, [a security guard] came into our section and started dancing with us. She wasn’t regular security, she wasn’t dressed like security but you could tell she worked at the stadium. She started dancing with us, and then all of a sudden, she turned to the little girl and said… ‘Come with me.’”

She explained that the little girl (and her guardians) never returned to her original seat, and that she looked “exactly” like the girl who received the ‘22’ hat later in the concert. 

If this theory is correct, then the only thing you can do to increase your chances of receiving the hat is dance your heart out and genuinely enjoy the concert. An easy task, if you ask us.

Meet the LA designer behind Taylor Swift's '22' hat that's changing lives: 'It's been beautiful'

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Before Taylor Swift takes the stage during her highly anticipated "Eras Tour," you'll likely hear fans ask, "Who's going to get the hat tonight?"

During the first show of Swift's concert series at SoFi Stadium, the Grammy winner shared a special moment with Bianka Bryant, daughter of Kobe and Vanessa Bryant.

While performing her song "22," Swift gave the hat she was wearing to Bianka. The exchange quickly went viral online.

Giving the "22" hat to a fan during each live performance has become a tradition for the singer and the creator of those hats said it was an incredible honor to be part of such a tender moment.

"I woke up to that beautiful news, I was so excited because for me, I've been growing up watching Kobe, and it was so sad for me what happened," said Gladys Tamez, who runs Gladys Tamez Millinery in Los Angeles .

Tamez's hat design is worn by Swift every night. Swift's team reached out to the designer during the planning stage of the tour, needing enough hats to go around.

"I was like, 'Oh my God, how many? How are we going to do it? I had lots of questions, but I have the best materials ..."

She also has plenty of experience. Her designs have been worn by stars like Lady Gaga, Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus.

Tamez has always had love for her craft and through the "Eras Tour," she's been able to witness that love be shared with so many young, deserving fans across the country.

"It means a lot because with my designs, I've touched somebody's heart, you know? It's been beautiful."

A hat that for many Swifties, fits like an old song that you still know by heart or a new friend you feel you've known forever.

Here’s Everything Taylor Swift Wore and Sang During the Eras Tour Opening Night

By Emily Tannenbaum

Scoring a ticket to the Eras Tour may have felt like the eighth circle of hell , but it sounds like Taylor Swift's opening night was pure heaven on earth. 

On March 18, Swift kicked off the tour in Glendale, Arizona (a.k.a. Swift City ), performing for a crowd of 80,000 for the first time since her last tour in 2008. Celebrating all 10 of her albums—including the latest LP, Midnights —Swift's set included 44 songs, 16 backup dancers, and at least 13 outfit changes. According to People , the entire show lasted three hours and 13 minutes, which, of course, is the artist's favorite number. 

The trick to the quick change is keeping everything else simple, as Keira Knightley would agree . Throughout the entire night, Swift wore her hair straight, her eyeliner winged, and her lips her signature shade of red. Here's everything Taylor Swift wore and sang on the first night of the Eras Tour. Warning: Set list spoilers past this point.

According to Elle , Swift began with Lover , taking audiences through “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince,” “Cruel Summer,” “The Man,” “You Need to Calm Down,” “Lover,” and “The Archer.” To represent the album, People reports, Swift wore a sparkling Versace bodysuit before switching into a boardroom-approved sparkling suit jacket perfect for “The Man.” Personally, I'm drawn to her sparkling Christian Louboutin boots, which appeared multiple times throughout the night. 

For Fearless , Swift rocked a golden Alberta Ferretti fringe dress to perform “Fearless,” “You Belong With Me,” and “Love Story.” Baby, just say yes. 

Swift then opted for a sweet embroidered orange corset dress to perform multiple songs off Evermore for the first time live, including “’Tis The Damn Season,” “Willow,” “Marjorie,” “Champagne Problems,” and “Tolerate It.”

Perhaps the most interesting look Swift rocked, however, was the asymmetrical, half-leg bodysuit she changed into for her Reputation era. The pop star reportedly belted out “Look What You Made Me Do” in a black sequined ensemble covered in vibrant red snakes, which seem to reference her infamous feud with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West . 

By Jenn Barthole

In stark contrast, Swift referenced her sequined Valentino look from the Speak Now tour with a romantic gown by Nicole + Felicia, per People . “Enchanted,” indeed. 

Based on the photos, my favorite portion of the night came when Swift embraced her Red era. To start, she performed “22” in a new version of her sequined T-shirt from the 2013 music video , switching the text from “Not a lot going on at the moment” to “A lot going on at the moment.”

After passing her hat off to a fan , Swift removed the shirt to reveal a black and red sequined Ashish romper for “We Are Never Getting Back Together” and “I Knew You Were Trouble” before adding a matching long coat for the full 10-minute version of “All Too Well.”

Next came Folklore. Swift reportedly performed all seven of her chosen songs—“Invisible String,” “Betty,” “The Last Great American Dynasty,” “August,” “Illicit Affairs,” “My Tears Ricochet,” and “Cardigan”—in a dreamy lavender dress by Alberta Ferretti.

“A sort of a running theme in my music is that I love to explain to men how to apologize,” Swift told the crowd of “Betty.” “I just love it. It's kind of my thing. I love to tell them, step-by-step, here's how simple this is to fix things. If you just follow these easy steps that I'm laying out for you in a three-minute song…. Just love the idea of men apologizing.” 

For 1989, Swift kept things light and fun, performing “Style, “Blank Space,” “Shake It Off,” “Wildest Dreams,” and “Bad Blood” in a pink crystal skirt and top set by Roberto Cavalli. 

Swift followed up 1989 with an acoustic performance of “Mirrorball.” However, she told the audience she plans on switching things up for each show.

This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from.

Swift was dressed in a tiered magenta gown, which she kept on to sing “Tim McGraw” from her debut album, Taylor Swift .

Swift closed out her show with one of her most dramatic transitions, diving under the stage in her purple dress and emerging in a short sequined number and climbing up a ladder into the clouds, where she added a purple coat. Could there be a more perfect intro to Midnights ?

From Midnights , Swift performed “Lavender Haze, “Anti-Hero,” “Midnight Rain,” “Vigilante Shit,” “Bejeweled,” “Mastermind,” and “Karma.” But she wasn't all out of tricks yet. 

In the middle of “Midnight Rain,” Swift whipped out yet another quick change, falling gracefully behind a wall of umbrellas before stepping out of the fray in a sparkling blue Oscar de la Renta bodysuit and matching Christian Louboutin boots. 

Can we have a bit of commotion for this rainbow fringe jacket?

