The dress featured a zip-up corset top, black hot pants, and a dramatic long train, accessorized with lace-up gloves and thigh-high boots.

This look sparked speculation about a potential announcement for Reputation (Taylor's Version), although no such news was revealed during the event.

After the awards ceremony, Swift changed into a custom Monse minidress adorned with a UFO motif, which fans believe ties into her song "Down Bad" from her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department.

The lyrics of the song reference themes of cosmic love and alien abduction, further amplifying the speculation about upcoming music videos or singles related to this track

Swift's choice of Monse also carries political significance, as former First Lady Michelle Obama wore the brand during her speech at the Democratic National Convention.
