Yes, she literally covered herself in jewels.
If you’ve yet to witness Taylor Swift’s music video for “Bejeweled,” you’re missing out: The pop superstar delivers a fashion fantasy filled with glimmering, glamorous looks. Her new style era for Midnights has been all about embracing such a glitzy aesthetic—her crystal Oscar de la Renta dress at this year’s VMAs being a prime example—and Swift only continued this disco ball energy with her striking look at the MTV EMAs in Duesseldorf, Germany tonight (the European version of the music awards ceremony). As someone who’s nominated for six awards this evening—including best artist—you didn’t expect her not to bust out a statement look, did you? In the end, Taylor won all: best artist, best video, best pop and best long-form video for “All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor’s Version).”
Swift’s latest bling-y look is courtesy of London designer David Koma: She wore his sleek black bodysuit with a bold caged skirt, which was punctuated with tons of emerald gems. His fall 2022 collection included more of these jewel-style pieces. By quite literally dripping in gems, it was an obvious nod to her hit “Bejeweled.” You could say she dressed like a real winner of the night, even before collecting any awards. The look alone demands an acceptance speech.
