A Taylor Swift album cycle is never merely a musical era; it's a 24/7 commitment to a mood and an aesthetic. As the Grammy winner traveled between stops on the Australian leg of the Eras Tour last night, she dressed precisely for what fans now recognize as the Tortured Poets Department look.
After playing for crowds of 288,000 people over three nights in Melbourne, Australia, Swift went out to dinner in Sydney with tour opener Sabrina Carpenter in an outfit with all the emblems of her new style era. Swift's look revolved around variations of two pieces she's worn multiple times over the past year while teasing her forthcoming eleventh studio album: a close-fitting black corset top and a pleated mini skirt. (No subtle nods to boyfriend Travis Kelce were spotted this time around.)
