The Special Edition Looks
During the Eras Tour, Taylor wore several custom Atelier Versace bodysuits that completely stole our hearts.
These designs, in colors such as hot pink and tangerine, evolved throughout the tour, reflecting the themes of love and passion found in the Lover album. Each outfit added luxury and energy, becoming iconic moments in her performances.
1. Fringe Tassels and Beading by Versace
Later in the Eras Tour, Taylor introduced a version of her Versace bodysuit with purple fringe tassels and beading. This added versatility and texture, making her performance more engaging.
The fringe swayed as she moved, while the beading created a shimmering effect that matched the ethereal vibes of the Lover set.
2. Blue and Gold Bodysuit
Taylor also debuted a bodysuit adorned with blue and gold jewels, offering a regal and vibrant look. The blue matched the Lover album’s dreamy mood, while the gold accents added an opulent touch, uplifting her stage presence with an immaculate color contrast.

A hot pink version of the bodysuit embraced bold color choices that perfectly aligned with the “Lover” themes of love and passion.
This eye-catching color brought a peppy energy to the set, making her performances even more lively and reflecting the intense emotions of the album.
4. Tangerine Bodysuit
A tangerine-hued bodysuit brought a fresh twist to the “Lover” set.
The bright orange added an energetic vibe to her performances, reflecting the playful and joyful spirit of the album, while providing a burst of color that kept the look zesty and fun.
5. Black Pinstripe Blazer with Sequins for Special Shows
For select performances, Taylor switched things up with a black pinstripe blazer adorned with sequins. This variation brought a classic and elegant aura while still incorporating the signature sparkle of the tour.
The pinstripes gave the blazer a sleek, classy feel, and the sequins added just the right amount of “shimmer”.
6. Metallic Finishes Depending on the Bodysuit Underneath
The metallic finishes of Taylor’s blazers were chosen based on the bodysuit she wore underneath. Whether it was a tangerine, silver, blue, or metallic pink finish, the blazers were carefully matched to complement the rest of her outfit.
These shimmering tones added depth and dimension to the ensemble, ensuring that each performance had its own unique flair while still remaining cohesive.
Eras Tour Inspired Lover Dresses
Now here’s where it gets fun. You absolutely can recreate this magical Lover era energy without breaking the bank or having access to custom Versace (unfortunately).
Multiple Swifties have created tutorials for making their own version of the Lover bodysuit, and honestly, some of these DIY versions are stunning:
What you’ll need:
- A basic bodysuit in white, pale blue, or cream
- Tons of rhinestones in various sizes (SS16 Crystal, Blue Moonlight, Aquamarine work great)
- Sequins in gold, silver, and pastels
- Austrian crystal beads for that extra sparkle
- Patience, like a LOT of patience
Pro tips from fellow Swifties:
- Don’t worry about getting the exact rhinestone placement: Taylor’s bodysuits change from show to show anyway
- Focus on that pink and blue color scheme
- One fan bought a plain black bodysuit and had a friend glue on tons of jewels to create the perfect DIY version.
Color palette to stick with:
- Soft pinks and blues (obviously)
- Lavender and mint green
- Champagne gold and rose gold
- Cream and pearl white
- Any pastel that makes you think of cotton candy and daydreams
Budget-Friendly Shopping Recommendations
Want to wear something beyond the bodysuits and blazers. There are many other options to explore.
Pastel Mini Lover Dresses: Think baby pink, soft lavender, and sky blue. Anything that makes you feel like you’re floating on a cloud while listening to Daylight works perfectly.
We recommended options like the exclusive head in clouds dress from One Loved Babe.
Sequin and Sparkle Options: Holographic or iridescent fabrics that shift colors in the light or two-tone sequin dresses that change from pink to blue are major Lover vibes. Anything with heart-shaped details or romantic ruffles works well.
Amazon has surprisingly good sequin bodysuits and dresses. We recommend options like the Allegra K Women’s Glitter Sequin Dress or the Sequin Bodysuit Swimsuit Sparkle Costume Tour Outfit.
The Blazer Dress Route: Channel that Man energy with oversized blazer dresses in metallics or sequinned blazer sets. Power suits in pastel colors with sparkly details also get the job done. Visit thrift stores for blazers, and you can create your own with rhinestones.
Bringing your lover’s era dreams into your wardrobe isn’t as tough as you think. You need to look into the right places and have the right vision.
To Conclude
Look, we might not all have Taylor’s custom Versace budget, but we can capture the unbelievable magic she brings to the stage every single night.
The most important thing isn’t having the exact designer pieces or fancy lover dresses; it’s about channeling that feeling of pure joy and romance that the Lover era represents.
After all, isn’t that what being a Swiftie is all about?
