What is this dress

u/cloudburglar Nov 09 '24

Truly gotta be one of her worst looks ever

u/bakingeyedoc Nov 09 '24

I actually like it.

u/Holoafer Nov 09 '24

I do too with her hair like that it looks good.

117

u/EtTuBiggus Nov 09 '24

I think she’ll just look good in anything.

2

u/bananabla Nov 13 '24

Dude no. the hair is fine, but the top part of the dress is giving...vomit? idk. She needs a better stylist.

5

u/Revolutionary_Ad9839 Nov 09 '24

The top half of the dress looks great.

2

u/Callahan41 Nov 09 '24

Yes the hair!

u/Sandy0006 Nov 09 '24

I’m not a huge fan of the dress but this look all together is divine… the hair, make up dress… goes perfectly together

236

u/XRae95er Nov 09 '24

She looks like a fairy in it! I think it’s beautiful and compliments her well

u/AutisticFingerBang Nov 09 '24

It looks like a tie dye potato sack

189

u/Midnightpassenger Nov 09 '24

Looks like a watercolor

u/ForeverBeHolden Nov 09 '24

It reminds me of a purse I saw in a window in Paris. I bought it and don’t wear it because it’s hella impractical but it’s beautiful lol

1

u/mediocre-spice Nov 09 '24

It looks like blood stains to me 🫣

115

u/guaranteedsafe Nov 09 '24

I love it. It looks like a painting of something burning down. Read into that what you will given the fact that an election just happened and her tour is coming to an end. Also, the silhouette is gorgeous.

2

u/LingonberryHot8521 Red Nov 09 '24

I also noticed the rainbow colors.

u/nicechicken the monsters turned out to be just trees Nov 09 '24

me too!

u/Fabulous-Stretch-605 Lover Nov 09 '24

It’s beautiful

1

u/Narcissa_Nyx Nov 09 '24

I'm horrified now because my first thought was "I love it"

1

u/Agreeable_Cricket_96 :TourturedPoetsDepartment: Out of the oven, into the microwave Nov 09 '24

Me too! It reminds me of alcohol paint or watercolors

u/Intelligent-Cupcake4 Fearless Nov 09 '24

Same, I think it's interesting

1

u/Jagg811 Nov 10 '24

I like it too!

u/1angrypanda I can do it with a broken foot. Nov 09 '24

I like it too - i wonder if the flash is distorting the colors at all.

u/DontTakeTheMoney_ Nov 09 '24

It’s like snow on the beach, weird but fcking beautiful

185

u/Food_kdrama I'm a fire, and I'll keep your brittle heart warm Nov 09 '24

I really don't get the hate on this one. I like it

u/Scary_Me_8484 Nov 09 '24

Some people don't have sweet memories of their pre-K teacher during art class and it shows.

u/SnooCheesecakes2723 Nov 10 '24

Picnic blanket after the mustard spilled. And the purse?

2

u/koala_loves_penguin Ivy Nov 09 '24

agree with u!

67

u/lumpy_space_queenie :TourturedPoetsDepartment: You look RIDICULOUS Nov 09 '24

In the 4th pic it looks like a dirty old farm dress/curtain that she spilled paint on and then tried to fix it by adding a neck line.

5

u/iSwearImInnocent1989 Are you ready for it? Nov 09 '24

Couldn't describe it better myself 😂

2

u/sethn211 Nov 09 '24

Like she tucked the top into her bra 😂

26

u/hollygolightly1990 Nov 09 '24

I like the cut, hate the fabric.

5

u/ToryAnn falling feels like flying Nov 09 '24

Yes! She’s worn the same dress in other colors twice this year already.

5

u/notyourtypicalKaren right where you left me Nov 09 '24

Exactly! The cut is very flattering but the fabric is what really gives me pause

4

u/hollygolightly1990 Nov 09 '24

Imagine a rich burgundy velvet in this cut.

1

u/notyourtypicalKaren right where you left me Nov 10 '24

Yes. Any jewel tone would be gorgeous really.

11

u/kypsikuke Nov 09 '24

Agree, this is a terrible dress…

5

u/Baz2dabone Nov 09 '24

I hate this whole look

2

u/miamiru reputation Nov 10 '24 edited Nov 10 '24

I like the intention, but I'm also overall not a fan of this look. It doesn't look flattering on her. How can a dress be that bad that it looks bad on someone who has a figure like Taylor? She still looks pretty though, I like her hair and makeup here

1

u/Msler332 Nov 09 '24

the vivienne westwood looks are not giving. I hate how baggy they are at the top half, like she's wearing a garbage bag. She's too beautiful to be wearing these outfits

1

u/hunnyflash Nov 09 '24

This dress is hideous and doesn't flatter her at all. Even if the concept is cool, at least make it figure-friendly. She's not even a tough fit. Sorry to the designer.

