Taylor Swift surprised everyone by adding a £58 dress from a Scottish fashion brand to her collection, leaving the designer of the brand, Little Lies, in awe. The olive-green mini dress was seen on Swift while she dined in Brooklyn with Blake Lively and Zoë Kravitz at Lucali pizzeria. Jade Robertson, the co-founder of Little Lies, expressed her surprise, saying, “I was completely taken aback at first. We didn’t even know she had the dress.”

I woke up to messages on WhatsApp from a member of our design team. She told me that her brother, a huge Taylor Swift fan, had discovered something at 6 am and immediately shared it with her, which she then forwarded to me. And that’s how we got the news. When she checked the inventory of the dress on Thursday morning, she was surprised to find that it had already been completely sold out. The Little Lies team found the order, but it was not placed under Taylor Swift’s name. They speculated that it was probably made secretly by the singer herself or someone from her team.

Robertson mentioned that only a limited number of the dress will be produced, with the price remaining the same. Although she admires Taylor Swift’s music, she is more of a fan of 70s classic rock, citing Fleetwood Mac as one of her favorites. She shared that her auntie was in a band during the 70s, and she grew up hearing stories about parties with iconic bands like Led Zeppelin and the Beatles.

Even though she’s worth millions, Swift has shown she doesn’t mind wearing affordable clothing. Last September, she was seen in a red knit dress that only costs $98 (£77) while hanging out with Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner. And in June, she rocked a bodysuit that’s currently on sale for just $48. Recently, the New York Times faced backlash for an article that discussed Swift’s sexuality. A member of Swift’s team told CNN that they believe the article was published due to sexism and unethical practices.

“Due to her immense popularity, Taylor Swift has left a significant impact on people’s views and values,” stated the individual. “It is unlikely that an article like this would have been published about Shawn Mendes or any male artist facing questions about their sexuality.” Swift’s upcoming performances in Edinburgh this June are part of her Eras Tour. These shows mark her first appearances in the UK during this tour, with a total of 10 scheduled dates across the country, including concerts in Liverpool, Cardiff, and London.

In 2023, Taylor Swift claimed the second and third positions on the UK album chart with albums that were not even released in the previous year. The British Phonographic Industry’s data revealed that Swift’s album “Midnights,” which came out in 2022, secured the second spot as one of the most popular albums in the UK in 2022. Following closely behind was the reimagined version of her 2014 album “1989,” known as “1989 (Taylor’s Version),” taking the third spot on the chart.
