All that glitters really is Taylor Swift.

The superstar stepped out to celebrate her close friend Este Haim’s New Year’s Eve wedding to tech entrepreneur Jonathan Levin in Ojai, California — and she delivered a look worthy of a bride-to-be herself.

Swift, 36, stunned in a metallic gold sequin gown that featured a scoop neckline and soft, pleated skirt, channeling full mirrorball glamour. She completed the look with a tan shawl, coordinating handbag, a romantic updo and statement earrings for extra sparkle.

The style moment comes just months after Swift got engaged to NFL star Travis Kelce in August, making her glamorous wedding-guest look feel especially fitting.

Swift wasn’t the only icon in attendance. Photos from the celebration show her linking arms with Stevie Nicks, who wore her signature all-black ensemble.

Este — the eldest of the Haim sisters at 39 — documented her dress journey with Vogue, revealing she worked with Louis Vuitton in Paris to design multiple looks for the ceremony, reception and after-party, as well as bridesmaid dresses for sisters Danielle, 36, and Alana, 34.

“I’ve been dreaming of this day since I was five,” Este told Vogue, describing her fantasy of descending a spiral staircase in a ballroom gown to meet her husband at the bottom.

Swift and Haim share both a professional and personal history. They have collaborated on “No Body, No Crime” and “Gasoline,” toured together during the Eras Tour, and maintained a nearly decade-long friendship. The group was recently spotted dining together in New York City.

Haim has spoken warmly about Swift, calling her “a true genius” and “the best friend and the best hang” in a 2024 video shared online.

The wedding capped off a massive year for Swift. In 2025, she released the chart-topping album The Life of a Showgirl, announced her engagement and debuted her six-part Disney+ docuseries The End of an Era, chronicling her record-breaking Eras Tour.

Even during the holidays, Swift continued to make fashion headlines. She appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in a burgundy velvet mini dress by David Koma and was spotted in New York wearing a series of designer winter looks. She also attended a Kansas City Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium in a slate gray Miu Miu jacket, rocking her signature red lip and winged liner.

From wedding guest to bride-to-be, Taylor Swift is clearly entering her next era — and doing it in glittering gold.
