Just call it tortured couture.
Following a two-month break, Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour resumed in Paris, France, on Thursday — and along with adding several songs from her latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” to the already-sprawling setlist, the superstar treated lucky ticket holders to some fresh fashion, too.
Swift performed new tunes “But Daddy I Love Him,” “So High School,” “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” “Down Bad” and “Fortnight” wearing a white taffeta dress with a corseted bodice, dramatic hip draping and her own lyrics (“I love you, it’s ruining my life”) scrawled down the high-low skirt — a custom design by Vivienne Westwood, as the brand confirmed to Page Six Style.
Taylor Swift debuted new costumes for the “Tortured Poets Department” segment of her Eras Tour in Paris on Thursday.
She wore a white taffeta Vivienne Westwood dress with a corseted bodice, dramatic draping and her own lyrics scrawled down the skirt.
She accessorized with one of the house’s signature three-row Orb chokers.
The dress was styled with Victorian-inspired Christian Louboutin lace-up boots.
She accessorized with one of the house’s signature three-row Orb chokers ($720) and, before launching into “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived,” topped off her gown with a matching white trench coat featuring military-style epaulettes and frogging.
Swift then switched things up with an on-stage costume change, stripping down to a second Vivienne Westwood ensemble: a black crystal-embellished bra top and briefs, which she layered beneath a metallic gold tailcoat with black crystal-embellished lapels to close out the “TTPD” section with “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”
The new costumes are perfectly in line with the literature-inspired looks Swift’s been exploring while promoting “TTPD” — think corsets, pleated skirts and plenty of black and white.
“There’s definitely a ‘literary academia’ style that’s going on,” Taylor Swift Style blogger Sarah Chapelle told Page Six Style last month. “The [visuals] are telling a very cohesive story, which is clearly pointing to being inspired by female poets of the past.”
The “Black Dog” singer collaborated with a number of major fashion houses on her stage styles for the Eras Tour, all of which are inspired by her past album aesthetics.

Highlights of the performance include Swift’s bejeweled Atelier Versace bodysuits during the “Lover” segment, her glistening Roberto Cavalli crop top and miniskirt ensembles for the “1989” segment, and the flowing, fluttering Alberta Ferretti gowns that bring ethereal drama to the “Folklore” section.
Furthermore, as Swift will be switching between multiple color versions of each appearance from the aforementioned manufacturers as her tour progresses, more “TTPD” costumes are almost a given to appear at upcoming events.
She performed new tunes “But Daddy I Love Him,” “So High School,” “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” “Down Bad” and “Fortnight” wearing the fresh look.
