Overview

• Brooklyn designer Kelsey Randall created crystal-covered chainmail dresses that feature in The Life of a Showgirl imagery and The Fate of Ophelia music video.
• The Ophelia dress is listed for pre-order at $8,500, described by the designer as identical to the version seen on screen.
• The look appears in the video’s finale, which is screening exclusively in movie theaters this weekend.
• Randall says her team ordered thousands of yards of chain fringe and rhinestones and finished one dress in about 13 days.
• Swift’s team commissioned the pieces in secret via Instagram outreach and a meeting with stylist Joseph Cassell Falconer, with the palette echoing her Eras Tour Versace bodysuit.
