It seemed like Travis Kelce designed Taylor Swift's engagement ring to be the most bejeweled piece in every off-duty designer outfit. But on May 11, the Artifex Fine sparkler finally met its match during a family dinner in New York City. Swift's rhinestoned little black dress and peep-toe pumps made the whole place shimmer, too.
Days after her floral Zimmermann dress and lacy Fleur du Mal skirt debuted in London, Swift reunited with her mom, dad, and brother at the West Village's Eighty Six restaurant. Throw your preconceived notions about steakhouse styling out the window, though. Swift honored the hotspot's "Smart Elegant" dress code in a $4,500, sold-out LBD from Valentino. Rhinestones decorated each spaghetti-slim strap, before morphing into a knotted bow atop the bodice's empire waistline. Not a single gemstone cascaded onto the tailored, thigh-grazing skirt crafted from structured crêpe. That juxtaposition is what made her Spring 2026 shoe trend for the evening such a mirrorball moment.
