Career Transition to Pop

When Swift was shifting from country music to pop, a lot changed for her in terms of fashion. Glitz, glamour, and sequined dresses, bold colors, and edgy designs define this era of her new path in music.

Reputation Era

The “Reputation” era was such a defining moment in the career of this artist, accompanied by a new identity—darker and much more rebellious. The exhibition parades dramatic outfits worn in the period, from snake-themed attire to the iconic black leather ensembles.
