Swift’s height added to her commanding presence as she topped off her pop-punk look with her signature knee-high boots and a choker necklace, E! Online reported on Thursday (September 12). The yellowy-green and black tartan dress features a zip-up corset top and a sweeping train over black shorts, according to Vogue. Taylor’s ensemble may have been a nod to her 2017 album Reputation, which is associated with the colors green and black and generally edgier fashion choices.

In 2015, the musician scooped up $13,000 in fetish clothing for the shoot of her Bad Blood hit song. In the music video of Bad Blood, Taylor’s outfits were pulled off the rack at BDSM store The Stockroom, well-known for its hardcore fetish items in the Silverlake area of Los Angeles, TMZ reported at the time.

Ye went on to voice his disappointment at the result, exclaiming: “Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you. I’m going to let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.”
“She looks incredible,” a reader commented
