As her Eras tour roars on, fans of Taylor, 34, will get the chance to be up, close and personal with outfits and memorabilia from her previous tours and music videos.

Original items from Taylor’s different musical eras have been integrated into galleries at the Victoria and Albert Museum in Kensington.

Costumes, guitars and more from Taylor’s archive have been curated into the ‘Songbook Trail’ exhibition which will open on July 27.

Of the Trail, Kate Bailey, the senior curator of theatre and performance at the V&A, said: ‘There’s so many really iconic objects and looks worn by Taylor across her career from her breakout moment in country.

‘It’s wonderful to be able to share her musicality and her microphone. So, many, many things.’

‘The V&A feels like the perfect stage for a Taylor Swift trail. I think there´s so many touchpoints within Taylor´s work that respond to art, literature, history.

‘There’s so many ways that we can kind of interpret and layer and present Taylor´s work here.’

Some of the items that will be on show date back to 2007 when Taylor was just a mere supporting act.

These particular items are pale blue heart-adorned cowboy boots, turquoise dress and a Taylor acoustic guitar made of koa wood.

All of Taylor’s pieces will be scattered in amongst the V&A’s priceless works of art, fashion, photography, furniture, performance, architecture, and ceramics.
