Here comes the bridal gown
It's top of mind for many a wedding guest: What will the bride's gown look like?
When it comes to Swift, some fans believe there are clues based on her vintage-inspired, 18th century, old-mine, brilliant-cut diamond engagement ring estimated to be a massive 8 to 10 carats and costing more than $550,000. Independent jeweler David Charles Frank, of Sea Cliff, told Newsday when the couple got engaged last August that the choice showed "Taylor Swift has very special niche taste and an appreciation for old things."
Does that translate to a wedding dress? Maybe.
That said, Long Island bridal boutiques and designers have other ideas. Have a look.
Owner-designer Kimberly Towers, of Runway Couture in Bellmore, says, "I always like to do something personal for my brides." If Taylor Swift were one, Towers would create a voluminous overskirt emblazoned with a romantic lyric from one of the pop star's songs to sit atop a slim gown that featured 87 flowers (Kelce's Kansas City number) and 13 roses to celebrate Swift's lucky number.
