Taylor Swift's Wedding Turns Into Met Gala 2.0 - But Without One Rule That Could've Helped BFF Abigail

Dubbed the American royal wedding, July 3, 2026, was marked by pop star Taylor Swift and NFL player Travis Kelce tying the knot in a private ceremony held at Madison Square Garden in New York City. When we say private, we certainly don't mean small, as it is estimated that 1,000 people showed up for the couple's big day. Among them were numerous A-listers, including Selena Gomez, Dakota Johnson, Jennifer Lopez, and many more. In fact, the guest list was so famous that we can't help but compare the wedding to the annual Met Gala, the fashion event of the year. One rule the Met Gala never skips is that everyone's outfits are pre-approved by Anna Wintour, ensuring no two stars end up wearing the same fit. At Swift and Kelce's crowded wedding, this was bound to happen.

Swift's childhood best friend, Abigail Anderson, the one whom the pop star famously mentions in her 2008 hit "Fifteen," was spotted heading to the wedding in the Frances gown by Sau Lee, retailing for $795. The garment featured a structured greige corset bodice with floral details and a silky brown skirt draped over the hips. Unfortunately for Anderson, the same dress was also worn by Laura Kruk, fiancée of New York Giants player JuJu Smith-Schuster. At first, many believed the two were perhaps dressed as bridesmaids, justifying the same outfits, but it was soon revealed that the famous bride didn't end up having bridesmaids at all. Instead, her brother Austin Swift was her "man of honor," which certainly means that Anderson and Kruk ended up creating a "who wore it better" moment by accident.

Corset tops and dresses are among the biggest trends for summer 2026

While it's certainly unfortunate that both Abigail Anderson and Laura Kruk wore the exact same outfit to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding, we have to applaud the ladies for their choices. The corset dress is among the biggest fashion trends for summer 2026, and it is a look we've seen celebs rock all through spring. In fact, Margot Robbie helped popularize the trend during her "Wuthering Heights" promotional run, and the silhouette of a snatched waist paired with a soft, looser bottom has become a fashion go-to.

"It's really the only garment we wear that actually shifts parts of the body," designer Jackson Wiederhoeft told Harper's Bazaar in 2026. "Most garments go on top of the body, whereas the corset is going, like, inside of your body, changing where your organs are placed and repositioning you." While you can style a corset top for any occasion, Anderson and Kruk have shown that it is a great wedding guest look, so popular that you have to fear someone else might be matching you at the event. Now, as we eagerly await to see just how the pop star looked on her big day, Taylor Swift's best white dress moments so far hint that the singer might just have opted for a corset wedding dress too.
