Taylor Swift is positioning herself as the relatable billionaire — choosing a sub-$300 lace skirt to pair with her $4,000 leather coat sends the message that she's still one of us at heart.
This isn't Taylor's first rodeo with Fleur du Mal. Last year she wore the brand's corset dress in NYC and it vanished from inventory almost immediately after photos dropped — so fans know what's coming.
The Fleur du Mal Juliet Lace Silk Skirt is available for pre-order on the brand's website, but Nordstrom has select sizes ready to ship now. Taylor wore this exact skirt on Friday night in London with Travis Kelce during their UK trip.
If you want it, move fast — Swift has a near-perfect track record of emptying retail inventories overnight.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce continued their UK romance tour Friday night in London, and while the Kansas City Chiefs star's game-day fit is usually the headline grabber, this time it was Swift who commanded the fashion conversation. The pop superstar stepped out in a Fleur du Mal Juliet Lace Silk Skirt — a lacy black number that costs under $300 and is already teetering on the edge of sellout status.
The skirt, which Taylor paired with a silk Staud Evangeline Top for their evening out, is available for pre-order directly through Fleur du Mal but Nordstrom has grabbed select sizes ready to ship immediately — including a lavender option for anyone who wants Swift's look but prefers something outside her classic black palette. The brand also offers a matching Juliet Lace Silk Cami for those looking to complete the boudoir-adjacent aesthetic Taylor is clearly partial to these days.
Here's where it gets interesting, though: this isn't some impulsive one-off style choice. Taylor has worn Fleur du Mal before — most notably last year in NYC when she stepped out with Kelce wearing the label's Long Sleeve Flared Corset Dress. That piece sold out almost instantly once photos hit the internet.
The woman has a documented track record of emptying luxury-adjacent inventories without breaking a sweat, and fans are well aware that hesitation could cost them. The irony — and this is the part I find delicious — is that while Taylor's skirt costs under $300, she accessorized it with a Toteme Slim Leather Coat ($4,000), a Rabanne 1969 Shoulder Bag ($1,690), and Celine Ava Sandals ($1,050). So she's technically doing accessible fashion... if you ignore roughly eight grand in complementary outerwear and handbags.
But let's be real: that's the Swift playbook. Drop one affordable piece into a sea of five-figure accessories and suddenly everyone feels like they can dress like her. Fleur du Mal isn't exactly an obscure indie find, either.
The New York-based label counts Anne Hathaway, Beyoncé, and Kristen Stewart among its fans — all of whom have worn the brand's lingerie-as-outerwear aesthetic on various red carpets over the years. Taylor is in good company, but she's also the one who moves product fastest. If Friday night's London look follows last year's NYC pattern, that pre-order window is going to slam shut a lot sooner than anyone expects. Shop swiftly — and I mean that quite literally.