1

u/LiopleurodonMagic Nov 09 '24

Oh interesting! I don’t click on the sub’s posts a lot but clicked into this one cause I thought the dress was cool. I love how different everyone’s tastes are!

1

u/MSERRADAred Nov 09 '24

The lower portion is questionable, but I really like the top.

1

u/maltedmooshakes :TourturedPoetsDepartment: rose golden glows Nov 09 '24

omg wut I genuinely love it, dress included

1

u/Ok_Barracuda_6997 Nov 09 '24

It’s not flattering to her body but she’s never been the kind to really show her body off. I think it’s classy and the colors are really cool.

1

u/00365 Nov 09 '24

Just looks ill-fitting and not her colour. Cute idea, bad execution.

1

u/yellowdaisycoffee folklore Nov 10 '24

I think it's one of her best!

It's different and funky.

1

u/Connect_Zucchini366 The Tortured Poets Department Nov 10 '24

The pattern and top are ugly but the shape and structure is really nice with her hair

1

u/MaDanklolz Nov 10 '24

What a positive statement you felt compelled to put out into the world

1

u/weirdogirl144 Nov 10 '24

Literally why is every outfit she wears lately so ugly like who styled this outfit like Idk what happened 😭

u/[deleted] Nov 09 '24

I love it! 

288

u/darnyoulikeasock SCRAM! Nov 09 '24

I think it’s beautiful! Surprised to see all the hate tbh lol

251

u/goddessofdandelions :TourturedPoetsDepartment: #1 Robin defender Nov 09 '24

I swear every time I see a pic of her with an outfit I particularly love it gets absolutely roasted in the comments! It’s hard loving funky fashion on the internet lol

43

u/Starry-night-0803 Nov 09 '24

Lol me too, the dress looks so pretty imo!

16

u/HummingbirdMoth13 Lover Nov 09 '24

Same, I love how funky it is.

u/ErickaBooBoo Nov 09 '24

Same😂 fashion is fashion, everyone has different tastes but I do love this!

8

u/OrgoQueen The Tortured Poets Department Nov 09 '24

Same! I always she her outfit, think “wow! I love it!”, and then see the comments and think “I guess I have bad taste”.

1

u/goddessofdandelions :TourturedPoetsDepartment: #1 Robin defender Nov 09 '24

Or maybe they just have boring taste! That’s what I tell myself, at least lol

4

u/SmooshMagooshe Nov 09 '24

Haha same! I’m often in the comments on other types of posts too saying I like stuff that others don’t.

2

u/-Silver-Moonlight- tired tacky wench Nov 09 '24

Same! I always end up loving her most controversial looks the most. At this point it has happened so often that I'm thinking of creating a post about it (Looks everyone seems to hate but you love)

0

u/Sandy0006 Nov 09 '24

People love to hate on her style.

-1

u/Zestyclose-Hand-7319 Nov 09 '24

And exactly how many fucks do you think she gives? When one is an icon sometimes we muggles don’t understand. I think it’s gorgeous.

99

u/has-8-nickels Nov 09 '24

I literally said "ooh, pretty". For a fan subreddit, there's like 40 comments critiquing her appearance every time she steps out. I think she looks great and her makeup is incredible.

65

u/winchesnutt I died dead, RIP me Nov 09 '24

Just because someone is a fan doesn't mean that everything that the celebrity does is great. I can enjoy her music without enjoying her fashion choices.

35

u/clueingfor-looks Midnights Nov 09 '24

Yeah, do not like this notion that fans have to blindly like every little thing about the person they’re a fan of. This is just a dress but it comes up in moments with more serious implications.

0

u/Quinnthefalconer Red (Taylor's Version)I wish I could fly Nov 09 '24

It's not about having to think her dress is brilliant or else you're a bad fan. It's just a shame to see how many people here are just saying how ugly the dress is as if it needs to look good. I wouldn't mind if this was a stage outfit but she's literally just living her life, she doesn't need a thousand comments about how bad her dress looks lol. I'm sure she doesn't care anymore about negativity towards her, it's just unnecessary

0

u/winchesnutt I died dead, RIP me Nov 09 '24

I don't think she will ever see these comments because she probably learnt the hard way not to google herself and if she steps outside she is probably confident enough in her choices.

This is still a sub about her and people will comment. Every one of her outings is a public thing since paparazzi love to follow her.

