Taylor Swift’s 'Look What You Made Me Do' Gets a Handmaid’s Tale Twist

In Taylor Swift’s music video for "Look What You Made Me Do", the red and white ensemble Swift wears mirrors the handmaid's uniform from *The Handmaid’s Tale*, symbolizing resistance and rebellion.

The reference to *The Handmaid’s Tale* highlights themes of female rebellion, self-empowerment, and the fight against control, which are central to both Swift’s video and the series.

Elisabeth Moss, star of *The Handmaid’s Tale*, commented on how the video channels the same rebellious energy and struggle for freedom that defines the characters in the series.

Both Taylor Swift’s video and *The Handmaid’s Tale* explore themes of power, control, defiance, and transformation, with an emphasis on women reclaiming their voices and autonomy.

Swift’s reinvention in the video symbolizes breaking free from the past and embracing a new, empowered self, much like the characters in *The Handmaid’s Tale* who fight against oppressive systems.

The red and white costume worn by Swift in the video is a direct reference to the handmaid’s uniform in *The Handmaid’s Tale*, symbolizing women’s resistance to authority and reclaiming their power.

Both the video and the series depict women standing up against oppressive forces, reclaiming their voices, and challenging societal norms in their respective worlds.

The connection serves as a timely reminder of how pop culture can reflect and inspire conversations about women’s rights, identity, and resistance against societal control in both media and real life.
