She's no stranger to hitting the headlines, but Taylor Swift just obliterated them altogether. The singer made a surprise appearance at The 1975 show in London last night, where she performed Anti-Hero live for the first time leaving a throng of overwhelmed fans in her wake.
Not only that, but Taylor quite literally lit up the stage at the O2 Arena with her outfit of choice. The popstar shimmied her way into the limelight in a disco-ready mini dress that boasted a scoop neck, a metallic silver sheen and rows of glimmering mirrored paillettes. This creation could be the work of (or at least inspired by) no other than Paco Rabanne, whose chainmail designs attributed to the label's iconic reputation.

Taylor knows how to make a red carpet appearance count. Back in November, the star attended the AMAs and made quite the impression with her sartorial decisions.

Not only did T-Swift steal the show by going home with the most awards, she also made a statement in a backless gold jumpsuit from The Blonds – perfect for this party season. She teamed it with Giuseppe Zanotti heels, dangly earrings and her signature red lip, with loosely curled hair that gave ultimate 1970s vibes.