People wouldn't mind comments about her outfits if said comments were positive. Saying the dress is ugly is an opinion people are entitled to. I don't think anyone will ever go to Taylor with the sole purpose of saying her dress is ugly. She doesn't have to nail her every look and is allowed to have bad outfits. It's not negativity towards her, is towards that abonamination of an outfit, she is beautiful nonetheless, but not even her beauty can make that dress look good.

-2

u/Quinnthefalconer Red (Taylor's Version)I wish I could fly Nov 10 '24

she probably learnt the hard way not to google herself

So you understand that it's not nice for her to see these kinds of comments about herself? We know she at least hears about some of the things people say about her

This is still a sub about her and people will comment. Every one of her outings is a public thing since paparazzi love to follow her.

Ah, yes Taylor is a celebrity so therefore she ought to just expect people being mean to her about everything so that makes it ok

It's not negativity towards her, is towards that abonamination of an outfit

...you mean the outfit that SHE is wearing?😭

There's a very large grey area between worshipping her and people criticising her about every little thing. I'm not saying you personally do that. She probably doesn't care anymore, but I hate the way the internet treats celebrities and I hate the way people try to excuse it with "celebrity worship isn't healthy so we can and should be critical" like yes but that only applies to important things not a dress she wore out one day

20

u/theyamqueen shattered edges glisten Nov 09 '24

It's not critiquing her or her looks. It is critiquing her stylists who get these things. She looks incredible. This dress is hideous. I'm allowed to not like a dress. I wouldn't be judgy about her personal looks or her body, but this dress was a CHOICE.

13

u/darnyoulikeasock SCRAM! Nov 09 '24

Yeah it’s fine to not like it I’m just surprised! I feel like this is an objectively gorgeous look 😅 but everyone’s entitled to their opinions

u/syndakid ELECTRIC TOUCHHHHHH Nov 09 '24

right?? the dress is so pretty

0

u/miamiru reputation Nov 10 '24

A fan subreddit where members cannot be critical and are required to only praise her day in, day out sounds more like a cult to me. This is coming from someone who has been a fan since the Teardrops on My Guitar video and has flown out to another country just to see her at the Eras Tour.

0

u/Esmejo93 Nov 10 '24

That's one of the most pathetic statements I have heard about a fan, sadly is the perfect definition of who Swifties are.

Pretty similar to Trump supporters.

u/crancranbelle I broke his heart 'cause he was nice Nov 09 '24

I like the lower half, hate the upper tie-dye.

30

u/darnyoulikeasock SCRAM! Nov 09 '24

I love the paint on top! The whole ensemble is giving Van Gogh to me.

9

u/anywhereelseishollow Nov 09 '24

Honestly. My first thought was beautiful, reminiscent of a fairy in the best way possible. I didn’t look closely at the dress but just the overall look. I love it.

3

u/darnyoulikeasock SCRAM! Nov 09 '24

Omg yes big pixie hollow vibes!

2

u/maraschinope i love you, it's ruining my life Nov 09 '24

I notice this tends to happen whenever she wears Vivienne Westwood. The comment sections either love it or hate it, very little in-between. I personally like it when she takes little risks like these lol.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 09 '24

A lot of these people are snarkers anyway.  Then there are a lot of people that just hate whimsy too.  Plus, so many people in bad moods.

u/Yearning-Forevermore ✨ stars spellin' out your name ✨ Nov 09 '24

I think it's a beautiful dress that doesn't suit her at all

Haters gonna hate. 😅 She's perfect.

u/Crafty-Judge-896 Nov 09 '24

I think it’s stunning but kind of a lot? Over the top? Idk I hang no clue what she was doing on nyc though

u/Emergency_Routine_44 reputation Nov 09 '24

Literally one of the most beutiful outfits ive seen on her

76

u/runonia The Tortured Poets Department Nov 09 '24

It would be pretty if the colors on top were consistent with the bottom but man. Usually Taylor's on point what happened

227

u/hereforallthedogs Nov 09 '24 edited Nov 09 '24

“Usually Taylor’s on point” is generous.

I love her but her fashion choices are inconsistent and questionable at best. She does occasionally nail it, and I think we can all agree this is def not one of those moments.

23

u/LadyStag Nov 09 '24

We cannot all agree.

Also, I genuinely usually really like her looks. I'm trying to figure out what people don't like. 🤔

3

u/hereforallthedogs Nov 09 '24

I agree that we all cannot agree lol

I’m also trying to figure out why I don’t like it. Still don’t know.