Yeah, this was well worth the wait.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour Outfits, from Her Versace Bodysuit to Her Roberto Cavalli Dress

Taylor Swift is channeling looks from her past 10 albums on her Eras Tour. Take a look at her best outfits, including custom pieces from Versace, Roberto Cavalli and more

Taylor Swift is proving she never goes out of "style" with her recent tour.

On March 17, the singer returned to the stage as she kicked off her highly anticipated Eras Tour . From show-stopping performances to creative transitions , the 3-hour and 13-minute set is a true spectacle but one of the best parts is Swift's stunning costumes.

As Swift takes fans through her extensive music catalog with her 44-song setlist , she perfectly pays tribute to her past 10 albums with custom outfits.

While some pieces are inspired by her different eras (the dazzling Versace bodysuit during the opener encapsulates her Lover aesthetic), other looks are direct references to past tours, including her Roberto Cavalli two-piece for her 1989 set and Nicole + Felicia gown for Speak Now .

Take a look at Swift's Eras Tour outfits ahead.

Taylor Swift's Atelier Versace bodysuit for her Lover set

As Swift opened the show with "Miss Americana & the Heartbreak Prince" from Lover , she wore a custom Atelier Versace bodysuit adorned in pink and blue jewels, reflecting the dreamy pink and blue skies featured on the album's artwork. She paired the look with silver Christian Louboutin knee-high boots and a bedazzled microphone. During her Las Vegas show on March 24, Swift added a flower necklace by Versace to the ensemble.

During her second night of the tour, Swift surprised fans by wearing a completely different sparkling bodysuit. This look, also by Atelier Versace, was covered in blue and gold jewels, with a matching chain necklace and Christian Louboutin knee-high boots.

During her New Jersey show, Swift wore a new bodysuit by Versace, which included fringe tassels and beading. She paired the look with ombré boots and a Versace butterfly necklace, which was a co-design collaboration with Versace ambassador Dua Lipa.

Taylor Swift's Versace blazer for her Lover set

Before singing her hit song " The Man ," Swift completely transformed her look by adding a Versace blazer that complemented her Christian Louboutin knee-high boots.

In addition to wearing a different Atelier Versace bodysuit during the second night of her tour, Swift also switched up during her performance of "The Man" by wearing a black pinstripe blazer with sequins.

Taylor Swift's Roberto Cavalli dress for her Fearless set

Swift donned her best dress by Roberto Cavalli as she performed a few songs from her album Fearless . The gold fringe dress was reminiscent of a similar look the designer created for her Speak Now Tour in 2011. She paired the look with Christian Louboutin boots and a bedazzled guitar .

For the second night of the tour, Swift donned a different Roberto Cavalli dress, which was slightly longer and featured gold and silver sequins in an ombré pattern.

Taylor Swift's Etro dress for her Evermore set

Swift went for a whimsical look as she performed various songs from her album Evermore in a yellow Etro dress that featured a corset top and beading detail down the front. For her bewitching performance of "Willow" she added a matching Etro cape.

During her New Jersey concert, Swift wore a new dress for her Evermore set, which was created by Marco de Vincenzo for Etro. This dress played into the woodsy nature of the Evermore album with a darker burgundy color and ruffles throughout.

Taylor Swift's Roberto Cavalli catsuit for her Reputation set

Swift slithered into a Roberto Cavalli catsuit as she performed her Reputation set on stage. The outfit, which featured an intricate pattern resembling snakes intertwined down the one long leg of the ensemble, was reminiscent of the many bodysuits Swift wore during her Reputation Stadium Tour as it was covered in black sequins resembling scales.

Taylor Swift's Nicole + Felicia gown for her Speak Now set

Despite only performing one song during her Speak Now set, Swift nonetheless left fans wonderstruck as she donned a Nicole + Felicia gown for her performance of "Enchanted." The gold gown certainly felt like a homage to Swift's Valentino ballgown from her Speak Now Tour.

Taylor Swift's Zuhair Murad gown for her Speak Now set

During night two, Swift looked like a real-life princess as she wore a Zuhair Murad ballgown , this time in a pink hue that popped against the stage's violet lighting.

Just before announcing 1989 (Taylor's Version) on Aug. 9, Swift donned a blue dress by Nicole + Felicia during her Speak Now set. She continued to wear different blue outfits throughout the concert.

Taylor Swift's Ashish shirt for her Red set

At the beginning of her Red set, Swift recreated her iconic look from her "22" music video, in which she wears a shirt that reads "Not a lot going on at the moment" with a fedora and shorts. For the concert, she made one critical change, dropping the "not" from the T-shirt slogan. The shirt was custom by Ashish paired with Christian Louboutin loafers and a Gladys Tamez hat.

Swift recreated her "22" music video outfit again for night two, thought this time the shirt featured a lyric from the song: "Who's Taylor Swift anyway? Ew."

While performing in Arlington, Texas, Swift wore another version of her "22" shirt, this time with the text "We are never getting back together. Like ever."

Taylor Swift's Ashish romper for her Red set

As Swift moved on to other songs on her Red album, including "I Knew You Were Trouble," she took off her "22" inspired shirt and hat to reveal a sequin Ashish romper in red and black.

Swift threw on an Ashish coat over her romper as she performed her 10-minute version of "All Too Well" on stage with a coordinating red guitar.

Swift was back in boho for songs from Folklore , in a flowing lilac Alberta Ferretti gown similar to the dress she wore during her 2021 Grammys performance . She even brought back the Folklore house for the performance.

During night two, Swift wore another Alberta Ferretti dress, this time in an off-white hue covered in crystal embroidery. The gown's flowing, cape-like sleeves were made for twirling.

For her March 24 show in Las Vegas, Swift debuted a third Alberta Ferretti dress as she performed her Folklore set. This dress combined various features from her previous two dresses, with a soft pink hue, cape-like sleeves and sequin details throughout.

During night one in Tampa, Swift wore yet another Alberta Ferretti dress for her Folklore set. This look was in bright green featuring a plunging neckline, mesh detailing and leaves embroideries.

Swift recreated one of her memorable 1989 World Tour outfits as she wore a matching Roberto Cavalli top and skirt. The pink set was perfectly paired with dazzling Christian Louboutin boots.

On night two, the star stepped out in a similar beaded matching set by the brand, but this time in a vivid green shade that continued onto her Christian Louboutin boots.

As she performed her 1989 songs, Swift opted for an orange Roberto Cavalli two-piece set with matching Christian Louboutin boots.

Taylor Swift's blue top and skirt for her 1989 set

As Swift performed a few acoustic songs during night one, including "Tim McGraw" from her debut album, she donned a Jessica Jones dress that featured cap sleeves and pleats. The designer has created many of Swift's most iconic looks, including numerous outfits from her Reputation stadium tour and her gold bodysuit at the 2019 American Music Awards when she accepted artist of the decade .

