No, she did not pull an Angelina, nor did she do a Jennifer. Still, we can undoubtedly say that Taylor Swift is officially veering away from her usual prim and proper persona.

Making her arrival at the 2013 Brit Awards yesterday, the country cutie went extra daring by choosing to wear a black dress with front mesh panels that exposed her long legs.

The dress also featured a sheer back detail that was quite sexy. Gold accessories and a pair of gold-detailed Giuseppe Zanotti heels finished her very grown-up look.

How do you like the “new” Taylor? We certainly did not expect her to wear such an outfit. Did you? Do you think she looks better as a golden girl or a “black swan”?
Seriously though, we think she looked stunning. True, there was none of the beaded lace and champagne-colored gowns she would usually go for, but the sleek style of the dress and her oh-so memorable leggy stunt was refreshing for a change. Besides, even in such a dress, she still looked wholesome, would you agree?

Taylor’s dress is from the Elie Saab Pre-Fall 2013 collection. Yep, Elie Saab, minus the lace, beads, and sequins. It’s a straightforward and very modern design.
