It’s a regular practice for Taylor Swift fans to analyze her wardrobe choices as possible Easter eggs, and her appearance at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards were no different.
Swift initially arrived to the award show in a yellow and black look accessorized with long, leather fingerless gloves and thigh-high leather boots. She was styled by Joseph Cassell Falconer in the plaid corset dress by Christian Dior, Check The Tag reports.

Online, Swifties immediately began to speculate that the pop star is signaling a return to her “Reputation” era.
“Taylor is definitely announcing Reputation (Taylor’s Version) tonight,” @wickednewshub posted on X.
“IT’S GIVING REPUTATION-” @heytaybrina also wrote.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting the next of the singer’s “Taylor’s Version” albums. Swift has been re-recording her first six records in an effort reclaim her music when those masters were sold to Scooter Braun’s company in 2019. Swift only has two albums remaining to re-record: 2016’s “Reputation” and her 2006 self-titled debut, “Taylor Swift.”
But the fashion analysis didn’t stop there: About an hour into the VMAs, Swift made a wardrobe change, swapping her plaid dress for a shorter, sparkly one with hints of green and silver. It included a UFO design on the front — which could also be a nod to her newer song “Down Bad,” performed with UFO imagery on her “Eras Tour.”

Sadly for her fans, Swift did not announce “Reputation (Taylor’s Version) at the VMAs, instead using her final speech after winning video of the year for “Fortnight” to thank her team, fans and boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
After the ceremony, fans took to the internet to joke about falling for yet another Swiftie red herring.
In fact, Swifties have fallen for so many misdirects for “Rep (TV)” in the past, that they’ve taken to calling it “clowning.”
“3 years in a row Swifties clowing for rep tv is so funny,” @swiftieboston tweeted.
“another vmas no rep tv,” @carowhinelc joked with a photo of a scene from the 2005 film “Pride and Prejudice” with actor Matthew Macfadyen’s Mr. Darcy looking exceptionally depressed at a party as others laugh around him.
Had Swift announced the album at the award ceremony, it would not have been the first time. Earlier this year at the Grammy Awards, she announced “The Tortured Poets Department” after winning best pop album. Fans thought some of her hints for that album were for “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” — but it was all a misdirect.
Swift also announced her “Midnights” album at the 2022 VMAs while accepting the award for video of the year for “All Too Well (Taylor’s Version).”
Currently, Swift is on a break from her “Eras Tour” and was spotted in New York City at the U.S. Open with her beau, Travis Kelce, this past weekend. She also attended the Chiefs-Ravens game at Arrowhead Stadium on Sept. 5.
