Taylor Swift Revives Showgirl

The showgirl aesthetic is resurging in popular culture, driven by Taylor Swift's album The Life of a Showgirl and renewed Las Vegas glamour.
Since the Jubilee! revue closed in 2016, showgirls have remained emblematic of Las Vegas glamour even as traditional performances decline.
Bob Mackie, Miley Cyrus, and Dua Lipa keep the trend influential, while Nancy Hardy questions the term's breadth and Kylie Jenner showcases it at a holiday party.
