Taylor Swift’s 2024 MTV Video Music Awards outfits are out of this world.
Swift, 34, ditched her plaid Christian Dior red carpet look for a sparkly minidress while attending the Wednesday, September 11, ceremony, which was held at the UBS Arena in New York City. Her second dress featured a scoop neck, a UFO on her chest, leather buckle straps and a silver and green sequin design.
While the look could have been a hint to her rerecorded Reputation (Taylor’s Version) with its green, black and silver colors, many fans felt it was an ode to her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department. On the record, the singer has a song called “Down Bad,” in which she sings about being abducted by aliens.
Swift paired the look with a number of silver rings, stacked dainty bracelets and hoop earrings.

For glam, the singer donned a full beat including black smokey eyeshadow that was winged out, dark eyeliner in her waterline, long lashes, rosy cheeks and peachy lips. Her blonde hair was parted down the middle with her bangs swept to the side.
Fans were quick to share their reactions to Swift’s second look via X. “THAT DRESS IS REPUTATION CODED I’M NOT CLOWNING ITS COMING,” one wrote, hoping the singer will be re-releasing her original 2017 album soon. Another commented, “TAYLOR SWIFT HAS A DOWN BAD GREEN DRESS REFERENCE .”
Earlier during the soirée, Swift stunned in a yellow-and-black plaid look featuring a corset top equipped with a silver zip-up front, thin black straps, a buckle belt and mini shorts. Attached to the shorts was an open plaid bubble skirt.
