Yay or Nay? Taylor Swift's NYFW Style at Rodarte

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday September 19, 201157 comments


Taylor Swift attended Rodarte's Spring 2012 collection show at New York Fashion Week and she was in good company - also in attendance were Elle and Dakota Fanning and Beyonce and Solange Knowles.

Taylor may have snagged the best parking spot however, seated next to Vogue editor, Anna Wintour. Swift wore a long-sleeved lace and crochet midi dress from Rodarte's Fall 2011 collection.



The waist cinching detail and the flared hemline on the dress flatter her figure - there's the good news!  I don't think I'm wild about the sleeves and the high lacy collar: a little matronly?

Dakota Fanning wore a similar dress to the same event but pulled it off because of a shorter hemline and skipped the sleeves. Maybe Tay's recovering from her Marilyn Monroe-style wardrobe malfunction last month?  We're also a little disappointed with her uninspired hairstyle.

While I usually love Taylor, this look is a nay for me! What do you think?

A few different finishes and this almost looks Gothic Lolia. I'm not a follower of Taylor so I don't know if this is outside her usual personal style, but with a few modifications she could be glamming it up ala Dita Von Teese

I honestly dont like this outfit. It looks a bit grandma-ish. NAY!

I really dont think the dress is pretty but if its just her trying to be bold and stand out then of course I think its awesome.

I love Taylor Swift so I really wanted to love it.. but I say Nay! The dress was a little too much for me even though it was a cute idea! I did love the makeup but the hair was also a nay!

In general, NAY. The makeup is ok, but that dress definitely has to go.
