“Style” is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift for her fifth studio album 1989 (2014). It was written by Swift and its producers Max Martin, Shellback, and Ali Payami. Republic Records in partnership with Swift’s label Big Machine released the song to US radio stations as the album’s third single on February 9, 2015. Musically, “Style” incorporates disco, funk-pop, pop rock and synth-pop. The lyrics are ambiguous; contemporary publications interpreted the song as being about beauty standards and reflections on past romantic relationships.
The song garnered generally positive reviews from critics, many of whom deemed it the album’s highlight. A few commentators found the lyrics clichéd and shallow. It earned an APRA Music Award nomination for International Work of the Year and appeared on year-end lists of Pitchfork and The Village Voice. In the US, “Style” peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming 1989’s third consecutive Hot 100 top-ten single. It received triple platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), which denotes track-equivalent sales of over three million units. “Style” also entered the top ten on charts and received multi-platinum certifications in Australia and Canada.
Filmmaker Kyle Newman directed the song’s music video featuring actor Dominic Sherwood as Swift’s love interest. Premiering on February 13, 2015, the video featured a darker and more abstract atmosphere compared to those for previous 1989 singles “Shake It Off” and “Blank Space”. Swift included “Style” on regular set lists for two of her world tours: The 1989 World Tour (2015) and the Reputation Stadium Tour (2018).
