Karlie Kloss Inspires Taylor's 1989 Tour Wardrobe

Taylor Swift's wardrobe is often influenced by her boyfriends and friends - Karlie wears a black turtleneck, Taylor wears a black turtleneck. Calvin wears a khaki tee, Taylor wears a khaki tee. You get the idea. Her 1989 tour kicked off in Tokyo, Japan this week and it looks like her tour wardrobe has been inspired by a certain best friend - Karlie Kloss.

During her set Taylor wore a full length, sparkly catsuit, much like the one Karlie wore on the runway at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show back in 2013.

Her circle of friends have a starring role in her 1989 world tour. Instead of a support act, Taylor opened the show with a video with comments from some of her best buddies, including Selena Gomez and the Haim girls.

The crop top connoisseur didn’t ditch her signature look for long, and with 10 outfit changes, there was no shortage of Taylor’s midriff on show. From sequined bomber jacket and tuxes, to metallic mini skirts and glittery boots, the show was all about sparkles.

And it wasn’t just her wardrobe that was shimmering, as every seat had a lit-up wristband so the crowd changed colour in unison. Taylor kicked off the show with ‘Welcome to New York’, complete with neon NYC backdrop.

The show included all-male dancers, chats with the audience, stripped down songs on the guitar and piano, and of course, Taylor shaking it off.
