Taylor Swift's Leggy Outfit at the VMAs After-Party Kicked Off Her Midnights Era

Taylor Swift's Midnights era has officially entered the chat. While accepting her Video of the Year award at tonight's MTV Video Music Awards, she casually dropped the news that her next album, Midnights, will be released on October 21. Considering that Swift churned out two entire albums and a 10-minute video for "All Too Well" during the pandemic, no one was expecting another album so soon—but leave it to Swift to keep her fans on their toes.

As you probably already know, Swift loves a good fashion theme and always dresses according to the vibe of her newest album. And her outfit at the VMAs after-party was quite the literal interpretation. She changed from her red carpet outfit into a starry, midnight-blue romper with glittering, sky-high platform heels and a furry jacket. And we should expect to see plenty more blue hues and celestial themes in Swift's wardrobe as the Midnights release date approaches. Scroll down to see her VMAs after-party outfit.

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
