Taylor Swift unveiled her new wax doppelganger at Madame Tussauds in New York City last week.
Unfortunately, the statue doesn’t seem to be a perfect likeness – her hair is the wrong color and texture, and something’s up with that nose. But if they got one thing right, it’s the dress.
The modern update of a beaded flapper dress by Jenny Packham is pure Swift: sweet, swingy, a little bit retro, and classically pretty.
Here’s a look at some of the country crooner’s other dresses. While performing at JFK airport to promote her new album Speak Now, the singer wore a red, swingy dress polka dot dress that looked inspired by Minnie Mouse. She paired the flirty frocks with her ever-present red pout and mismatched heels for another unexpected pop of color.
Swift wore a vintage-inspired gem colored dress for her appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman. Whatever the hue, Taylor Swift’s dresses are as classic and all-American as the starlet herself, and it’s too bad that Madame Tussauds just missed the mark in capturing that.
