Taylor Swift is a fan of heavy-set, eyebrow-skimming bangs. And over the years, her fringe style has defined eras all on its own—maybe even more than her signature red lip or her feline flick of eyeliner.
Stepping out in New York last night for dinner with friends at Zero Bond (a firm T-Swift fave), Swift stepped out for dinner with thicker bangs that naturally flicked to the side, encasing her brows and melting into her tousled, chest-length honey blonde hair. The cut feels distinctly retro, and off-set her tailored, millennial-in-the-office leaning look: Swift wore a Stella McCartney peplum poplin white shirt cinched with a skinny black belt, flowing tailored trousers, a Fendi Peekaboo ISeeU bag, and The Row’s Awar sandals.

This fresh cut falls in line with Taylor Swift’s very subtle recent style shift. In a slew of sightings in New York, the pop star has established a more minimalist and neutral wardrobe: CBK-coded silk top and skirt sets via quiet luxury fave The Row, LWDs and LBDs. It’s certainly a decided move away from the Life of a Showgirl era—is this a pre-wedding palate cleanse?
