Call it the 'Swift'-sonian: Free Taylor Swift fashion exhibit on display in London

LONDON — Swifties can trace iconic fashion from throughout Taylor Swift’s career at the Victoria and Albert Museum in South Kensington. The free exhibit is one mile long and contains 13 displays: one for each of Swift’s 11 eras, one for her rerecords and one with home videos.

"This is a very unique creation," says Kate Bailey, the curator for the V&A Museum. "We’re going to follow through different chapters, different eras, different moments in Taylor’s career."

Bailey admits she’s never put together an exhibit like this in the 20-plus years she’s been with the museum. 

"She’s managed to move through such extraordinary periods of time and creativity," Bailey says.

The singer provided a 'Swift'-sonian’s worth of dresses extending from her country roots to her newest era, "The Tortured Poets Department." Follow the Songbook Trail in the video above and gallery below.