Swift opted for a similar dress, this time in green, as she performed alongside Marcus Mumford for her acoustic set in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 25.

During the last leg of her U.S. tour, Swift donned a blue dress for the special announcement of 1989 (Taylor's Version) , which she debuted the album cover art for on stage. She followed up by playing the hit "New Romantics" from the album.

Taylor Swift's Oscar de la Renta t-shirt and jacket for her Midnights set

For the beginning of her Midnights set, Swift wore a similar look to the one seen in her "Lavender Haze" music video as she paired an Oscar de la Renta crystal t-shirt with an Oscar de la Renta faux fur coat.

Taylor Swift's Oscar de la Renta bodysuit for her Midnights set

As she performed "Midnight Rain," Swift did a quick costume change on stage as she took off her Oscar de la Renta t-shirt to reveal an Oscar de la Renta bodysuit. The outfit, which was in the perfect shade of (what else?) midnight blue, was bejeweled with various beading throughout giving it the appearance of a midnight sky. She paired the look with matching Christian Louboutin boots.

Taylor Swift's Zuhair Murad bodysuit for her Midnights set

For her March 24 show in Las Vegas, Swift switched up her Midnights outfit with a custom look by Zuhair Murad. The midnight blue bodysuit was covered in blue crystals and beaded fringes and even had a matching garter.

During her Los Angeles shows, Swift debuted a new bodysuit by Zuhair Murad for her Midnights set, which was fittingly in midnight blue bodysuit and "adorned with shimmering crystal embellishments, cascading intricate beaded fringes, and accompanied by a coordinating garter," per Zuhair Murad's Instagram .

What to Wear to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, Broken Down by Era

Whether you duked it out with Ticketmaster for tickets or are just going as a very lucky plus-one, you need an outfit that matches the vibe.

If you’re anything like team Marie Claire, you’ve been waiting for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour from the minute that it was announced. And whether you duked it out with Ticketmaster for tickets or are just going as a very lucky plus-one, you need an outfit that matches the vibe. Or, should I say, matches the eras of Swift’s music. 

As a fan who got to attend the show in Boston recently, I was amazed at the wide array of looks at my show. Fans were decked out in Reputation -era snake print, glitter-encrusted face paint inspired by Swift's Lovers album cover, and plenty of DIY’d T-shirts from her Speak Now days. The bottom line? The looks varied widely, proving that you can truly go in any direction when picking your outfit for the Eras tour.

I love getting dressed up for concerts, but I also want to make sure that I can wear my new pieces again and again. It was a question I asked myself over and over while shopping for my own Eras Tour ensemble: Is the look good for me for right now, or good for me forever? In the end, I opted for a bedazzled mesh dress that I could also wear again on a night out over jeans or a slip dress . For the show, I opted to style it over a bodysuit for added coverage. 

If you’re heading to the show this summer, there are a few key things to keep in mind, no matter what you wear. The show is long—five hours from the beginning of the opening act to the end of Swift’s set!—so you’ll want to wear comfortable clothing. Plus, if you’re the kind of fan who spends the majority of the concert jumping and dancing like you’re alone in your bedroom, you’ll want to wear something that you don’t have to worry about adjusting. Comfortable footwear is a must, so make sure that your new shoes don’t require breaking in before you go. Finally, the temperature tends to drop at night—especially if you’re at one of Swift’s rainier shows—so packing waterproof layers in your stadium-approved clear bag is key. (I wish I had packed a sweater.)

Ahead, I rounded up a selection of pieces for you to wear to the Eras Tour, broken down by Era. I’ve tried to think of everything: the shoes I’ve selected are known for being comfortable from the first wear. The dresses are comfortable to both sit and move around in. The jackets add warmth when you need them. Plus, many of the pieces below fall in line with some of summer 2023's biggest fashion trends . 

Taylor Swift's Debut Album Era

If you’re dying for a debut self-titled album Secret Song at your show, wear something that harkens back to Swift’s first-ever era. This time in her career was defined by pastel blue and green shades, her iconic curling-iron curls, and her country twang. Consider cowboy boots and sweet tulle skirts. 

Taylor Swift's 'Fearless' Era

Prefer gold to silver? The Fearless era is for you. This album had it all: Fireworks! A sparkly gold guitar! A gold fringed dress! More was more. To make it work, incorporate gold into your look via a pair of trendy sneakers , a going-out top in the hue, or by wearing a pair of viral gold jeans.     

Taylor Swift's 'Speak Now' Era

Speak Now was defined by one color and one color only: A rich purple. It's the color Swift is wearing on the cover of the album, and it's the shade that has stayed attached to the record ever since. Sweet midi dresses and shoes that come in the same shade are go-tos for this era. 

Taylor Swift's 'Red' Era

Red makes for an easy outfit because it only requires that you wear one color—red. Swift also went slightly preppy while on tour for the album, opting for a classic Breton striped shirt and red high-waisted denim . No matter which outfit vibe you choose, don’t forget your heart-shaped sunglasses. 

Taylor Swift's '1989' Era

1989 is one of the more unique albums in Swift’s discography regarding her looks. While she repped matching sets on tour for the album, she's opted for orange ensembles while on the current Eras Tour.

Taylor Swift's 'Reputation' Era

My personal favorite era as someone who loves to wear all-black, Reputation- inspired outfits are perfect for those who prefer a little drama. From the actual sheer mesh dress I wore to my own concert to a statement-making choker necklace priced at under $50, this era is all about going all-out. 

Taylor Swift's 'Lover' Era

If you love playing with color, consider a Lover- era ensemble for your concert. The key colors for this era were bright Barbiecore pink and rich blue, but pastel shades like baby pink and lavender —a trending color for 2023—were also popular. Go all-out with a heart-shaped stencil around your eye, or heart-shaped earrings. 

Taylor Swift's 'Folklore' Era

Folklore was a departure from the previous maximalist Lover era. The aesthetic for the album was a combination of woodland fairy and cottagecore. On-stage, this translates to flowing summer dresses in muted shades like olive green. IRL, pair lacy layers with chunky cardigans and sweet Mary Jane shoes.

Taylor Swift's 'Evermore' Era

Cozy-core fans, the Evermore era is for you. Taylor’s second pandemic album was full of woodland references but, unlike its predecessor, the vibe this time around was very much fall-inspired. Flannel dresses, comfy Birkenstock sandals, and other comfy pieces reign supreme. Shades to highlight include marigold yellow and burnt red. 

Taylor Swift's 'Midnights' Era

Good thing silver everything is one of 2023’s biggest trends—Taylor is obsessed with the shade for her Midnights era. Her looks from this time in her career are about metallics , drama, and deep shades like navy blue and fushia. If you can’t stop listening to “Karma” or You’re On Your Own Kid,” This one is for you.

