Taylor Swift's new appearance during her Eras Tour in Amsterdam sparked discussion among Swifties over the significance of her outfit.

It appeared she was introducing a new look reminiscent of her 1989 era. Fans were captivated as she performed her hit song 'Style' in a sparkling blue crop top paired with a red-orange skirt.

Swifties correctly identified this ensemble as a new addition to her wardrobe for this segment of her highly successful tour, as per TMZ.

Dutch fans enthusiastically praised her choice of attire, speculating that the blue and red-orange outfit was a nod to the Netherlands.

They noted that the Dutch flag originally featured blue, white, and orange, with red eventually replacing orange on the flag.

Taking place on the Fourth of July, one of Swift's favorite holidays, the concert also led American Swifties to believe the outfit was a tribute to America's birthday.

The pop star took to the stage at the Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam with a creative twist. She performed a mashup featuring 'Guilty As Sin' from 'The Tortured Poets Department' on guitar, blended with 'Untouchable' from 'Fearless'.

Switching to piano, Swift presented a mashup combining 'The Archer' from 'Lover' with 'Question...?' from 'Midnights'.
