She went and picked out a white dress.
Taylor Swiftâs love story with Travis Kelce began a new chapter Friday, with the pop icon and the NFL star both wearing Christian Dior Haute Couture for their wedding ceremony at NYCâs Madison Square Garden.
A representative for Swift confirmed the looks were designed by the French fashion houseâs buzzy new creative director Jonathan Anderson âin close collaborationâ with the newlyweds. This marks Andersonâs first couture bridal gown for a major celebrity, and photos have not yet been released.
According to a statement from the brand, both outfits were created in Diorâs ateliers at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris.
Swiftâs and Kelceâs shoes were custom-made by Christian Louboutin, and the Grammy winner wore Cartier jewelry.
The bride finished her big-day ensemble with her beautiful engagement ring â a custom old mine sparkler designed by Artifex Fine Jewelryâs Kindred Lubeck in collaboration with Kelce, as first reported by Page Six Style.
The couple married in front of 1,000 family members and famous friends. They skipped bridesmaids and groomsmen; instead, Swiftâs brother Austin served as her man of honor, while Jason Kelce was sibling Travisâ best man. Friend Adam Sandler officiated the ceremony.
Dior was one of many houses in the running to design Swiftâs gown for her walk down the aisle, with other top contenders including Ralph Lauren, Stella McCartney, Oscar de la Renta and Vivienne Westwood.
Earlier this week, The Hollywood Reporter published that an Anderson original had likely been selected as the âwinning dress.â
In the months leading up to her wedding, the âOpaliteâ songstress appeared to tease her choice of bridal attire by carrying a series of Dior bags, among them a sleek black Le Cigale at a Knicks game in May and a buttercup yellow Lady Dior in April.
And at the 2024 VMAs, Swift wore a punk plaid ensemble designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri, Andersonâs predecessor at Dior.
Anderson, who joined the luxury label last summer to much fashion-industry fanfare, is the founder of JW Anderson (Swift also toted one of that brandâs purses while in London with Kelce in May) and spent 11 years as Loeweâs creative director.
In April, Page Six exclusively reported that Swift and Kelce â who began dating in 2023 â were set to wed on July 3 in New York City, which the songwriter has called her (primary) home since 2014. Two months later, we confirmed MSG as their chosen venue.
