Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez’s BFF outfit formula needs to be studied

You’ve probably heard by now that Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez met up in New York City on Saturday night.

Both women left their partners at home — or, in Swift’s case, Travis Kelce was at a Big Slick charity event in Kansas City — to catch up at The Monkey Bar in NYC, where the gossip seemed to be particularly juicy based on a blurry photo that made it’s way onto DeuxMoi’s Instagram page. Not much else could be gleaned from the snap at the time, though more photos have since emerged of the pop stars leaving the bar later in the evening — and we need to talk about their BFF dress code.

In photos shared by People, Swift dropped her recent floral fixation for a matching black silk and wool Gucci set, featuring a tank top and skirt with silver sequins borders. The top itself retails for £2,584 while the skirt is being sold for £1,846, making this one of Swift’s less attainable outfits. She paired the all-black set with a pair of towering silver platform heels and a black Gucci bamboo handle bag (which seems to be available on TheRealReal for £1,364 at the moment, but retails for £3,471).

Everything else was classic Taylor. She finished off the look with her natural waves pulled back in an easy updo, her signature red lip, and winged eyeliner. She also seemed to switch out her lavender manicure for silver, based on more photos shared by DeuxMoi.

In contrast, Selena Gomez opted for warm earth tones, pairing a form-fitting brown halter top with a khaki-coloured trouser and blazer, finishing off her look with a pointed metallic brown pump and her hair slicked back in a bun. Of course, the Rare Beauty mogul’s makeup game was strong with a bold lip and sultry eye look. You can see the photos of the pair here and here.

I couldn’t help but think of the last couple of times we saw these two out on the town in New York City in 2023. On both occasions, the pair opted for sophisticated, but opposing neutrals, allowing them both to stand out while giving off a sense of cohesion.

They even followed this formula in more casual attire during a girl’s night at Sushi Park in Los Angeles earlier that year. For that occasion, both women wore jeans, though Taylor Swift opted for a white crochet top while Gomez paired her denim with a black knit. You know the TikTok trend about friends who don’t dress like they’re going to the same place? That’s not Selena and Taylor.

This latest outing comes on the heels of Swift’s announcement that she finally owns all her own music after her masters were purchased without her consent in 2019, sparking her famous endeavour to re-record her first six albums. On 30 May, Gomez congratulated Swift on Instagram, writing, “Yes you did that Tay. So proud!”

A day later, they were able to celebrate in person — and looked great doing it.