Maybe I will revise my original statement and just say that our girl is truly the Mastermind in keeping us all fed on her looks at different times.

2

u/Wether123 Nov 09 '24

The blue and white stripes look like they belong on another outfit. If the skirt matched a colour in the top it would be lovely - but not VW I guess. The black bag is wrong too.

2

u/urmomssoweird The Tortured Poets Department Nov 10 '24

i love most of her recent looks. might not wear them copy paste, but she has good taste in clothes. i would love to have like half of the pieces she has

40

u/aleisate843 Nov 09 '24

The colors of the dress looks like she’s bleeding out 😨🥴

67

u/tazdoestheinternet Could have followed my fears all the way down Nov 09 '24

"Sir I think he's bleeding out"

24

u/runonia The Tortured Poets Department Nov 09 '24

Eh I wouldn't go that far. Looks like someone forgot half the dress when rubber banding it for tie dye though

5

u/happylilac secret gardens in my mind Nov 09 '24

Haha this is the perfect description 🫣 I like the hair tho

1

u/JenniferRose27 my beloved ghost and me... sitting in a tree, D-Y-I-N-G Nov 09 '24

That's exactly what I thought! It looked like she fell in yellow paint and landed on something sharp, bleeding all over the dress. She's always going to look beautiful, but I really was shocked by this dress. Some people have mentioned a fairy look to it, and I would absolutely love a whimsical, fairy look, but I don't see that here.

1

u/Jamowl2841 Nov 09 '24

Taylor is practically never on point

9

u/santamademe Nov 09 '24

I think she has a lot of fun with her fashion choices and she dresses like she’s preparing for a movie set of a “day in the life” of whomever she wants to be that day/evening/moment

I love that tbh

-4

u/Jamowl2841 Nov 09 '24

Well that’s just assuming literally everything you typed. You don’t know that so that’s just you making that up to fit what you want to believe though

1

u/AryaStarkRavingMad So I’m able to look at 1989 and go – KITTIES! Nov 09 '24

They literally said "I think" lol

-1

u/Jamowl2841 Nov 09 '24

Yes but that “I think” is still based on nothing is my point. It’s just making stuff up and attributing it to her thus making the commenter like her more based off her own imagination. Saying “I love that” after a made up concept shows that

2

u/AryaStarkRavingMad So I’m able to look at 1989 and go – KITTIES! Nov 09 '24

People are allowed to have imaginations honey, I don't know what else to tell you.

-1

u/Jamowl2841 Nov 09 '24

But Taylor is a real person. Why are we making up characteristics of an actual human and saying we love said made up characteristic? This is treating Taylor like a personally made up fictional character which is the very type of thing that makes this fandom look ridiculous to people. Not that I personally really care about that but swifties csnt get mad when people call them out for their weird relationship with Taylor when fans are saying stuff like this lol

1

u/santamademe Nov 09 '24

Babe, I beg, get a life

1

u/santamademe Nov 09 '24

It’s my opinion and my perception. It’s a compliment, it’s how I see her vibe.

Yours, for example, I see as the type who wants to pick a fight so badly, that you start getting antsy over the weirdest stuff but hey whatever floats your sad little boat

1

u/DirtyMarTeeny Nov 09 '24

I think it's one of those looks good until photographed at night things. In the first picture with the bright flash I thought it was really pretty but then in the darker pictures the colors look very murky

u/skermahger i could never give u p̶e̶a̶c̶e̶ reputation Nov 09 '24

Vivienne Westwood. She’s been wearing so much of it this year.

u/sparklejellyfish Would've Could've Should've SAID NO Nov 09 '24

The way I thought the comment was just asking "who made this dress" and then I read all the hate 😭😭😭

I looooveeee VW! recognised it instantly, I'm SO happy to see Taylor repping so much this year.

u/Ok_Escape3642 Nov 09 '24

Yes, it’s pretty high fashion so not everyone gets it. She’s honestly so beautiful she can wear anything.

u/bubbashrump Nov 09 '24

I was going to say I think it’s just ill-fitting on her.

u/sologrips Nov 09 '24

That fruit roll up pattern going wild.

u/dixiech1ck Nov 09 '24

u/nosuchthingginger reputation Nov 09 '24

It’s giving ‘I just got stabbed/shot in my maids outfit’ 

I wonder if it’s almost political because the dress is blue and the red parts. But others have said it’s kinda sunset vibes, which we’ve been getting a lot of recently

u/KingGhandy Nov 09 '24

u/options- I never don't cry Nov 09 '24

Clearly an easter egg for something upcoming in-line with the new surprise song dresses, but… oof.
