Taylor Swift Arrives at the VMAs in a Slinky Black Dress and Layers of Gold Jewelry
Taylor Swift reached a career peak this year, thanks to her re-recorded Taylor's Version albums and Eras World Tour. So naturally, she's leading the nominees list at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards.
To attend tonight's award show, Swift dressed in her best hitmaker attire: a slinky black dress and layers of gold and diamond jewelry. The little black dress features an asymmetric neckline, ruched details, and golden buttons throughout, including across the bodice. It also includes a super high leg slit—very Reputation era of Swift. She paired it with strappy black sandals.
For jewelry, the pop star layered various golden chains and diamond choker necklaces of varying sizes; she also wore glimmering diamond cluster earrings and several bracelets and rings.
In-line with her sultry black-and-gold look, Swift opted for inky black eyeshadow, a dramatic cat eye, a glossy pink lip, a glittery golden manicure, and a wavy rocker hairdo.
Swift is nominated in eight categories tonight: Video of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Video, Best Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Visual Effects, and Best Art Direction—all for her “Anti-Hero” music video—as well as Artist of the Year. The other Artist of the Year nominees are SZA, Doja Cat, Karol G, Shakira, and Beyoncé.
As for Song of the Year, she is up against Miley Cyrus's “Flowers,” Olivia Rodrigo's “Vampire,” Rema and Selena Gomez's “Calm Down,” Sam Smith and Kim Petras's “Unholy,” Steve Lacy's “Bad Habit,” and SZA's “Kill Bill.”
