Taylor Swift may have been performing the Eras Tour in major cities around the world since March 2023, but next month she’s finally coming to the UK.
If you’re a fellow Swiftie, you’ll know that part of the Eras Tour experience is to dress up as a certain “era” of Taylor Swift’s long-standing music history. Each era coincides with one of her 11 studio albums, from the indie tones of Folklore to the popular belters of 1989.
But, it’s difficult to figure out what to wear when all your spare cash is going towards your hotel and transport for the concert, and you’re rapidly running out of time to get organised! Right?
Not to worry. No matter what your favourite era, I’ve got you covered with these Eras Tour outfits that will help you stand out from the crowd without breaking the bank.
Friendship bracelets at the ready!

The Perfect Eras Tour Outfits Accessory
True Swifties wear and trade friendship bracelets at Taylor Swift shows as part of the communal experience. These serve as the perfect accessory to your Eras Tour outfits.
This primarily comes from the song You’re On Your Own, Kid from Midnights with the lyrics: “So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it.”
However, rumour has it, Taylor used to wear an armful of friendship bracelets during her earlier shows (think debut and fearless eras) so fans started wearing them too.
Either way, don’t forget yours if you’re seeing her this summer!

Final Thoughts on Eras Tour Outfits
Nobody’s saying you have to dress in an era of Taylor’s music for the Eras Tour, but it is all part of the fun. You don’t have to stick to one era too — you can mix and match based on what you already have in your wardrobe.
If like me you weren’t lucky enough to get tickets, these Eras Tour outfits are still great for tribute nights, watch parties or maybe even just a regular Saturday night!
Enjoy, Swifties!
