Taylor Swift is a self-proclaimed mastermind, which means her latest outfit can’t be a coincidence.
On November 3, the 33-year-old pop star stepped out in New York City in yet another preppy ensemble befitting her light-academia aesthetic. The blonde singer styled a pair of gray wide-leg pants with brown leather heeled loafers and socks, topping off the look with an orange and brown argyle Gucci sweater as the pièce de résistance.
Swift carried a structured brown leather purse and went with her signature beauty look, complete with winged black eyeliner and a bold red lip. So now that we’ve got the details out of the way, let’s talk about that sweater. Last month another Taylor Swift conspiracy went viral—this time unrelated to her love life or musical Easter eggs.
Ever since the release of the Argylle in October, many Swifties have become convinced that their favorite singer is the mysterious author behind the spy thriller that inspired the film. The book—which has yet to be released yet somehow scored a reported $200 million deal with Apple TV+ that boasts a cast of A-list actors—is allegedly written by debut novelist Elly Conway. However, Conway does not appear on her own Instagram page and is featured as a character in the film, played by Bryce Dallas Howard.
Why do people think Taylor Swift is Elly Conway? Well, it’s a combination of her affinity for argyle sweaters, her red hair in the “All Too Well” music video, and the fact that she has recorded music at LA’s Conway Recording Studios. Oh, and her cat looks a whole lot like the one from the movie trailer. There’s a bit more to it, which TikTok user Jessica Lynn Slocum has explained in multiple videos.
