Taylor Swift Is Covered In Jewels On The 2022 MTV VMAs Red Carpet

Theydies and gentlethems, Taylor Swift has arrived! The pop music/fashion icon walked the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards black carpet positively dripping in both swag and jewels.

The musician sparkled from head to toe, donning a sleeveless, crystal-covered dress with matching jewel-encrusted peep-toe heels and bejweled makeup.

Swift’s Oscar de la Renta ’fit was the embodiment of “diamonds are a girl’s best friend,” comprising a minidress made entirely of rhinestone chains that draped down her shoulders and back — in other words, a full-body statement necklace.

Fashion Twitter was quick to notice that Swift’s chandelier-esque ensemble closely resembled the iconic bathtub scene from her “Look What You Made Me Do” music video — a favorite from her 2017 Reputation album in which the artist is seen literally bathing in diamonds in a highly-memed scene. Had she gotten out of that tub, this is the outfit that would have emerged.

Not for nothing, Swift is nominated for five awards this year, including Video of the Year for the short film for “All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor's Version)” from Red (Taylor's Version).

Up until she dazzled fans with her glitzy glam, it was unclear whether or not she would be in attendance at all. But this gives me hope that we are in for another Swifty moment this evening (BRB, manifesting a surprise performance).
