Taylor Swift Just Wore the Perfect Wedding Guest Dress

When Taylor Swift is a guest at a wedding, it's easy to guess whose dress is the second most talked-about (after the bride's, of course). In this case, the wedding was for Swift's longtime friend and producer Jack Antonoff to actress and Chanel ambassador Margaret Qualley. The wedding took place in a New Jersey beach town, and based on the photos I've seen, I'd call it a classic, semi-formal affair—and Swift dressed accordingly, opting for a light-blue lace midi dress by Erdem (which is now on sale, but it's going fast).

The romantic dress, with its corseted bodice and ruffled skirt, is as perfect for a wedding as it gets. And whilst there are many on-trend elements to Swift's dress, it's the balconette detail that makes the most impact, in my opinion at least. Balconette dresses feature bra-style (often underwired) cups, and it's a pretty, lingerie-inspired trend I've seen a lot of lately.
