The Kansas City Chiefs took on the Baltimore Ravens at Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday night for the NFL regular season opener, and Taylor Swift was in attendance, marking a successful outing for both her and the team. Swift was present in a VIP suite to cheer on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as the Chiefs secured a 27-20 victory over the Ravens.
For her first appearance of the season, Swift donned a striking denim-on-denim outfit, which showcased her confidence and style. She walked through the stadium tunnels wearing a denim Versace bustier, high-waisted denim shorts from Grlfrnd, and maroon patent leather thigh-high stiletto boots by Giuseppe Zanotti. Her ensemble was completed with a black Louis Vuitton purse, brick-red lipstick, and bold gold jewelry, all styled by her regular stylist, Joseph Cassell.
Swift’s influence on the NFL has been notable; following her last appearance at a Chiefs game, jersey sales for Kelce reportedly jumped by approximately 400 percent. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has acknowledged Swift’s role in attracting a younger female audience to the sport. Swift’s presence at games often elicits reactions from fans when she appears on screen, and her fashion choices and confident demeanor on Thursday suggested she was ready to make a statement without uttering a word.
