American singer and billionaire Taylor Swift was recently spotted wearing a jungle-print dress by Vietnamese designer Diep Yen at a family wedding.
As reported by Elle, the superstar attended her cousin's wedding on October 7, where she wore a spaghetti-strap gown featuring patterns inspired by the late 19th-century Art Nouveau artist William Morris. Swift complemented the dress with her signature cat-eye makeup, red lipstick, and a sleek updo.
The dress is part of Yen's Montsand Spring-Summer 2020 collection, which boasts a princess-style silhouette with a strapless bodice and a gently flared skirt. Adorned with fox patterns, the design evokes the feeling of spring.
Yen described the dress, saying, "As the wearer moves, it looks as though the fox image on the dress is walking through a spring forest." She also mentioned that the dress had been commercially available for some time before Swift’s styling team selected it.
Swift, 35, gained fame in 2006 with her country music career. She has since released 11 albums, won 14 Grammy Awards, 29 Billboard Awards, and 30 VMAs. Time named her "Person of the Year" in 2023. Swift is currently in a relationship with 35-year-old football player Travis Kelce.
Thanks to her world tour, The Eras Tour, Swift has become the richest female musician with a net worth of $1.6 billion, surpassing Rihanna, according to Forbes.
Yen, whose full name is Nguyen Diep Yen, is a 32-year-old designer from Hanoi, Vietnam. A graduate of the London College of Fashion and the University of the West of England, she launched her fashion brand Montsand in 2017. Yen’s La Pureza collection made its debut at London Fashion Week in September, and her designs have been worn by celebrities such as Chinese actresses Jiang Yiyan and Wu Jiayi.
