Taylor Swift Paris Concert : Crossing the United States and the Atlantic to see Taylor Swift concert ? No problem for tens of thousands of Americans, as the international star concludes this Sunday, May 12, a series of four concerts at La Défense Arena as part of his “Eras Tour”. Taylor Swift was at Paris La Défense Arena on May 9, 10, 11 & 12, 2024 for The Eras Tour.
Taylor Swift Paris Concert
According to the organizers, among the 42,000 spectators each evening, 30% were foreigners, including 20% Americans. Tickets were really difficult to get in the United States. It was less expensive to come see Taylor Swift and visit Paris than to buy a concert ticket in the States. The show lasted more than 3 hours. The American singer revisits almost her entire discography. Propelled from a rising star in American country to an international pop star, Taylor has 110 million monthly listeners on Spotify (compared to 70 for Beyoncé or Dua Lipa). Taylor Swift must then go to Sweden, Portugal, Spain, Lyon (June 2-3), United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Poland and Austria.
For three hours, the American star put on a show on the stage of the Défense Arena, parading in outfits, each more dazzling than the next. Some that the public was able to recognize and others, completely new. The singer kicked off her concert in an orange and pink sequinned corset by Versace, before putting on a matching blazer. She also wore Vivienne Westwood ‘I love you, it’s ruining my life” dress, completed with a pair of Christian Louboutin ankle boots. On tour since March 2023 with The Eras Tour, the 34-year-old singer takes to stages around the world. For each concert (146 in total), Taylor Swift has a series of looks, around ten outfits per performance.
Taylor Swift loves everything that sparkles
During Renaissance film by Beyoncé Première, the megastar invited Taylor Swift to the red carpet in London end of 2023. Taylor Swift wore a silver Balmain dress. Swift’s shimmery number was embellished all over with sequins and adorned with asymmetrical floral-esque ruffles at the neckline, finished off with a dramatic leg-baring slit on the side. Wearing metallics isn’t the only way Swift nodded to Beyoncé. When it comes to her ensemble, Beyoncé opted for Balmain, which is her favorite. She often wore Olivier Rousteing’s while on tour.
Olivier Rousteing creative director of Balmain
Olivier Rousteing born 13 September 1985 is a French fashion designer. He has been the creative director of Balmain since 2011. In 2019, he discovered that he is fully African, with a Somali birth mother and an Ethiopian birth father. Rousteing was adopted by his parents at the age of 1. Rousteing’s mother is an optician, while his father is a seaport manager. He grew up in Bordeaux and moved to Paris to study at ESMOD (Ecole Supérieure des Arts et Techniques de la Mode).
Rousteing’s career began at Roberto Cavalli as an intern, before being given the chance to direct the label’s ready-to-wear collection. Balmain noticed his success, appointing Rousteing as Creative Director in 2011. At only 25, this made him the youngest creative director in Paris since Yves Saint Laurent. With the help of celebrity friends like Kim Kardashian, Kelly Rowland, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, Björk, Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, Rousteing helped Balmain become the first French label surpass one million followers on Instagram.
Pierre Balmain
Balmain was founded in 1945 by Pierre Balmain. From the outset, Monsieur Balmain’s boldly feminine and opulent signature style offered a startling contrast to the utilitarian looks of the day. It created a distinctive, super-feminine DNA for the house. Balmain’s griffe relied on richly embroidered fabrics, nipped-in waists and longer, often fuller skirts. It quickly transformed the Parisian house into a favorite of both European and Hollywood royalty.
Balmain began his post-war career at the atelier of Lucien Lelong, where he worked alongside both Dior and Hubert de Givenchy. When he left to form his own house, success came rapidly, due in no small part to his mastery of couture techniques.
You may not see Taylor Swift concert in Paris but you could have a private luxury shopping tour with Balmain at the flagship store.
