Taylor Swift's 2024 Grammys Dress Confirms She's Back To Her Sexiest Era

Taylor Swift has had an incredible year and was strutting her bad self at the 2024 Grammy Awards. Between her Eras Tour and her much-hyped relationship with Travis Kelce, we can't blame the musician for embracing her life. Time even named her Person of the Year for 2023 — to say she's in her heyday would be an understatement. 

"I've been raised up and down the flagpole of public opinion so many times in the last 20 years," she told the outlet. "I've been given a tiara, then had it taken away ... It feels like the breakthrough moment of my career, happening at 33. And for the first time in my life, I was mentally tough enough to take what comes with that." Considering that her Eras Tour became the highest-grossing tour of all time after grossing over one billion dollars, we have to agree.

Swift was nominated for six Grammy Awards for 2023: best pop vocal album, best pop solo performance, best pop duo/group performance, record of the year, song of the year, and album of the year (which she won), per Forbes. In case anyone didn't notice her as one of the final red carpet entrances, her slightly late arrival to the award ceremony showed that Swift is now in her sexiest era. 

Giving absolute Greek goddess vibes in cream, Taylor Swift arrived at the 2024 Grammy Awards in an exquisite Schiaparelli couture gown. With a slit all the way up to her thigh, cascading necklaces, and Audrey Hepburn-esque black gloves, Swift owned the red carpet. Fans were quick to clamor over her confident couture moment. 

One fan on X, formerly known as Twitter, further embraced Swift's confidence with her stunning red carpet moment. "taylor swift in this mob wife wedding dress aesthetic makes me hope she announces reputation then throws the mic like a football to travis kelce in the back of the grammys and is like 'also I am engaged to that jock,'" they wrote. Other users like cmartineztx also alluded that the dress should indicate that Swift will announce "Reputation (Taylor's Version)" at the awards show.  

Even Grammys host Trevor Noah couldn't let Swift take her seat quickly and quietly as she wandered in a little late. "Are you seeing what's happening right now?" Noah quipped in his opener (via swifferupdates). "As Taylor Swift moves through the room, the local economy around those tables improves."

When Taylor Swift walked the red carpet at the Grammys, fans were honing their detective skills to decode any Easter eggs the pop star may have sprinkled throughout her look. A custom-made Lorraine Schwartz watch turned into a choker conveniently set to midnight had many wondering if Swift was going to make a big announcement at 12am or if it was simply a nod to her nominated album. And amid the speculation that the "Look What You Made Me Do" singer was re-releasing her "Reputation" album, fans wondered if her black-and-white ensemble confirmed their suspicions. "There will be no explanation just Taylor Swift announcing Reputation (Taylor's Version) during her 13th Grammy win. That's the tweet!" a fan wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Much to everyone's surprise, when Swift took the stage after winning best pop vocal album for "Midnights," she announced that she had secretly been working on a new album for two years and will drop on April 19. "It's called 'The Tortured Poets Department.' I'm gonna go and post the cover right now backstage. Thank you. I love you. Thank you." Sure enough, Swift posted the cover of the upcoming album, which revealed a black-and-white photo of the singer-songwriter laying back against white pillows. It's safe to say that Swift is officially now in her "Tortured Poets Department" era.
