Taylor Swift literally had a mountain to climb when she set out to plan the costumes for the Mountain of Taylor Swiftâs Past in the âLook What You Made Me Doâ music video. Her official YouTube channel released another behind-the-scenes video in the run-up to the November 10 release of her album Reputation, and this time, she takes fans on a tour of her old costumes.
âWelcome to wardrobe land,â Swift says. âThis is where the apocalypse of clothing has all congregated.â A pan around the packed room gives a sartorial summary of her extensive, 13-year-long career.
âEssentially, Iâve just done the longest fitting of my entire life,â she says while sheâs dressed down in a black hoodie. âOne of the craziest things about this video is that itâs kind of like calling back to looks of previous album cycles.â
âThis is where we have the world of what weâre picking from the archives,â she says while holding her âNot a Lot Going On at the Momentâ shirt from her â22â music video, which sits next to her blue dress from the âOur Songâ music video her cheerleading outfit from âShake It Off.â She said her team was picking which of her past looks they wanted to highlight for a âlittle sarcastic look down memory lane.â
She sits next to extras in her previous fashion choices while she wears her pajama outfit from âYou Belong With Me,â covered in the names of squad members Lena Dunham, Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid. She goes down the line, naming where each outfit is from. When she turns to her crew members in the back, she jokes, âAnd you guys arenât wearing any of my clothes so you canât help me.â
She ends the costume tour by showing off a gold chain. âI am very, very, very excited,â she says. âAnd furthermore, I get to go home and eat Chinese food with my cats.â
