Swifties, assemble! We’ve got a potential new Easter egg to talk about. And this one’s a good one.
Let’s recap: as we all know, Taylor Swift has been on a much-needed break from The Eras Tour after the European leg wrapped up in late August. But she’ll be back at it for her very last leg, which starts in Miami on Oct. 18 and ends in Vancouver on Dec. 8. She’ll also be performing in New Orleans, Indianapolis, and Toronto.
Because Taylor loves to announce new music at The Eras Tour (and basically invented the concept of an Easter egg), Swifties have kept their eyes peeled for anything telling during this break — specific things that might hint at an announcement during the last leg of her tour.
Like, Taylor announced both Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) and 1989 (Taylor’s Version) at The Eras Tour, as well as several music videos. She has also planned major surprises specifically for the last night of tour legs — on the US leg, it was the 1989 (Taylor’s Version) announcement, and on the European leg, it was the brand-new performance of “Florida!!!” with surprise guest Florence & the Machine. So long story short (LOL), it’s definitely okay to assume we’ll be getting an announcement on the final Eras Tour leg.
Considering ALLLL of this, let’s discuss the newest Easter egg. Basically, ever since her little break began in August, Tay has been making appearances at big events like the VMAs, and of course supporting her boyfriend Travis Kelce at Chiefs games. And one huge way she teases new eras is through her clothing choices.
She’s discussed using clothing as a major way to tease new music in the past, so we know she’s thinking about it! She totally dressed in TTPD fashion in the months leading up to that album’s announcement, and also changed all her 1989 Eras Tour fits to blue right before the 1989 (Taylor’s Version) announcement.
And one unmissable, very apparent thing about her clothing choices recently? There has been a LOT of plaid.
