The Guardian | October 2012
Vintage dress
Not a surprise given the era, but it’s nice to know officially that this dress Taylor wore for a Guardian photoshoot is a sweet vintage number.
Worn with: Prada heels
With a fan | Cape Cod, MA | July 2013
Vintage ‘Stars and Stripes Sweater’ - no longer available
Taylor showing off her stars and stripes in a vintage American flag sweater. She wore this over top of what I can only guess is yet another vintage dress she wore that summer.
Food Network w/ Ina Garten | June 2014
Thanks Meg!
Salvage Life ‘Floral and Dot Vintage Pleated Dress’ - no longer available
Given the cut, print, and fabrication I had always suspected that this dress was vintage. It appears that it is indeed an older or custom Salvage Life piece. Taylor was a big fan of Salvage Life in her RED days when she most frequently wore vintage.
The brand takes older pieces and painstakingly cleans, repairs, and modifies them so that they appear like new again and give vintage items a new lease on life.

Thanks @taylorswift_updates!

Leave it to Taylor to bring back her vintage style. She wore a beautiful cherry-print vintage dress while singing Britney Spears and Whitney Houston with Abigail.

Suzy Perette ‘Vintage Silk Daisy Dark Floral Dress’ - $295.00 (Size S, Etsy)
Can you believe that Taylor’s exact daisy dress she wore in the “WANEGBT” is still available for purchase after all these years?
For the one lucky TSS-er, this dress can be yours. According to the designer, Taylor wore a replica of it for the music video.
“Mean” | 54th Annual Grammy Awards | February 20, 2012
Palace Costumes vintage dress
With the 2016 Grammys right around the corner, I thought I’d bring this one back!
To perform her award-winning song “Mean”, Taylor took to the stage in this vintage floral number by Palace Costumes.
Many people consider this to be one of Taylor’s most iconic performances of “Mean” given the lyric change “Someday I’ll be singing this at the Grammys” — what a dream come true for her.
Out with Conor Kennedy | Hyannis Port, MA | July 31, 2012
Vintage skirt
Ah, young love. What memories, am I right?
Waaaayy back in the summer of 2012 when Taylor was seeing Conor Kennedy, she mostly (and much to my sadness [but also delight]) relied on beautiful and 50s-inspired pieces like this midi-length floral skirt.
1989 album photoshoot | October 2014
Vintage top
This has been one of the most-requested items from Taylor’s 1989 photoshoot and I’m sad to report that unfortunately this top came with no tag and was a vintage find by Taylor’s stylist.
You can pick up a similar option from Express for only $25 here.
Worn with: Michael Kors shorts and Prada heels

The Ellen Degeneres Show | October 25, 2012
Vintage dress
I do love a blonde in orange and Taylor wears this lovely 1960s vintage lace dress so well. The bow belt serves as a touch of feminine modernity.
Worn with: Prada belt
At the Kennedy Compound | Hyannis Port, MA | August 19, 2012
Vintage dress
Taylor’s style this summer while at the Kennedy Compound frequently consisted of vintage dresses like this yellow one. Much to the dismay of this fashion blogger as ‘vintage’ is generally synonymous with ‘good luck finding it’

Filming the season finale of New Girl | April 29, 2013
Palace Costumes vintage dress
New Girl costume designer Deb Mcguire selected this peach-tinged vintage dress from L.A. prop house Palace Costumes to give Taylor a purposefully bridal, wholesome look.
Taylor assisted in selecting the dress and cited it as a favourite of hers.

“You Belong With Me” | 2009 MTV VMAs | September 13, 2009
Vintage dress
Taylor’s chiffon dress was a cute little 1950s number that she paired with a retro-looking pair of patent Louboutins.
Worn with: Christian Louboutin heels
Target RED (Deluxe Edition) Release Party | October 22, 2012
Vintage dress
Beautifully demure, Taylor’s black midi dress with a scooped out back and cute button detail at the neck is a lovely choice but not one I would have personally selected for a release party event as a more playful choice would have been my pick.
I do, however, love the perfect blend of vintage and modern with the combination of the dress with the PVC and studded Louboutins it was paired with.
