Taylor Swift turned heads in a very racy gown as she attended the glitzy 2026 Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in New York City on Thursday.
The 36-year-old Grammy winner, who is preparing to tie the knot with NFL player Travis Kelce, joined other celebrities on the red carpet at the event such as Alanis Morissette and Sombr.
It comes just one day after the Bad Blood hitmaker enjoyed a rowdy night out at the Knicks game alongside close pals Alana and Este Haim during game four of the NBA Finals.
Swift wore a strapless black dress with a corset bodice as well as colorful floral details on the material.
A daring, thigh-high slit was seen on the right side of the ensemble and she also slipped into a pair of open-toed, black heels.
Her blonde locks were swept up into a chic updo, easily revealing a pair of flashy gold earrings.

Swift joined other music artists who were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame this year including Kenny Loggins, Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley of KISS, Walter Afanasieff, Alanis Morissette, Terry Britten and Graham Lyle as well as Christopher ‘Tricky’ Stewart.
The songstress is known for penning the lyrics to her hit tracks and got candid about the process during an interview with New York Times Magazine last month.
She also discussed how her songwriting has changed and evolved over the years.
‘It used to be like, “I can’t tell a person how I feel so I’ll write it in this song.” And that was really important for me at the time that it was important for me.’

The star added, ‘It’s also important when you’re in your early 20s, and there’s someone you shouldn’t talk to and you don’t want to call them because they’re bad for you and it’s toxic.
‘So you just – you write it in the song, and that’s where it lives,’ Swift said, and compared it to ‘a method of self-control or self-preservation or something.’
The singer then stated that some albums like Folklore were more about challenging herself as ‘a writer’ rather than referring to ‘having a public life and the intrusions that come with that.’
One day earlier, Swift made an appearance to cheer on the Knicks during game four of the NBA Finals.
She was joined by friends Alana and Este Haim as they scored courtside seats inside Madison Square Garden.
Swift showed her support for the team by wearing a blue shirt that had ‘Stevie Knicks’ in orange lettering on the front.
She also slipped into black jeans with cutouts and carried a black purse over her shoulder.
After the match, Swift and her pals further celebrated the Knicks’ big win at Zero Bond alongside other celebrities such as Sombr.
