Taylor Swift had a massive night at the Grammy Awards.
She took home two awards for "Midnights," Best Pop Vocal Album and Album of the Year. Swift also became the first person to win Album of the Year four times. If that wasn't enough, Swift also announced her new album "The Tortured Poets Department," set to be released April 19, while accepting her award for Best Pop Vocal Album (her 13th Grammy win... iykyk).
Of course a night as big as this called for an iconic look. Swift rocked a custom white Schiaparelli couture gown with black gloves and layers of necklaces, including a black choker with a working clock. Once the gloves came off, the nails were in full view! Swift wore a chic white manicure to compliment her dress and tease the color of her new album.
