Hier koop je die verlovingsjurk van Taylor Swift
And he is incredibly affordable
Yesterday, the internet, Instagram, TikTok, and the daily chit-chat by the coffee machine were dominated by one thing: Taylor Swift's engagement to Travis Kelce. Of course, it was about the value of the engagement ring (more than a million) and just as much about that amazing, elegant dress she wore in the photo announcing their engagement.

First, let's talk about the ring
Just strolling into Cartier or Tiffany's was a bit too easy for Travis. He designed Taylor Swift's engagement ring together with jeweler Kindred Lubeck of Artifex Fine Jewelry. The inspiration came from an Old Mine Brilliant cut diamond, which hovers somewhere between 7 and 10 carats and is set on a hand-engraved (I'm also very curious about what it says) yellow gold band with small diamond accents.
The value is estimated at around $1 million, but there are jewelry experts who claim the ring could even be worth up to $5 million.
Their love story in a nutshell
Taylor and Travis started dating in 2023. When Taylor attended a Chiefs game, everyone could do the math. Since then, they have been through a lot together – such as the public feud with Blake Lively where Travis clearly chose his beloved's side. Travis also often followed her during her tour. How nice was it that Travis cycled through Amsterdam when Taylor performed here?
A proposal is only official when you ask your beloved's hand from her father. And Travis did that very properly. A month before the proposal, he went to Scott Swift, Taylor's father, to ask for his approval. On August 10, 2025, Travis got down on one knee in a lush garden on his estate in Leawood, Missouri (yes, that house with the two-story cinema...), among pink and white flowers.
They couldn't keep the news quiet for long: a day later, they both shared the engagement photos. It immediately became one of the most liked posts ever, now boasting over 32 million likes.
And that dress... yes, what is it made of?
Taylor wore a striped silk dress from Polo Ralph Lauren for the engagement photos. The dress originally cost $398, was marked down to about $320, and sold out within 20 minutes on the Ralph Lauren site and at other retailers.
Good news: Grazia reported that the dress is still available in England for about £385 (approximately €450). So I would say: run, fly, click, buy. Because with this Taylor Swift engagement dress, you have the fashion item of the year hanging in your closet. I want it myself too, thank you in advance.
