Here at Vogue HQ, we frequently find ourselves divided on the subject of Taylor Swift’s fashion sense. Some are obsessed, some love her music so much they find ways to excuse her fashion faux pas, and some are flat-out opposed to her eclectic, all-American choices. Regardless of who is right, we’re all talking about it. And why wouldn’t we be, given that she’s one of the most powerful figures in pop culture? Plus, her most recent outfit had even the naysayers onside.
Spotted: the “Anti-Hero” singer gallivanting around a snowy New York City in a look that’s more pared-back chic than her usual outfits (see the recent velvet minidress and thigh-high boots). She wore a taupe hooded cashmere dress by The Row – the brand beloved by minimalist-leaning stars such as Zoë Kravitz and Jennifer Lawrence – a navy tailored Gant coat thrown over the top and a pair of black leather ankle boots, also from The Row. She accessorized with a brown suede Manu Atelier handbag and gold miniature heart-shaped earrings by Foundrae.
While the pop sensation’s swaddling outfit feels somewhat J-Law coded, certain details are quintessentially Taylor Swift – take, for instance, the heart-shaped jewelry. Is Taylor stepping into her quiet luxury era? Only time will tell. For now, enjoy this moment of Manhattan cool-girl elegance from Swift.
