Taylor Swift, currently dating NFL star Travis Kelce, recently faced criticism from some media outlets for her choice of dress as a wedding guest, with accusations that she wore a color considered inappropriate for the occasion.
The controversy began when a video of Swift and Kelce arriving at the wedding reception went viral. Some outlets suggested that Swift’s dress, adorned with vibrant, colorful flowers, was too attention-seeking. However, her fans quickly jumped to her defense, pointing out that the dress did not violate any wedding dress code rules and was not light-colored.
Supporters also noted that the bride, Karen Elson, had approved cream-colored outfits for the event, making the criticism unfounded. Despite some fashion articles suggesting that guests should avoid white or light colors to keep the focus on the bride, fans argued that Swift’s outfit did not upstage the bride.
The situation escalated when an article speculated that Swift might have carried a blue purse to follow the “something blue” tradition meant for brides, accusing her of trying to steal the spotlight. Fans dismissed this claim as a reach, saying it was unfair to criticize Swift for embracing a tradition unrelated to her.
Ultimately, Swift was praised for her bold fashion choice, with many admiring her confidence in breaking conventional wedding fashion rules. Her fans celebrated her daring style, suggesting it takes true self-assurance to stand out in such a way.