Watch the sweet moment Taylor Swift gives a young girl from Old Lyme her hat during the Eras Tour

A connecticut 11-year-old was called to the stage and received an unforgettable gift from the "midnights" artist., by katie langley • published august 10, 2023 • updated on august 10, 2023 at 1:15 pm.

Emily Randak is only 11 years old, but she was feeling "22" at the Eras Tour Wednesday night.

The Taylor Swift fan from Old Lyme, Connecticut, had the moment of a lifetime during her show at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.

After traveling all the way to California for the last show of the first leg of the Eras Tour, Randak was randomly selected from the crowd to receive Swift's "22" hat, a fedora she wears during the "Red" album set.

Watch Randak's excited face as she waits for Swift to reach her at the edge of the stage. The singer kneels down, places the fedora on the 11-year-old's head and accepts a friendship bracelet from the little girl. Randak even gets a big hug and a high five from the superstar.

Swift has given away over 25 hats during the first leg of her tour, always to young kids. The tradition has gone viral with videos showing sweet exchanges between Swift and her young fans.

And what better person to don the hat than Randak, who loves the singer so much she drew a portrait of her for an art class at Lyme Academy.

Randak is not the first local kid to get a special moment with swift among tens of thousands of fans. In May, Leyton Barrett, a 10-year-old from West Haven, was called to the stage to receive the "22" hat from Swift during a show at Gillette Stadium.

Wednesday was an extra exciting night for swifties at the last of six Eras shows at SoFi Stadium. Swift announced the re-recording of her 2014 album "1989" during the show, continuing her pursuit to regain ownership over her older music.

As Swift gets ready to head overseas for the next leg of the Eras Tour, fans around the world will keep "shaking it off," and lots of young swifties will undoubtedly be "Enchanted" to meet her.

The Eras Tour cast: Meet Taylor Swift's dancers, singers and band members

Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour has been out for a week on Disney+ , and there's no doubt some dedicated fans have watched it 13+ times. The three-and-a-half-hour phenomenon is a bedazzled force that moves through 49 songs from Swift's 10 eras. The movie was shot over three nights in Los Angeles and included helicopter, drone and onstage camera angles. By now everyone knows the ringleader of The Eras Tour, but what about the cast and crew who shine alongside her?

Here's a look at Swift's six bandmates, four backup vocalists and 15 dancers featured in the film with the time stamps for when they appear on screen.

'Strike the band up, 1... 2... 3...'

The Eras Tour band is led by Mike Meadows and Max Bernstein. Meadows has been with Swift for more than 15 years, starting on her "Fearless" tour. The guitarist also sings and plays keyboards, cello, harmonica and mandolin. In a cute TikTok, his wife shared a compilation video from Nissan Stadium about how proud she is . Swift places her arm on Meadows during "Love Story" at 33:12.

Max Bernstein rocks out on the guitar, keyboards and pedal steel, which is a steel guitar with pedals and knee levers. He shared a post on Instagram with the caption , "So incredibly grateful to be a little part of the biggest and best show." He joined Swift for the "Reputation Stadium Tour" in 2018. His parents are journalists Nora Ephron and Carl Bernstein, and his brother Jacob is a reporter for The New York Times. Bernstein is to the right of Swift and her "Fearless" heart hands at 26:12.

Paul Sidoti may be the most well known band member. His distinct rocker hair is almost as big as his stage presence. Sidoti has been a vocalist and guitarist with the singer since 2007. He is approachable on the tour and has taken photos with fans in the audience. Sidoti's website also says he's available for "online guitar, bass, and piano lessons via Zoom." Swift touches Sidoti's face during "You Belong With Me" while singing "you've got a smile that can light up this whole town" at 28:15.

Amos Heller is the bassist. Like many of Swift's bandmates, the husband and father of three has been with her since 2007. Heller picked up his first electric bass at 13. His cover of Metallica's "Blackened" shows he's a master thrasher. Swift struts with Heller during "You Belong With Me" at 27:58.

Ooomph! Matthew Billingslea is the drummer crashing the cymbals, beating the toms and pedaling the bass. In 2023, he was nominated for pop drummer of the year at the Drumeo Awards. Billingslea joined Swift's band in 2013 for the Red Tour. Billingslea pops up during "Fearless" at 25:38.

Rounding out the bandmates is Karina DePiano . The classically trained pianist gets a shoutout from the singer following Swift's performance of "Champagne Problems." DePiano performs an interlude at 50:35 while Swift sets a table before singing "Tolerate It." DePiano started 2024 with a Pianote nomination for pop pianist of the year .

'We sing it proudly'

The fearless ladies who make up Swift's choir are "The Starlights."

Up first is Melanie Nyema , the section leader. The vocal virtuoso has backed many artists including Gladys Knight, Sara Bareilles, Solange Knowles, Florence + The Machine and Imagine Dragons. She's been with Swift since 2012 when she performed "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" at the VMAs. Check out her spiritual version of "Gotta Have You." Nyema is left of Swift at 30:33 when she hugs "The Starlights."

Kamilah Marshall is the vocalist dance captain. Marshall came into the fold during the Red Tour. Her song "Canyon" showcases her writing and singing in an outpouring of gratitude. The Broadway actress has credits including "Hairspray" and "Lion King." In 2021, she told the Academic Magnet High School newspaper in South Carolina, "I know I’m supposed to be doing what I do.” You can also see her in the dinner scene of " All Too Well: The Short Film ." Marshall is the "cheer captain" on the left at 28:52 during the "Fearless" era.

Jeslyn Gorman joined Swift during her Red Tour. The vocal riffer has a song, "Falling Like Snow," and has toured with stars Meghan Trainor, Jason Derulo, Rita Ora and Nick Jonas. The Florida native and latte enthusiast moved to Los Angeles. Gorman, like the other "Starlights," thanked Swift on her birthday, "Your heart and generosity is beyond BEYOND. And just when I think you’ve DONE IT, you TOP THAT!" Gorman shimmies at 32:40.

Eliotte Woodford wears the purple "Speak Now" dress and bangs the side of her vitrine during the "Look What You Made Me Do" portion of the Eras Tour at 1:07:38. Woodford has been with Swift since 2013. The wife and mother graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, where she was a part of the a cappella group the "Mosaic Whispers." Her singing and dancing reel shows her early work with Swift .

'I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you'

Fifteen dancers led by choreographer Mandy Moore and associate choreographers Amanda Balen and Jeremy Hudson create some of the most iconic moments during the 10 eras. Moore met Swift through mutual friend Emma Stone who worked with Moore on "La La Land." Her credits are extensive. Most recently, she put together the exemplary Ryan Gosling performance of "I'm Just Ken" at the Oscars.

