Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez have been close friends since the start of their careers.
-
Meanwhile, the two shared stylish moments together on red carpets and on Swift’s tours.
-
They wore glamorous dresses, daring crop tops and countless sequins.
Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift shared their first red carpet appearance together in 2008.
Selena Gomez – who starred in ‘Another Cinderella Story’ – walked the red carpet in a gray satin mini dress with sheer sleeves and a bubble skirt. She also wore simple jewelry and a brown belt tied loosely around her waist.
Swift supported her friend on the red carpet, where she wore a sleeveless white mini dress with crystals on her bodice.
Then in 2011, they complemented each other at an Oscars after-party.
Gomez looked glamorous in a red Dolce & Gabbana dress with a deep V-neckline, satin belt and maxi skirt. She also wore gold hoop earrings that complemented Swift’s gold sequined mini dress designed by Zuhair Murad.
Although Swift’s strapless dress was drastically different from Gomez’s, the musician’s red lipstick brought their looks together.
It was in August of that year that Gomez and Swift sat together at the Teen Choice Awards. They both wore ponytails and feminine dresses.
Swift had a Marilyn Monroe moment that night, as she wore a white halter dress with a flowing skirt. It was designed by Rafael Cennamo.
Gomez also wore a halter set, although hers had a ruffled skirt and was more edgy. Made from a powder blue lace, the garment was sheer and revealed her midriff.
The celebrity duo lit up the American Music Awards a few months later with their metallic dresses.
Swift wore her signature sparkles in the form of a strapless dress designed by Reem Acra. Her first layer was opaque fabric in beige color and her mesh overlay was decorated with multicolored sequins.
Gomez contrasted her that night in a silver Armani dress. It had a plunging neckline, a thigh-high slit in its skirt, and a fringed belt that wrapped around its waist.
Gomez has also made fashionable stage appearances on Swift’s tours over the years.
During the New York leg of Swift’s Speak Now tour in 2011, Gomez joined her on stage wearing a black bandage dress with tights and thigh-high boots.
But it was her accessories – two Speak Now rubber bracelets – that caused a stir and matched Swift’s purple tulle dress.
For the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards, Swift and Gomez apparently coordinated their outfits.
Both musicians wore navy blue dresses for the event, and each dress had a bold twist.
Swift’s sleeveless bandage dress was designed by Hervé Léger. It had a plunging neckline, sparkles on its bodice, and a straight skirt that reached the floor.
But Gomez’s Versace look was arguably bolder. Her long-sleeved dress was split at the top, revealing a sheer corset underneath. There was also a large slit in her skirt lined with blue crystals.
The longtime friends made another stylish appearance together at the 2014 American Music Awards.
Gomez donned three outfits throughout the awards show, but she was wearing a black dress with a plunging neckline when she was photographed with Swift.
This latest star opted for a green dress with a mesh panel on the shoulders and a cutout at the waist. Michael Kors designed the look.
In 2015, Gomez made a surprise appearance on Swift’s 1989 tour.
On stage, the two friends showed off their longtime connection through their fashion.
To mirror Swift’s crystal-embellished crop top and shorts ensemble — which she wore throughout the tour — Gomez donned a studded black bodysuit with thigh-high boots to match those of her friend.
Swift and Gomez both showed off the edgy sides of their styles at the American Music Awards that year.
Swift’s two-piece outfit, created by Ashish, included a long-sleeved crop top and joggers, both covered in rainbow sequins creating an allover houndstooth print.
Gomez’s look was more subdued in color, but also bolder. She wore a sleeveless black dress with a plunging neckline, cutouts at the waist, zipped slits on her skirt and mesh inserts.
One of their most memorable fashion moments to date was at the 2016 Grammys.
Gomez stood out that night in a sparkling Calvin Klein dress with a v-neckline. It also had sharp cutouts at the waist and a skirt with a cropped train.
Swift took a more dynamic approach. Her Versace ensemble included a strapless bralette in a neon orange hue and a fuchsia satin skirt.
The last time Swift and Gomez were photographed together in public was during Swift’s Reputation Tour in 2018.
Of course, their interaction was both elegant and brilliant.
Swift wore a black snakeskin leotard with a sparkly jacket over it, and Gomez opted for a strapless jumpsuit covered in black sequins.
