Taylor Swift is known for embedding secret meanings in her lyrics, and it appears she does the same with her outfits. At the 2025 Grammy Awards, the 35-year-old pop star wore a ruched red dress with a slit over her left thigh, drawing attention to a Lorraine Schwartz 'T' charm necklace. Fans speculated the 'T' stood for her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, referencing her song lyrics as 'proof'.
Swift has a history of using fashion to hint at her romantic life. In 2014, she wore a 1975 band t-shirt, signalling a fling with frontman Matty Healy. Healy had worn a Taylor Swift 1989 shirt on stage earlier that month, and the pair exchanged phone numbers. Swift posted an Instagram video captioned with a lyric from The 1975's 'The City', and they briefly dated in 2023.
In 2018, Swift wore a Tiffany & Co. 'J' charm necklace, seemingly referencing her then-boyfriend Joe Alwyn. The necklace appeared in her 'Delicate' video, and she sang about 'his initial on a chain round my neck' in her song 'Call It What You Want'. Swift and Alwyn dated for six years before splitting in 2023.
