Help! I'm a mum – what the heck do I wear to a Taylor Swift concert?

From comfy footwear to a denim cover-up, your outfit should feel dressed up but lend itself to dancing

You’ve managed to get your hands on the most sought-after tickets of the year, but the hard work isn’t over yet. Taylor Swift is bringing her Eras tour to the Aviva Stadium for three nights this week, starting on Friday, and if you’ve seen any clips from the show on social media, you’ll know that her fans take concert fashion very seriously.

While Swifties of all ages will be dressed to the nines in a kaleidoscope of looks from their favourite “eras” of the pop star’s career, if you’re on chaperone duty bringing young fans, you may find the matter of what to wear a challenge. How can you have a bit of fun with your outfit, without feeling like a stick in the mud — or making your kids roll their eyes?
