What will Taylor Swift’s wedding guests wear to the event of the century?
As rumors swirl about her imminent New York City nuptials, megastar Taylor Swift – a master at controlling her public image – has kept any details under wraps.
Swift, 36, who has been mum on the subject, may be marrying Kansas City Chiefs football star Travis Kelce, 36, on Friday. They were engaged in August 2025.
Despite the apparent location – Madison Square Garden in the middle of crowded, bustling Manhattan – the event remains mysterious: Will it really be Friday? How do you transform the giant sports venue into a wedding one? Will there really be a castle? Who’s invited?
But for the invitees (a rumored 1,100 guests) – here’s the most important question: What are you wearing?
Some possible guests – a few spotted in New York this week – are likely to lean into softer, but also very classic, traditional and clean styles favored by Swift, fashion editor Savannah Bradley, told the BBC.
“I imagine everything will be very polished, pristine – again, romantic is that key word,” she said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if you see a lot of Gucci, a lot of Jonathan Anderson’s Dior.”
Swift’s celebrity friend group – Selena Gomez, Suki Waterhouse, the Haim sisters, Cara Delevingne, Jack Antonoff, Sabrina Carpenter among them – reflects diverse tastes.
Nola Ojomu, an entertainment journalist, noted Carpenter’s “distinctive old Hollywood glamour style” that will likely be her “choice of look for the wedding”.
Some reports suggested a black tie dress code, complete with top hats for men and evening gloves for women. Us Weekly also reported, citing an unnamed insider, that guests were told the theme was “whimsical”.
“Suki Waterhouse’s natural boho style lends perfectly to the rumoured theme, and she is sure to have one of the more distinctive looks on the night along with the likes of Cara Delevingne,” Ojomu said.
She predicted guests in “vibrant shades and flowy dresses”, popular at summer New York weddings.
“Lighter lace material has made a comeback recently, as well as dresses with a chic multiway neck scarf.”
