On July 13, Taylor Swift made significant changes to her Eras Tour outfits during her performance in Milan, Italy. The singer, known for her glamorous stage attire, surprised fans by debuting two new ensembles, deviating from her traditional looks.
During the Fearless set, Swift typically wears gold and silver dresses. However, she took the stage in a tiger-striped dress with a chevron pattern, eliciting audible gasps from the audience. Additionally, for The Tortured Poets Department set, she usually dons a white Vivienne Westwood corset-styled dress with the lyrics "I love you, it's ruining my life" from 'Fortnight.' This time, she retained the style but replaced the lyrics with "Who's afraid of little old me? You should be."
Fans quickly took to social media to speculate on the reasons behind these changes. One fan tweeted, "Omg new dress in rep style and blue/blue my theory that she's gonna drop a double album with Taylor swift and reputation is more and more true." Another fan commented, "THE NEW DRESS IS SO CUTE KINDA LOOKS LIKE A PINWHEEL." A third observer speculated, "OK NEW FEARLESS DRESS WHICH IS REPUTATION-CODED HMM, SO WHAT IF TAYLOR WEARS A NEW REP-CODED DRESS FOR AN ERA IN EVERY SHOW AND AT THE END SHE'LL FINALLY WEAR A NEW DRESS FOR REPUTATION ERA AND SHE'LL ANNOUNCE REPUTATION TV! ? ! ? CLOWNS, WALK WITH ME."
Fans also noted a change in Swift's gloves during the TTPD set. Traditionally, she wears plain black or white gloves. For the Milan performance, she switched to sequined white and silver gloves, having previously worn sequined black gloves in London.
The new outfits and accessories have led to widespread speculation about a major announcement. Fans believe Swift might announce "Reputation (Taylor's Version)" or debut a new music video. One fan remarked, "Taylor's new dress says 'who's afraid of little old me?' bc we SHOULD fear her and she wants us to know it like she has us in such a chokehold its insane." Another added, "I fear Rep TV is coming, I'm clowning."