Amanda Balen is the dance captain. The blond beauty hails from Ontario, Canada. She is famous among the Lady Gaga fandom for dancing in several of the star's music videos and being a part of the Roseland Ballroom residency in New York City in 2014. Balen has worked with Katy Perry and Pink. You can find her at 14:18 during "The Man" to the left of Swift.

Tori Evans lights up the stage. In her decade-plus career, the University of Arizona alumnus has been featured in Ricky Martin music video "Qué Rico Fuera" , swam in synchro-formation next to Beyoncé and strutted on "The Masked Singer ." Evans' resume also includes dancing for Cardi B, Mary J Blige, Jason Derulo and Maroon 5. Her dance teacher of 15 years, Lana Wright, told Morgan Hill Life , "Tori was always that ray of sunshine... I always knew Tori could accomplish her goals, if she really wanted it." You can catch Evans during "Blank Space." She hands Swift a glow-up club at 2:13:45.

Audrey Douglass has danced with the devil, in addition to many other television credits. The performer has boogied and waltzed on Netflix's "Lucifer," Apple TV+'s "The Morning Show," FX's "American Horror Story: 1984," Paramount+'s "1923" and "Dancing with the Stars." Douglass serves up sass as "Shay" in Dua Lipa's "Physical" work out video . Dancing runs in the family, because Douglass' older sister, Hannah, was one of the co-captain dancers on Beyoncé's Renaissance World Tour . As the "Lover" house burns down, you can see Douglass to the left of Swift at 2:22:52.

Taylor Swift Fans Go Wild Over Travis Kelce’s ‘1989’ Easter Egg on Hat While Golfing

Taylor Swift fans are loving Travis Kelce ‘s new baseball hat, as it appeared he give a shoutout to her iconic 2014 album, 1989 .

Travis, 34, was seen in an Instagram Stories video shared on Thursday, March 28, by former NBA player Chandler Parsons as the two played a round of golf at Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, California. After making a killer drive, Travis put his face up to the camera with a laugh, where the golf club’s logo was written on his cap, along with “1989,” the year it opened.

“HELLO HIS HAT SAYS 1989,” one Swiftie wrote on X while posting a still shot of Travis’ cap. Another fan added, “I think he is golfing at Sherwood Thousand Oaks Country Club. So, they probably have the archer in reference to Robin Hood. And 1989 may be when it opened. It is still great Karma for Travis. These coincidences just keep piling up,” using multiple Taylor Swift song titles in the post.

“Travis is never beating the 1989 stan allegations,” one person posted along with the video, as Taylor’s “Bad Blood” could be heard playing in the background. Another added, “Travis listening to 1989 while wearing a hat that says 1989.”

The Ohio native’s golfing buddies apparently used Taylor’s song off 1989 to try to throw off his game, as Chandler wrote on the video how Travis “cannot be rattled,” while in the zone playing golf. After a killer swing and drive, the three-time Super Bowl champ celebrated by shoulder bumbing a pal.

Travis and Taylor, 34, have made Los Angeles their home base ever since she wrapped up the Asia leg of her Eras tour in Singapore on March 9. The couple has been staying at her $25 million Beverly Hills mansion and enjoying dinner dates, as well as attending Madonna ‘s A-list Oscars party on March 10.

The duo is “testing the waters of living under one roof” while Taylor is on her break from the Eras tour, a source told Life & Style exclusively.

Deal of the Day

“It seems to be going very smoothly. He moved into her Los Angeles mansion while she’s on break from her tour, they’re nesting and loving it,” the insider added.

Travis and Taylor took a brief getaway from L.A. to have a romantic vacation in the Bahamas , staying on the exclusive Harbour Island. Upon their return, the couple lunched at Malibu sushi hotspot Nobu on Sunday, March 24.

Travis is continuing to enjoy his off-season from the NFL after the Chiefs won Super Bowl 2024 on February 11. Taylor still has down-time before the April 19 release of her new album, The Tortured Poet’s Department , on April 19. Her Eras world tour doesn’t resume until May 9 in Paris.

Taylor Swift’s Six L.A. Eras Tour Stops Proved Why She’ll Never Go Out of Style

I’ve been a Taylor Swift fan since her first self-titled album, back when I was a certified angsty preteen singing my heart out to “Teardrops on My Guitar” before I even had a boyfriend to cry about. She released “Fifteen” from her sophomore record, Fearless, when I was coincidentally 15 as well, and through her 17 years in music, I’ve followed her through the eras from country, pop, indie-folk and back. However, I’ve never seen her live, so imagine my giddiness when my friend scored face-value tickets for the Eras Tour .

Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour started its run in Glendale, Arizona on March 17, and she just wrapped this year’s U.S. shows with a six-night run at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on August 9. As her devotees have seen on social media, each city and performance has their own distinct flavor, generating anticipation for everyone who is seeing Taylor live. The tour’s signature moves include two surprise songs that aren’t on the official set list per show, and Taylor sharing the limelight with musical guest stars such as Phoebe Bridgers in Nashville to Ice Spice in New Jersey. Outside of official stage moments, multiple nameworthy celebrities have been spotted in the bleachers, singing their hearts out and jingling their wrists full of beaded friendship bracelets. 

Below, the top six surprising moments from Taylor Swift’s six nights in Los Angeles.

August 3: The Giveaway “22” Hat

For every performance of “22”, the singer gifted the black hat she wears on stage to one lucky fan. On August 3, she gave the accessory to Kobe Bryant’s daughter, Bianka. They shared a sweet embrace while her mother, Vanessa, looked on. The poignant hand-off quickly went viral, warming the hearts of Angelenos and Swifties alike.

August 4: More Surprise Songs

Showcasing some love to her debut album along with the extra tracks on the deluxe edition of 1989 , Taylor performed “Our Song” and “You Are In Love” for the first time since 2015 as her two surprise songs of the night. Fans danced and swayed along to both nostalgic tunes, reliving their own romantic love stories.

August 5: Wrapping Up a Secret Film Project

The first three shows in SoFi had camera crews spotted on stage, as fans speculated Taylor was working on a behind-the-scenes concert project to be released on a streaming platform in the near future. August 5 was the final evening being filmed, so Taylor made sure to add some extra oomph and dazzle to her three-hour-plus set list for the documentary.

August 7 : A Hometown Show for HAIM

Gracie Abrams kicked off the night with her pop hit, “Where do we go now?” and set the mood with her crooning. HAIM played shortly after, with an explanation about their San Fernando Valley roots and a shoutout to all the Valley girls in the crowd for their hometown show, before bursting into song for “Want You Back”. Later that evening, Taylor re-iterated how she was so lucky to have her favorite band and best friends, HAIM, join her on stage for a dynamic duet of “no body, no crime” off her album Evermore.

