All the talk about Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood video concerned the celebrity cameos, rather than the clothes. But the LA sex shop that supplied the fetish outfits used in the clip could stand to gain, after telling the New York Post it intends to make a “full run” of the outfits worn by Swift and Selena Gomez.
Swift’s team borrowed $13,000 (Dh47,749) worth of clothes from The Stockroom a month ago, including a flesh coloured latex dress that retails at $235 and was worn by Swift, and a $360 latex blouse sported by Gomez. Swift’s basque was made by a company called Syren, which has also produced costumes for films including Batman, Catwoman and Mr and Mrs Smith.
The Stockroom’s director of operations, Shawn Gentry, told the Post the clothes were picked up by someone acting for a secret client around a month ago. They did not take any of the shop’s extensive range of sex toys. Swift’s team ended up keeping $5,000 worth of gear.
The Post reported that The Stockroom has seen an increase in online traffic and calls since the Bad Blood video was launched earlier this week. At the time of writing it has clocked up 43.3 million YouTube views.
