She accessorized with knee-high black Stuart Weitzman boots and fingerless black gloves with cutouts.<\/p>\n<p>Some fans thought the edgy look proved the pop star was preparing to announce the release of <em>Reputation (Taylor\u2019s Version)<\/em> during the awards ceremony, but the evening came and went with no such declaration. Swift\u2019s plaid looks didn\u2019t end there, though. Later that month, the singer wore a pleated plaid miniskirt and a cropped black long-sleeve top while getting dinner with pal <strong>Gigi Hadid<\/strong> in New York City.<\/p>\n<p>In October, Swift donned a plaid, off-the-shoulder Vivienne Westwood dress \u2014 along with glittery temporary freckles on her nose and cheeks \u2014 to cheer on boyfriend <strong>Travis Kelce<\/strong> during a Kansas City Chiefs vs. New Orleans Saints game.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/The-Wildest-Fan-Theories-About-Why-Taylor-Swift-Keeps-Wearing-Plaid-3.jpg?w=1000&amp;quality=40&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"The Wildest Fan Theories About Why Taylor Swift Keeps Wearing Plaid\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Swift has also been rocking a lot of checkers, a close cousin of plaid. On Tuesday, November 19, she stepped out in NYC with friends <strong>Este Haim<\/strong> and <strong>Ashley Avignone<\/strong> wearing a black and white checkered mini skirt and a matching calf-length coat. She also wore a red and black Versace houndstooth skirt and blazer during a Chiefs game earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p>Checkers and plaid for fall isn\u2019t exactly groundbreaking, but Swift is the queen of Easter eggs, which means her fans are often convinced that her every move <em>means something<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Keep scrolling for the wildest fan theories about why Swift keeps wearing plaid:<\/p>\n<h3>A \u2018So High School\u2019 Music Video Is Coming<\/h3>\n<p>One TikTok user pointed out another trend when analyzing the plaid streak: the string of Instagram posts that Swift has recently shared in which she is wearing yellow. The fan questioned whether the yellow and the plaid \u2014 and specifically the yellow plaid dress that Swift wore to the VMAs \u2014 could be a nod to Cher Horowitz\u2019s iconic ensemble in the 1995 film <em>Clueless<\/em>.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/The-Wildest-Fan-Theories-About-Why-Taylor-Swift-Keeps-Wearing-Plaid-2.jpg?w=1000&amp;quality=40&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"The Wildest Fan Theories About Why Taylor Swift Keeps Wearing Plaid\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWhen I see yellow plaid, I\u2019m gonna think of Cher from <em>Clueless<\/em>, which was a high school movie. So, does that mean it\u2019s a \u2018So High School\u2019 music video coming?\u201d the TikTok user theorized.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo High School,\u201d which is a track from Swift\u2019s album <em>The Tortured Poets Department<\/em>, is believed to be about Kelce.<\/p>\n<h3>Swift\u2019s Rumored Lost Album Is Coming<\/h3>\n<p>Swifties have long speculated that there\u2019s a lost album called <em>Karma<\/em> that Swift worked on and scrapped between 2014\u2019s <em>1989<\/em> and 2017\u2019s <em>Reputation<\/em>. Fans believe it was supposed to be released in 2016 before Swift\u2019s feud with <strong>Kanye West<\/strong> and <strong>Kim Kardashian<\/strong> caused her to temporarily retreat from public life.<\/p>\n<p>In the spring of 2016, Swift debuted a brand new look, cutting her hair short and dying it bleach blonde. Some fans think that transformation was supposed to signify a new musical era \u2014 one that never saw the light of day.<\/p>\n<p>The music video for \u201cThe Man,\u201d a single from Swift\u2019s 2019 album, <em>Lover<\/em>, seemed to point to the existence of <em>Karma<\/em>. In one frame, Swift, dressed up as a dude, pees on the wall of a subway station. The titles of all Swift\u2019s albums are written in graffiti on the wall, along with the word \u201ckarma.\u201d Directly next to the word \u201ckarma\u201d is a sign that reads, \u201cMissing. If found, return to Taylor Swift,\u201d which led some fans to conclude that <em>Karma<\/em> is the name of a missing album.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/The-Wildest-Fan-Theories-About-Why-Taylor-Swift-Keeps-Wearing-Plaid-4.jpg?w=1000&amp;quality=40&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"The Wildest Fan Theories About Why Taylor Swift Keeps Wearing Plaid\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>One TikTok user theorized that since Swift\u2019s plaid patterns are \u201ctwo colors crossing each other,\u201d the singer could be gearing up to release two albums from two different eras.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s wearing two colors crossing over. Are we crossing over eras?\u201d the fan wondered. \u201c<em>Reputation<\/em> <em>[Taylor\u2019s Version<\/em>] and<em> Karma<\/em> absolutely could be dropped together.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Swift\u2019s Next Album Will Be a Rock Album<\/h3>\n<p>Many of Swift\u2019s recent looks are either Vivienne Westwood brand or look very similar to the designer\u2019s work from the 1990s. One TikTok user speculated that the outfits could mean Swift is heading into her \u201890s era and plans to release a grunge rock album. The fan also theorized that Swift\u2019s rumored lost album could be a \u201890s rock album that was meant to follow <em>1989<\/em>\u2019s nod to \u201880s pop.<\/p>\n<h3>A New \u2018Evermore\u2019 Music Video Is Coming<\/h3>\n<p>Even though it\u2019s been almost four years since Swift dropped <em>Evermore<\/em> in December 2020, one fan guessed that the copious amounts of plaid are a nod to the album. In a TikTok video, the fan pointed out that Swift wore a plaid jacket on the album\u2019s cover and sang mashups that included <em>Evermore<\/em> songs at all three <em>Eras Tour<\/em> Toronto shows in November.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat if we\u2019re getting another <em>Evermore<\/em> music video?\u201d the TikTok user guessed. \u201cWould that be random? Or would it make sense?\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Swift Is Gearing Up to Release \u2018Taylor Swift (Taylor\u2019s Version)\u2019<\/h3>\n<p>While fans have been itching for <em>Reputation (Taylor\u2019s Version)<\/em> for years at this point, some fans think that Swift\u2019s fashion choices indicate that she\u2019s releasing the rerecording of her titular debut album first.<\/p>\n<p>As one TikTok user pointed out, plaid makes an appearance in two music videos from the <em>Taylor Swift<\/em> era. In the \u201cOur Song\u201d video, Swift\u2019s pillowcase is a yellow plaid that looks very similar to the dress she wore to the VMAs. In \u201cTim McGraw,\u201d Swift\u2019s love interest wears a plaid button down shirt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlaid is obviously very, like, synonymous with country [and] flannel,\u201d the TikTok user said, concluding that it would make sense for plaid to represent Swift\u2019s \u201cmost country album.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taylor Swift is wearing a lot of plaid lately, and some fans think there\u2019s more to the trend than an affinity for the pattern<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":12430,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12426","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Taylor Swift has had quite a few plaid shirt days lately ... and #Swifties have taken notice!
