Taylor Swift unveils ‘Fearless’ and ‘Tortured Poets’ dresses in Italy

Taylor Swift unveils ‘Fearless’ and ‘Tortured Poets’ dresses in Italy

Taylor Swift unveiled brand new dresses from the movies “Fearless” and “Tortured Poets,” sending her fans into a frenzy and excited about a possible announcement.

The new outfits were first unveiled in Milan, Italy, a country where the singer-songwriter hasn’t performed in 13 years. The “Fearless” dress mimics the sparkle, shine and fringe of her other outfits from season two, only this one is designed in gold and black tiger stripes.

“I looked at the list of cities we’re touring in and thought, ‘I can’t wait to party with these Italians,'” Swift said at the end of her show in Italy’s fashion capital.

During the performance of “The Tortured Poets Department,” Swift appeared in a white dress reminiscent of the dress from “You’re Ruining My Life,” which she has worn to 31 European shows. In Milan, her dress said, “Who’s afraid of me? You should be.”

Braving the “cruel summer heat” in Italy

The unbearable summer heat continued in Milan. The Italian city has taken a leaf out of Zurich’s book – where Swift played before heading to Italy – in preparation for the heat and implemented similar safety measures to protect fans.

Before the doors of the San Siro stadium opened, workers handed out reflective covers to fans who camped there for hours. According to AccuWeather, the maximum temperature in the Italian city is 30 degrees, with “the risk of dehydration and heat stroke during strenuous activity.”

Swift has made it her mission to keep her fans safe and calls for help when she sees distressed Swifties. On both nights in Zurich, she asked for help mid-song.

In Italy, sprayers on the floor sprayed water droplets onto Swifties and free water was handed out until 6pm, after which fans could purchase water for €3.

F1 drivers in the VIP tent

The three-hour-plus show was watched by two F1 drivers who were taking a break from racing before heading to the Hungarian Grand Prix next week.

Fans spotted Ferrari’s Charles LeClerc and Alpine Racing’s Pierre Gasly in the “Red Lounge,” a VIP tent on the ground. Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce is an investor in Alpine Racing along with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Kelce took part in the F1 Grand Prix of Miami in May before heading to Swift’s 87th show in Paris, where she dedicated her acoustic guitar mashup to him.

The singer will perform in Milan on Sunday before heading to Gelsenkirchen (Germany) for three nights.
