Renowned style icon Dame Joan Collins, at the age of 91, has revealed her admiration for pop sensation Taylor Swift by officially declaring herself a fan, known as a Swiftie. In a recent photoshoot for Harper’s Bazaar Arabia, she showcased her timeless beauty and elegance by donning six exquisite gowns. Drawing inspiration from the iconic singer, some of her outfits bore a striking resemblance to Taylor Swift’s signature style. One particular gown, a stunning baby blue creation by Reem Kachmar, caught the eye, reminiscent of Swift’s custom Alberta Ferretti dress worn during her extensive global tour. The legendary actress praised Swift as an icon and paid homage to her in a dazzling display of fashion.
For over seventy years, Dame Joan Collins has been a fashion trendsetter. Now, she’s surprising everyone by revealing that she’s a fan of Gen Z’s pop star Taylor Swift. In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, she proudly declared herself as a Swiftie.
Describing the 34-year-old singer as ‘iconic’, Dame Joan was seen in a light blue sheer gown created by Reem Kachmar, a fashion house based in Beirut. Despite their significant age gap, they share a love for a dazzling purple outfit. Dame Joan chose a long dress by Syrian designer Rami Al-Ali for the photo shoot, while Swift usually goes for a shorter purple sequined dress for her performances.
In another picture, Dame Joan wore bright red lipstick while donning a stunning white dress by Lebanese American designer Rami Kadi, resembling a white Alberta Ferretti gown often seen on Swift during her shows. The Hollywood Dame drew inspiration from various sources, including a buttoned-up black and white jacket dress. This jacket bore a resemblance to the Vivienne Westwood tailcoat that Swift wore during the popular Tortured Poets Department portion of her Eras Tour. However, Swift preferred to wear the jacket unbuttoned, paired with designer underwear from the same British brand.
The actress fell in love with her new clothes so much that she decided to keep all the customized gowns from the photo shoot. Her publicist mentioned that she already had events in mind where she could wear them.