August 8: The Royal Swifties Came

Royalty was in the house that night. Meghan Markle was spotted in the stadium for an evening of Taylor. She was with a close friend, Lucy Fraser, but Prince Harry was nowhere in sight as he was gone for a business trip in Asia. However, that didn’t stop Meghan from letting loose and singing her heart out with the rest of the cheering crowd.

August 9th: The Eighth Month of the Ninth Day for 1989

Taylor is known for being extremely detail-oriented and intentional with the Easter eggs she sends out to her fans. Throughout the whole show, she was seen with new costumes in multiple tones of blue , different from outfits she wore in prior performances. Towards the end during her acoustic surprise songs set, she drops an announcement.

“And so now here we are, on the last night of the U.S. leg of the Eras Tour , in the eighth month of the year on the ninth day of the month,” she said, referencing the date as 8/9. “But I think instead of telling you about it, I think I’ll just sort of show you something.” The screen behind her flashed to an announcement of the re-release of her album, 1989 (Taylor’s Version), set for October 27th, 2023, as the crowd screamed in excitement for what’s next.

After concluding the August 9th show and the U.S. stretch of her tour this year, Taylor was seen strolling backstage in a sparkly purple dress and holding a glass of white wine, blowing kisses to her crew members and fans. Until the next one.

Taylor Swift Gives Fan Her ’22’ Hat in Sweet Moment During Her ‘Eras Tour’ Show in Tokyo: Watch

The Grammy winner took a moment during one of her recent shows in Tokyo to give away her famous black hat to a lucky fan in the crowd.

Taylor Swift , 34, continued her famous tradition of giving away her “22” hat to a fan in the crowd during one of her  Eras Tour   shows in Tokyo on February 8. The Grammy winner made sure that a lucky Swiftie in the crowd received her black hat during a performance of the hit 2012 song. During the adorable moment, Taylor skipped toward the end of the stage to greet the fan and knelt down to give away the stylish accessory.

Taylor also embraced the fan, which appeared to be a female child. After the two exchanged a few words, Taylor sweetly placed the black hat onto the child’s head before she patted her on the shoulder and returned to the stage. During the performance of “22” the pop sensation rocked the famous ensemble from the song’s music video which featured a white sequined top and black sequined shorts.

🎩 | The fan who got the ‘22’ hat tonight! #TokyoTSTheErasTour pic.twitter.com/x1bZBaaEHd — Taylor Swift News 🤍 (@TSwiftNZ) February 8, 2024

In the original music video , Taylor’s shirt reads “Not a lot going on at the moment.” For her 2024 performance of the song, she opted to switch up the shirt’s message to “A LOT going on at the moment.” Although it’s unclear why she chose to change the phrase on her blouse, it would certainly apply to Taylor’s busy schedule these days. She won a few awards at the Grammys on February 4, and has also been in the headlines for her relationship with Travis Kelce .

This is not the first time Taylor gives away her “22” hat to a Swiftie in the crowd, as she’s done so many times throughout the  Eras Tour . In fact, she even gave the famous headwear to  Selena Gomez ‘s younger sister,  Gracie , during a show in April 2023. A few months later, in August 2023, the songstress gave the fedora to Kobe and  Vanessa Bryant’s daughter, Bianka . Taylor is currently performing in Tokyo through February 10, as reported by the  Daily Mail .

Earlier this week, the “Anti-Hero” hitmaker took home two Grammys , including the highly coveted Album of The Year award. Her 2022 album,  Midnights , took home Best Pop Vocal Album, along with AOTY. Taylor made history with her win, as she is the only artist to win AOTY four times. In total, the musician has 14 Grammy wins under her belt along with 52 nominations. During her acceptance speech she sent Swifties into a frenzy after she announced that her surprise album,  The Tortured Poets Department , will be released on April 19.

10 Genius Dupes For Taylor Swift's Eras Tour Outfits

Find a similar look to *that* Versace bodysuit.

Whether you’re attending a show or are following along on TikTok, it’s probably safe to say that you’ve fallen in love with Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour outfits. Although you may not be able to get the exact looks she rocks during her shows, you can come close to recreating the ‘fits with some solid dupes.

With the Eras Tour predicted to gross $1.6 billion, according to CBS News , you can imagine the options were limitless when it came to Swift’s outfits. But if you don’t have the budget for Louboutin heels or custom-made rhinestone Versace bodysuits, there are still plenty of ways to ball on a budget and represent your favorite era.

Below, find ways to replicate 10 Eras Tour outfits. And even if you aren’t attending the concert, these looks are fun to recreate for a Swift-themed party or tailgating outside the concert venue.

1. Lover Era Tour Outfit Dupes

Taylor starts the show off with the Lover Era in a custom-made rhinestone bodysuit by Versace. She also wore a silver, sparkly oversized Versace blazer with tall, silver rhinestone boots by Christian Louboutin for a different outfit. Below, these glittery boots from Amazon go with both the bodysuit and blazer — a two-for-one Lover deal.

Lover Outfits

2. Fearless Era Tour Outfit Dupes

The Fearless Era brings all the nostalgia, as the album came out in 2008. Taylor dresses in gold and, of course, sparkles, for the era, showcasing this Roberto Cavalli fringe dress. The gold Louboutin boots, too? Amazing! These dupes are both from Amazon and nearly identical to Taylor’s.

Fearless Outfits

3. Evermore Era Tour Outfit Dupes

Evermore is one of Swift’s more recent albums, it came out before Midnights (not counting her re-recorded albums). This era is whimsical meets boho, and Swift’s outfits are stunning and perfectly fitting for the theme. She wears a custom-made Etro mustard dress with florals. It’s unclear how much Swift spent on all of her tour outfits; however, Etro’s most expensive dress, which is ready-to-wear, retails for $14,000 . This dupe from Forever 21 is close to the Etro look, with almost the exact same color and boho vibe.

4 . Reputation Era Tour Outfit Dupes

Swift did not come to play with her Reputation album. And her outfit, also by Roberto Cavalli, did not disappoint either. The album is known for its grunge feel and dark lyrics, and snakes tend to be the album’s mascot. This outfit requires some DIY work, but it’s as simple as ironing on some patches. This $41 jumpsuit dupe from Pretty Little Thing even has the bare arm feature, like Swift’s.

Reputation Outfits

5. Speak Now Era Tour Outfit Dupes

The only Speak Now song on the setlist is “Enchanted,” one of the most beloved songs among Swifties. During this performance, she wears three different gowns by Nicole + Felicia, Zuhair Murad, and Elie Saab. This ethereal set features purples, champagne, pinks, and glitter. If you’re searching for a Swift-inspired gown, all three of these dupes are under $100.

