This year’s Costume Institute Gala, also known as the Met Gala, went futuristic to celebrate the opening of the “Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology” exhibition curated by Andrew Bolton. Fashion designers, experts and A-list celebrities came out in full force at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art for the theme, and Taylor Swift was no exception.
Tay, who co-chaired the event with Idris Elba and Anna Wintour, took the tech theme seriously in head-to-toe Louis Vuitton.
The 26-year-old singer turned up in an edgy yet flirty ensemble. She flashed some flesh and paraded her endless legs in a silver textured mini dress, which had contrasting leather panels, a tiered ruffled skirt and a cutout waist.

Taylor amped up the edge and drew more attention to her legs by teaming the frock with a pair of strappy knee-high gladiator sandals, also by Louis Vuitton. She accessorized further with Eva Fehren ring and ear cuff, a Borgioni diamond ring and a pair of Mattia Cielo earrings.
Her tousled platinum blonde lob, burgundy lipstick and dark nail polish completed her sultry, fashion-forward look.

Taylor’s strappy sandals don’t look comfortable, but they’re definitely a perfect addition to her ultramodern getup. They have wide crisscross straps, back-zip fastenings, buckled ankle straps, open toes and about four-inch heels.
