Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you have likely heard the news that the mother of modern country rock music, Taylor Swift, is all set to enter a new music era. The iconic pop star recently announced her upcoming 12th studio album titled ‘ The Life of a Showgirl ’. As the title alone is garnering major attention amongst the Swifties, our eye was solely on her stunning showgirl couture, which screamed vintage drama.
Releasing a series of pictures from her upcoming album, Taylor transforms into a vision of a vintage cabaret girl with a hint of a modern and risqué twist. Owning the frame in a stunning Parisian feather ensemble, she took us back to the 80s and lavishly adorned shimmering headpieces with a statement Parisian touch.


She made heads turn while balancing on one leg with a crystal and peach-orange feather boa, i.e., also known by The Blonds, and draped it neatly over a sequined corset and shoulders. Adding a dramatic headdress perched atop her bob-cut black wig, she made a point to be fearless and captured the very essence of the showgirl spectacle.

Taking it a notch further with dramatic glittery eyes and maroon lips, she wore a stunning pair of bejewelled heels and completed the accessory show with iconic diamond bracelets and a pair of statement stud earrings.

But why are you drawn to the glittering yet false lives of a showgirl?

Taylor Swift is not the only pop star who is set to bring the life of a showgirl in front of the camera. Stars such as Beyoncé, Katy Perry, and Mariah Carey have all taken turns dressing up in the iconic feather garb with stunning headdresses, transporting us to a world where these showgirls were no less than stars emerging on earth from the sky.


But Taylor Swift’s take is all about feminine styling, intricate costume designing, and reigning glittering makeup with the right amount of stage lighting, where she proves that these showgirls are hard-working dancers and the epitome of femininity outside the obvious world of glitz and glam.
