Overview
- Swift was photographed leaving Chez Margaux in New York City on October 30 wearing a high ponytail braided into an extra-long fishtail with her signature bangs.
- Images published by People and shared by DeuxMoi show the braid’s unusual length and fullness, leading outlets to speculate she used extensions.
- She paired the hairstyle with a head-to-toe chocolate-brown look featuring a Magda Butrym leather bomber, a sweater mini-dress, suede knee-high boots, and a Louis Vuitton Camera box bag.
- Coverage frames the style as a deliberate cue in the promotional rollout for her album Life of a Showgirl, emphasizing a showgirl-inflected aesthetic.
- Vogue situates the look within a wider 2000s braid revival seen on Katie Holmes, Millie Bobby Brown, and Cardi B, noting Swift also wore near waist-length hair on Late Night with Seth Meyers earlier in October.
