Golden Globes 2024: Taylor Swift makes the whole place shimmer in custom Gucci

After dominating summer with her inescapable Eras Tour, and then dominating cinemas with her record-breaking concert film (which even surpassed Michael Jackson’s ‘This Is It’) — Taylor Swift finished her tour de force with a striking red carpet appearance at the 2024 Golden Globes.

Already a four-time best original song nominee, this year Swift was nominated for Cinema and Box Office Achievement for her blockbuster ‘Eras Tour’ film. To mark the occasion, the songstress opted for a fashion forward slinky, metallic green custom Gucci gown by the brand's new creative director Sabato de Sarno. Featuring a daring side-slit that revealed matching pointy-toed heels, the star accessories with De Beers diamond earrings and her signature bangs and wavy locks. 

On social media Swifties quickly likened the dress to a very important animal in the fandom — the snake — with fans flooding Twitter with green love hearts and snake emojis. The motif unofficially represents the singer’s ‘Reputation’ era, and many believe the dress to be an Easter egg for her next album re-record. A feat the musician has been undertaking since 2021 after her masters were unknowingly sold to industry nemesis Scooter Braun.

Although new beau Travis Kelce was not in tow, Swift spent the night arm-in-arm with Hollywood bestie Selena Gomez. The ‘Only Murders in the Building star’ was up for best performance by a female actor in a television musical or comedy for her role in the Hulu series, and sported a shimmering red, asymmetric Giorgio Armani dress. 

In one particularly viral moment, the two were caught gossiping about something, which eager armchair detectives believe to be about an awkward encounter with Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner. A tweet from @popculturegal claimed Selena said: 'I asked for a picture with him and she (Kylie Jenner) said no,’ which was met with a dramatic reaction from Swift.
