The singer’s recent outfit at Monday Night Football for the Kansas City Chiefs game has sparked heated discussions online.
On October 7, 2024, Taylor Swift made a highly anticipated appearance at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, attending Travis Kelce’s team’s game against the New Orleans Saints. The “Shake It Off” singer reignited public interest not only because she missed two of her boyfriend’s previous matches, but also because of her clothes.

True to her fashion, she paired the look with thigh-high black leather boots, a black crossbody bag, and layers of gold chains. Hoop earrings and her signature bold red lipstick completed the ensemble, while her blonde hair cascaded in its usual messy waves.
