Swift’s fans quickly took to TikTok and Instagram, uploading clips of the pop star in action on stage during her Eras Tour. The footage shows Swift singing one of her songs while holding her microphone with one hand and reaching behind her back with the other.

Someone who claimed to be present when the incident occurred wrote, “this was crazy seeint this live (sic).” Believing it was a dress malfunction, one viewer commented, “It really was unbuttoned,” while another person who saw no issue remarked, “It looked fine to me🫣.”

Referencing the words Swift sang after the malfunction was resolved, a TikTok user commented, “‘Running with my dress unbuttoned’ omgg.” Another fan confessed, “I thought that her dress wasn’t done up all the way and she could feel the zipper going down or something at first lmao.”

Replying to that comment, a fan revealed, “From the second she came up, she was messing with it. I told my friend something is wrong.” Joking about the situation, another person wrote, “Was almost ‘running with my dress unzipped.’ 🤣”

One person found it ironic that the malfunction occurred during her performance of “But Daddy I Love Him,” stating, “Of course it happens during this song lol.”

The gown is white with a structured bodice and flowing skirt. Lyrics from the lead single, “Fortnight,” are written in black script across the skirt, including the words, “I love you, it’s ruining my life.” A press release noted that the dress was created from recycled taffeta.

The dancers who assisted her matched her outfit, wearing white pants and tank tops. Later in the performance, Swift removed the dress on stage, transitioning to a look that highlighted her bodysuit as she sang “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”

The singer began the final leg of her tour on October 18, 2024, in Miami Gardens at Hard Rock Stadium. During her “Reputation” set, she debuted another new outfit, this time a bodysuit designed by Roberto Cavalli.

The bodysuit features intertwined snakes and a one-legged and one-hand design, with gold detailing replacing the red accents from a previous version. Despite the captivating outfit and performance, fans noticed something else.

One fan wrote, “I think it just means she’s needing [sic] more suits made, because she’s gained little happy weight since dating Trav!” Another person speculated, “Baby in oven [sic].” Many echoed similar sentiments, with one netizen writing, “It’s giving a baby on the way lol [sic].”

Another fan criticized the speculation, writing, “This comment section is so nasty. Y’all really have that much hate in your heart for her? Like really? Take energy and focus it on yourself maybe [sic].” Some were frustrated with the rumors.

But, this isn’t the first time Swift has sparked pregnancy rumors in recent months. On September 8, 2024, she and Kelce were spotted at the US Open, where fans commented on her appearance in a dress she wore to the event.

Swift attended the Men’s Singles Final match between USA’s Taylor Fritz and Italy’s Jannik Sinner, wearing a red and white checkered dress called the “Sora Linen Dress.” The dress, from Reformation, had fans talking about her physique.
