Taylor Swift’s dress accidentally opened up during one of her concert performances. The “unflattering” moment, captured by a concertgoer, has sparked criticism from observers. Some believe that the star’s dress mishap might have been purposeful for attention. This comes shortly after Swift sparked pregnancy rumors with her bikini snaps.
Superstar musician Taylor Swift experienced a slight wardrobe malfunction while performing for her fans on stage. Footage from the third night of her Eras Tour concert in Stockholm, Sweden showed Swift’s blue flowy dress opening up to reveal her gold bralette and sparkly black shorts.
The shocking moment happened when the blonde performer was just about to sit down at her piano and serenade the vast crowd. Handling the situation as best as she could, the “Shake It Off” artist quickly re-fastened her ensemble and sat down to give a sweet and exclusive rendition of her song “How Did It End?”
Despite Swift’s beautiful performance, which was met with nothing but ear-piercing screams of cheer and singalongs, many people who saw the video shared on TikTok by a concertgoer expressed disdain for the dress mishap.

The wave of criticism continued with other people asserting that Swift may have purposefully allowed her dress to come undone. “It looks intentional,” said a Facebooker. Another added, “Well she is used to taking her clothes off soo.” Joining the vitriol bandwagon, someone else criticized, “She’s a hot mess [and] has been!”
Though the singer received a lot of flak for what happened, her beloved Swifties came to her rescue. “It happens! She handled it with grace ♥️ 👏 👏,” commended a fan. Another admirer praised, “whatever she was wearing under it was nice too.”
For someone who—as PR and brand expert Andy Barr puts it—”is playing a savvy game when it comes to dressing like an everyday person,” Swift’s style is often spotlighted in the media. According to fashion expert Clemmie Fieldsend, “Taylor never really dresses to the occasion,” despite her over a billion-dollar empire.
However, preferring a more demure and laid-back style does not mean that the “Love Story” talent is afraid to step out of her comfort zone from time to time. She is well-versed in leaving people guessing, whether that’s done through her music or choice of clothing.
A popular fashion outlet that did a profile on her style earlier this year spoke about how Taylor Swift often uses what she wears to indicate that she has something in the works.
In this way, she sometimes uses clothes to represent what is taking place in her life, like when she proudly wears her footballer beau’s team sweater while supporting him at his games.When Swift is not busy being the supportive girlfriend at Travis Kelce’s matches, both she and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end spend their time doing other adorable couple activities like going away on vacation together. The duo was spotted in the Bahamas in March, where Swift sparked public speculation that she may have a little bun in the oven.
