On August 19th, Suki Waterhouse, the talented singer and actress, took to Instagram to share her unforgettable experience of opening for none other than Taylor Swift during the London leg of the Eras Tour. And let me tell you, she did it in absolute style!
Suki stunned the crowd in a custom Chloé gown that she described as “the dress of her dreams.” This ethereal, peach-colored masterpiece, designed by Chloé’s creative director Chemena Kamali, featured delicate ruffles and flowing chiffon, giving us all the romantic vibes. Styled to perfection by Rob Zangardi and Cassy Meier, with hair and makeup by Linnea Nordberg and Riley Kate, Suki truly looked like a vision.
But it wasn’t just about the dress! Suki’s performance was nothing short of spectacular, and she had the ultimate support system backstage—Taylor Swift herself! In a heartwarming moment captured by Suki’s sister Maddi, the two friends shared a hug, with Taylor praising Suki’s performance to the crowd. Taylor even said, “I’ve been such a fan of her music for so long. She absolutely crushed it here tonight!” Talk about a dream come true!
Suki’s heartfelt Instagram caption tells the story of how surreal this experience was for her. She reminisced about the last time she was at Wembley—dancing at Taylor’s Reputation tour—and never imagined that she’d be opening for her favorite artist in the very same venue, with her friends and family cheering her on.
She also joked that her “nervous system will never be the same” after this once-in-a-lifetime performance. And we can totally understand why!
From the stunning Chloé gown to the incredible friendship and support between these two artists, this was truly a magical moment in the Eras Tour. Suki’s journey as an artist continues to inspire, and we can’t wait to see what she does next!
