While wedding dress codes may seem universal and well understood, Taylor Swiftfound herself under fire from some media outlets for wearing a color deemed inappropriate for the occasion.

As a video of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce arriving at the reception went viral, her fans were quick to shut down the criticism, pointing out there was nothing wrong with the dress she chose.

Fans rally against media criticism

But when it’s Taylor Swift, everyone joins the conversation. Soon, fans began clapping back at the media for unfairly singling her out. They noted that Taylor didn’t wear white-her dress was adorned with vibrant, colorful flowers. Those fiercely defending her argued that the criticism was completely unfounded, and the dress never should have sparked a negative debate. It seemed like another case of picking on Taylor just because she’s Taylor Swift.

Some fashion articles suggested that as a wedding guest, you should steer clear of white and even avoid light colors to keep the bride in the spotlight. But Swifties weren’t having it! They quickly dug up online receipts, pointing out that the bride, Karen Elson, had actually given her approval for cream-colored outfits.

What really got fans buzzing, though, was how one article went overboard with its theories, leaving Swifties even more hooked. The piece claimed that Taylor, in a sly move to steal the spotlight, might have followed the “something blue” tradition meant for brides-by carrying a blue purse. This wild speculation only fueled the fans’ outrage, calling it a stretch to criticize Taylor for embracing a tradition that had nothing to do with her.

And to cap it all off, Taylor Swift was hailed as daring for ditching traditional wedding fashion rules. Some even suggested it takes serious confidence to show up to a wedding as a guest with such a bold look, turning heads and breaking the mold.

Whether you’re a fan or a critic, Taylor Swift’s fashion choices are never dull-and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
