Taylor Swift, the pop superstar, has finally launched her long-awaited Eras Tour on March 18th, 2023, at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. This is Swift’s first tour since her Reputation Stadium Tour in 2018, as her 2020 Lover Fest was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, she has released three studio albums and re-recorded two of her previous albums, Fearless and Red. (Also read: Fans react to Lady Gaga’s no makeup look at Oscars 2023 performance)
The Eras Tour promises to take fans on a journey through all of Swift’s musical eras, with the setlist remaining a mystery until the first show. Fans speculated whether she would perform hits from each of her 10 albums chronologically or mix them up to tell a completely different story. The tour has already broken records, with overwhelming demand for tickets causing Ticketmaster to crash, resulting in disappointment for hundreds of thousands of fans. The tour broke the record for the most concert tickets sold by an artist in one day, with 2.4 million sold.
The opening night of the tour gave fans a glimpse of what they can expect. Swift performed a trio of hits from her album Fearless, including “Love Story” and “You Belong With Me,” wearing a gold fringed flapper dress nearly identical to one she wore during her “Speak Now” tour in 2011. She also changed her look for the “Evermore” segment, donning a flowing marigold corset gown by Etro to sing songs like “‘Tis the Damn Season” and “Champagne Problems.”
In addition to performing her greatest hits from each of her past albums, Taylor Swift paid homage to memorable looks from her many style eras through the years. She started the show with a performance of songs from her album Lover, including “Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince” and “Cruel Summer,” while wearing an Atelier Versace bodysuit and Christian Louboutin boots.
