DIY Taylor Swift Showgirl Costume #1

Let’s Break the Sweat and Vanilla Perfume Outfit down:

  • skin
  • bling
  • water.
I'll discuss the skin and body jewel situation here because I feel like there are multiple ways to get this look, which depend on how much skin you want to show.

Let’s Recreate this Outfit:

You can buy body jewelry like this and wear it over a leotard that matches your skin tone. Or, there is a similar leotard with clear straps. But will the leotard REALLY match your skin tone and will the body jewels fit? Taylor’s are obviously custom made.

I also found a jeweled bodysuit with jewels which is so pretty. But expensive, and it only comes in beige and black. And only in S-M-L.

This long sleeved bodysuit isn’t as blingy, but if offers the overall look, is only $20 with coupon and comes in S-XXL.

This two-piece silver outfit is also around $20 and super cute!

If you aren't comfortable with any of these options, continue to the other three costumes, which are a little less ... naked?

But let’s also talk about the rest of the bling: you can get a gorgeous cuff bracelet that looks a lot like Taylor’s. Here’s another version that’s under $10 and has good reviews.

I also love the pave bracelet Taylor wears and this is a great dupe!

Finally, here are some affordable and highly rated silver shoes that would be perfect!


DIY Taylor Swift Showgirl Costume #2

Let’s Break This Outfit Down:

  • Such a Las Vegas feel
  • Feathers
  • A jeweled headpiece
  • More body jewels but I have a solution if you’re not into that!

Let’s Recreate this Outfit

Taylor’s flapper-style headpiece is gorgeous! Here’s an under $10 option. If you want to spend a little more, this stunning option is around $20.

Want the orange feathers? Of course you do. Here is a fun feathered headpiece option. And here’s another feathered option that is only $6.

But you have to wear something below your head! Because of the difficulty of the body jewels situation, I’d choose this gorgeous orange sparkly leotard. It’s under $30 and comes in S-XXL.

Check out the costume above for dupes for Taylor’s bracelets and some silver shoes!

And don’t forget the fishnet stockings!

DIY Taylor Swift Showgirl Costume #3

Let’s Break This Outfit Down

  • Such a dark, edgy look!
  • Dark red and black
  • Sparkles everywhere!

Let’s Recreate This Outfit!

You can choose the jeweled black bodysuit above. But if you need more inclusive sizing, you could try this long-sleeved option and you don’t need gloves!

If you do want long, sparkly gloves, I LOVE this pair!

These earrings are very similar to the stunning ruby drop earrings that Taylor is wearing.

These sparkly boots are so fabulous! Here’s a more subtle pair.

Let’s Break This Outfit Down:

This outfit has most of the elements of Costume #1 above, with the addition of the headdress.

Let’s Recreate This Outfit

My body jewels vs leotard discussion is above. If you want something affordable and blingy, check this silver set out!

Taylor’s flapper headdress is gorgeous! Here’s an under $10 option. If you want to spend a little more, this stunning option is around $20.

Pile on the bling with this gorgeous cuff bracelet. Or this version that’s under $10 and has good reviews. I also love the rounded pave bracelet she wears and this is a great dupe!

Finally, here are some affordable and highly rated silver shoes that will let you party all night!
