8 of the Best Gowns Taylor Swift Has Ever Worn

CMA Awards in 2007

I mean, if I'm not mistaken, this is a refreshed rendition of the dress that Belle wore in the film Beauty and the Beast, right? Due to the fact that she is not even 17 years old in this picture, it is a perfect example of something that a teenager would adore (and possibly choose for a prom dress).

2013 Met Gala

This year's theme was "PUNK: Chaos to Couture," and I can completely understand why it was chosen. Despite the fact that this J. Mendel gown is more daring than Swift often prefers, it still features her signature love of glitter and a makeup styling that is straightforward yet effective.

Grammys, 2021

For the year that she made history by winning album of the year for the third time as a female artist, Taylor Swift makes a statement with this floral tiny Oscar de la Renta. She pulls it off with panache.

CMAs in 2008

In addition to the contrasting black accents that really take this elegant gown to the next level, the small mirrors that are featured on this handmade Kaufmanfranco gown are just breathtaking (insert joke about how she looks like a disco ball that has come to life).

2018 American Music Awards

It is the most adult form of some of the glittery gowns that she has worn in the past, and it gives off strong "don't mess with me" vibes, which I really enjoy. This Balmain collection is a great example of this.

CMA Awards, 2012

This Jenny Packham gown, which is a favorite of royals such as Kate Middleton, is charming and lovely, and it still sparkles in all the right places. Swift frequently harnesses the "love of sparkles" look, and this is a fun development of that aesthetic, with a good tie-in with her characteristic red lip.

Golden Globes in 2020

Swift doesn't always go for a bold, flashy pattern, but when she does, I have to give her props. Swift complemented the green Golden Globe background well, looking like spring was bubbling out of her despite the fact that it was January. She wore an Etro gown.

2015 Grammys

Swift's longer hair at the time was a welcome change from this soft cropped cut, and this Elie Saab outfit is an equally delightful and unexpected "moment," especially with the ombre fabric, high-low style, and contrasting shoes.
