The Stellar Style of Taylor Swift: Making a Statement with a Leather Minidress

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may have left Las Vegas, but that doesn’t mean we’re done discussing their recent weekend getaway. These days, what goes down in Vegas doesn’t necessarily stay there thanks to social media.

About a week after Swift and Kelce were spotted on a double date with Brittany and Patrick Mahomes on February 26, a video surfaced on Instagram. The video, posted by user Karla Santi, showed the couple leaving Easy’s cocktail lounge at the Aria Resort & Casino. The speakeasy is cleverly disguised as a bake shop known as Easy Donuts. Even though TMZ had already mentioned the “low-key” night out, Santi seemed to be the only one with fan footage of the couple, focusing especially on Swift’s date night outfit.

“I hesitated to share this because @taylorswift deserves her privacy, but I couldn’t resist pointing out how adorable her dress was last Friday night in Vegas,” she wrote in the caption of her post. “Oh, and I guess @killatrav looked decent too. 😉” She added, “I hope their date night was enjoyable. It definitely made our night memorable as well.” Check out the clip for yourself here.

These two sure know how to clean up well! Santi reported that she caught Swift and Kelce leaving the venue together late at night, hand in hand. Kelce was seen wearing a stylish salmon pink outfit from head to toe, while Swift looked stunning in a flirty black (or possibly brown) leather minidress paired with sling-backs. The internet detectives are still trying to figure out the brand of the long-sleeved fit-and-flare dress, but it seems to be similar to the Alaïa Metallic Stretch Wool Blend Mini Dress that Swift wore on another night out in Vegas, as noted by Taylor Swift fashion expert Sarah Chappelle.

After shooting this video, Swift showed up at the charity gala and auction hosted by 15 and the Mahomies Foundation. She was dressed in Maria Lucia Hohan’s green Regina dress worth $2,405, sparking more speculation about the re-release of Reputation (Taylor’s Version) following The Tortured Poets Department album drop on April 19. Given the number of TTPD hints Swift has been subtly dropping in her outfits over the past half year, it’s not far-fetched to think that this move was deliberate.

It goes beyond just the colors. According to Chapelle’s recent interview with Glamour, Taylor has set herself apart as the authority on her public image. She puts a lot of thought into how she presents herself to the world. Her fashion choices are not just for show – they are a way for her to communicate. Whether she’s using her outfits to represent different eras in her career or dropping clues to excite her fans, fashion is a powerful tool for Taylor.

Isn’t it just so true? Sarah Chapelle, also known as @TaylorSwiftStyled, is arguably the ultimate expert when it comes to understanding Taylor Swift’s fashion and style. In her breakdown, she delves into the intricate details of the *Tortured Poets* aesthetic and beyond.