Speak Now Outfits

6. Red Era Tour Outfit Dupes

Swift re-recorded her Red album and released it in November 2021. The album features “All Too Well: 10 Minute Version,” which is probably the song fans anticipate hearing the most on this tour.

Swift wears a graphic tee during this era, with her classic saying, “A lot going on at the moment.” She gives all the nostalgia with her black hat, a staple she repeatedly wore when her original Red album was released in 2012.

As for dupes, there are dozens of graphic tees on Etsy with this saying, and you can find the red blazer and hat on Amazon. The black glittery bodysuit dupe from Cider can be re-worn during a night out, and the matching shorts go perfectly.

Red Outfits

7. Folklore Era Tour Outfit Dupes

Folklore was released shortly before Evermore in 2020. For this era, Swift rotates between three stunning Alberta Ferretti dresses, all flowy and long: one purple, one green, and one cream/ivory. The dresses were custom-made for Swift, and beautifully represent the Folklore album. These dupes below all have that whimsical, flowy style to them, with draped or loose sleeves.

Folklore Outfits

8. 1989 Era Tour Outfit Dupes

Some of Swift’s most popular singles come from 1989 , including “Shake It Off” and “Blank Space.” During this era on tour, she’s worn two different (but nearly identical) jeweled two-piece sets, one in magenta and one in green, by Roberto Cavalli. The jeweled top below, a dupe from Amazon, has the perfect colors to represent the album, and the tassel skirt is only $16.

1989 Outfits

9. Acoustic Era Tour Outfit Dupes

At each show, Swift has an acoustic segment, featuring two “surprise” songs that can be from any era. These songs have never been performed live on previous tours, and for some fans, this is the part of the tour they’re most excited about. For her acoustic performances, she rotates between a green, yellow, and burgundy long, flowy, ruffled dress by Jessica Jones. These dupes below both feature the tiered, ruffle style, both from Lulus for under $100.

Suprise Song Outfits

10. Midnights Era Era Tour Outfit Dupes

Last, but certainly not least, is the Midnights Era. Midnights is Swift’s most recent album, which came out in October 2022. She wears outfits made by Oscar De La Renta, including a navy blue and black rhinestone bodysuit and an iridescent, crystal dress. The bodysuit comprises 5,300 crystals and beads, each hand-sewn. While these dupes don’t have 5,300 crystals, they do look pretty close to the original looks.

7 things this Swiftie noticed while streaming the 'Eras Tour (Taylor's Version)' on Disney Plus

“Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour (Taylor's Version)” is finally on Disney Plus and fans have been "Ready For It" for ages. While the movie is fun for hardcore Swifties and Taylor Swift tourists alike, the show is filled to the brim with Easter eggs from past tours, music videos, songs, fandom moments and traditions from the past 15 years. 

You can certainly enjoy the movie without knowing all of the intricacies of the costumes and sets, the significance of friendship bracelets, the ever-evolving surprise songs, and the “Long Live” tea, but the concert takes on a whole new meaning when you dive deep into the lore — but there’s a lot of it. Rather than taking a self-guided tour through the waters of Swift’s expansive career, we’re here to fill in the Blank Spaces you may have after watching the movie — or clue you in on things to look out for when you watch (or rewatch).

She wears short skirts, Swift wears T-shirts

The Eras Tour spans 10 albums and a career of 15 years comprising dozens of costumes, tours, music videos, fan traditions, sets and songs. That’s a lot to cover. And as most people know, Swift is the Easter egg queen. She just loves hiding little details and callbacks for fans to find. Tours are no different. Though it would take eons to work through every relevant set and outfit, there are quite a few standout references that non-Swifties may not get. 

First, let’s talk about the massive stage, which shifts between the Eras house from the “Lover” music video and the “Folklore” cabin from “Cardigan.” Anyone who was around for the “Fearless” days will probably recognize Swift’s bedazzled guitar when she performs the title song during the Eras movie. That guitar is actually a recreation of Swift’s original “Fearless” guitar superglued by her parents the day before the Eras Tour kicked off. Celebrities are just like us. They also have their parents do their science projects the night before the fair even though they could easily outsource that activity. You’ll also notice her patented heart-shaped hand gesture that’s become another tour tradition.

Taylor Swift has earned her Big Reputation and she wants fans to know it. If you recognize her snake body suit in the “Reputation” portion of the film, that’s because it’s a recreation of the exact outfit she wore during the “Rep” tour. The massive special effects snake also pays homage to the iconic stage design of that larger-than-life tour. Also, make sure to pay attention to the glass boxes in “Look What You Made Me Do.” The dancers wear a bunch of Taylor outfit dupes throughout the Eras — between her “Red” ringmaster look and her alter-ego’s cheerleading uniform from “You Belong With Me.”

Swift did a bunch of photoshoots when “Red” was released. One of the most popular (and easily recreated) looks was a white T-shirt with the phrase, “Not a lot going on at the moment.” Swift puts a spin on that look during her “Red” section of the tour with her opening song, “22.” The revamped shirt pokes fun at how busy the singer is these days with the sentiment, “A lot going on at the moment.” 

If you’ve ever wanted to see Swift swing fluorescent golf clubs while she beats the crap out of a fake car, pay attention to “Blank Space.” She and her dancers recreate the iconic scene from the OG music video in the self-parody song that mocks how people view her dating history. 

Moving onto “Midnights,” the entire floor graphics are reminiscent of Swift’s “Lavender Haze” music video topped off with a similar fuzzy purple coat. When it comes to “Karma,” you might catch that all of the dancers’ fringe jackets are Eras colors. 

Long live 'Long Live'

Don’t bring up the song “Long Live” to any Swifties who went to the Eras Tour prior to the release of “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version).” We will genuinely cry. “Long Live” is the quintessential Swiftie song because Swift wrote it for fans to illustrate how Swifties are just as integral to tours as the singer. It’s basically a love letter to the fan base, so we all feel like everyone else got a Valentine’s Day card from Swift while we got shafted.

There are a whole lot of logistics around Swift rerecording her albums and owning her own music, but both “1989” and “Reputation” are heavily represented in the tour and neither of them were rerecorded by the time of the first show. In fact, she announced the re-records of “Speak Now” and “1989” during tour. So it’s hard for the bulk of Swifties who survived the original Great Ticketmaster War to watch everyone else get the tour song we were all desperate to hear. We did not have the time of our lives fighting dragons with you, Ticketmaster. 

Moping aside, everyone watching on Disney Plus gets to see this joyous masterpiece. Though the bulk of the surprise songs play after the credits, “Long Live” was added in after “Enchanted” — where it would have been during the concert. Spurned Swifties from the tour were pretty salty when the live version of the song didn’t play in theaters, either, but at least we have it for streaming. Also, make sure to take a look at the guitar Swift uses for the number. The blue koi fish guitar is the very same one she used during the “Speak Now” World Tour when she performed the song “Last Kiss.” 

