As the singer-turned-director up to now published on Instagram, "Lavender haze means the 'all-encompassing love glow.'" She explained she picked up the time period from the television show Mad Men: "It turns out that it’s a common phrase used in the ‘50s, where they would just describe being in love."
Tay's love passion is played by means of trans fashion and artist Laith Ashley, who Taylor said she “absolutely adored working with" on Twitter.
But as every Swiftie knows, Taylor's music videos are usually ridden with Easter eggs — and this one seems to be no exception. In fact, the first potential Easter egg appeared to fall on Jan. 26 when Taylor announced the music video was coming. Strangely enough, her ex-boyfriend, John Mayer, also announced his first acoustic tour that day. Coincidence? We think not.