“Our Song” makes it an actual Eras Tour

Swifties collectively have one major gripe about the Eras Tour: It’s not actually an Eras Tour because it doesn’t feature every era unless you’re lucky with the secret songs. While “Speak Now” got pretty shafted in the original lineup with just “Enchanted,” Swift’s first self-titled album (known in the fandom as “Debut”) is nowhere to be found. 

Luckily for us watching at home and anyone in the crowd during night two of the LA show, the song “Our Song” makes it a full Eras experience. It’s one of the most beloved jams from Swift’s debut album, and it would have been a perfect song to have on the regular set list to honor every era. But at least we have it in streaming form (like the rest of the surprise songs, it wasn’t featured in the theatrical release). 

1, 2, 3 ... Let’s go b****!

Taylor Swift and Swifties have an array of long-standing traditions together — between drawing 13s on their wrists and lyrics on their arms — concerts are a collaborative experience. Sometimes, tour traditions come from a single person in one brief moment of time that‘s captured forever. Fans will pretty much do anything to get noticed during shows, which is why a Swiftied named Emily Valencia yelled, “1, 2, 3 ... Let’s go b****!” at the “Reputation” tour during the slow ballad “Delicate” (which is kind of a weird choice for that hype sentiment). But back in those days, Swift and her team would pick out fans from the crowd to meet her after the show. 

After posting her unnoticed chant on TikTok, the video went viral and it’s since become a tour tradition any time Swift performs “Delicate.” You’ll even notice Swift counting down to the crowd after the lyric “But you can make me a drink” to kickstart the chant. And don’t worry, Valencia got her IRL moment with Swift when the singer invited her to the “Lover” secret session (which were pre-release listening parties Swift hosted for fans pre-”Folklore”). Swift even parroted the chant to Valencia when she met her. So, mission more than accomplished.

You’re not on your own, kid

At this point, the Taylor Swift friendship bracelet phenomenon is pretty well-known, but not everyone is hip to its origin. Bracelet swapping at Swift concerts and events is a new post-”Midnights” tradition that started as somewhat of an internet joke and became something of a do-or-die sensation (as is the case with most Swiftie traditions). 

Swift’s song “You’re On Your Own, Kid” inspired the crafty bracelet swapping with the line, “So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it, you’ve got no reason to be afraid, you’re on your own, kid.” Swifties took the tradition and ran with it. 

Among those bracelet-loving Swifties is Travis Kelce, Swift’s NFL boyfriend. He tried shooting his shot with Swift by putting his number on a friendship bracelet, but never got a chance to give it to her. Yet his “call me” plea went viral, and Swift finally got her “Fearless” football moment with her now-boyfriend. Kelce isn’t the only celeb to play into the ritual. *NSYNC presented a rather pretty set of friendship bracelets to Swift at the VMAs .

So, when you’re watching the Eras Tour movie and you notice a ton of people wearing friendship bracelets, just know that there’s some pretty deep (folk)lore that goes along with it. Just don’t try deciphering some of the long acronym bracelets if you want to keep your sanity. Pay attention to the credit sequence, too, as names are written on friendship bracelet beads while “Long Live (Taylor’s Version)” plays in the background.

Hats off to Gianna Bryant

Swift picks someone to give her classic hat to at every tour stop during her opening “Red” number “22.”. Gianna Bryant gets that honor during the Los Angeles concert shown in the movie. L.A. was the perfect place to honor Kobe Bryant’s daughter, as the acclaimed basketball player once presented a banner to Swift for the “Most sold out shows” at Staples Center in 2015. While Swift has since graduated from basketball and hockey arenas to massive stadiums, it was still a special moment between the two.

Just don’t ask L.A. Kings fans how they feel about the banner. Los Angeles hockey fans were convinced that the banner was bringing bad luck to the team during a rough rebuild period, demanding that it get covered up during Kings games. The organization acquiesced, but shockingly enough, the team didn’t magically start winning. The bizarre one-way feud (some) Kings fans had against Swift (who’s been to games before!) was so widespread that the Arizona Coyotes trolled the Kings with a replica banner over the Kings’ tunnel. Of course, the Kings then congratulated them on winning their first banner. 

Sufficed to say, there’s a lot of lore attached to the infamous banner, and Swift and the Bryants have a long LA-based history of supporting each other. It’s only fitting that Swift would return the banner gesture with a sweet gesture of her own. There’s a whole lotta love between Swift and Gianna in that moment, which goes well with Gianna’s sequined “Lover” vibes. 

Half-moon eyes, no bad surprises

When it comes to the theatrical release of the Eras Tour movie, quite a few songs didn’t make the final cut: “The Archer” from “Lover,” “Wildest Dreams” from “1989,” “Long Live” from “Speak Now,” and “Cardigan” from “Folklore.” While the former three made it into the digital rented version of the show, “Cardigan” was absent — until now. Unfortunately for “Evermore” fans, “No Body, No Crime” is missing from all three iterations of the movie. Fans have often teased Swift about “Evermore” being her forgotten child. She may deny it but the evidence is pretty sus. However, if “Evermore” is forgotten, then “Debut” is marooned at sea. 

Of course, the regularly scheduled tour songs aren’t the only bonuses in the Disney Plus iteration. Swift performs two surprise songs at every show before the “Midnights” set — one on piano and one on acoustic guitar. She tries to play each song only once before recycling them unless she messes one up. In that case, she throws the song back in the pile. Disney+ viewers aren’t just being treated to songs from one night. Nope, we’ve got all six from the first three stops on the LA tour.

“Our Song” (aucoustic guitar) from LA night two and “You’re on Your Own, Kid” (piano) from night three play after the “1989” set like the surprise songs do in the actual tour. Yet we get six of them after the movie’s credits in a section labeled “The Acoustic Collection.”

First, Swift performs the “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)” vault track, “I Can See You” on guitar. Fun fact: She teamed up with ex-boyfriend (and current friend) Taylor Lautner and “Speak Now” music video alums Joey King and Presley Cash to carry out the heist sequence for the music video. 

The Acoustic Collection is separated into guitar and piano sections rather than the order she performed them in during the shows. So she continues with “Death by a Thousand Cuts” from “Lover” followed by “Our Song” from “Debut.” For the piano portion of the Acoustic Collection, Swift plays “You Are in Love” from “1989 along with “Maroon” and “You’re on Your Own Kid” from “Midnights” to honor one of the tours most iconic new traditions. The line “You’re on your own kid, you always have been” may be a little bit of a bummer lyric to end the movie on. But then we get a cute little bow, so it’s perfectly fine.
