Taylor Swift has been a fan of the classic red lip look for a while now, but this time, she took it to the next level. The artist debuted her new "Wildest Dreams" video during the MTV VMAs on Sunday night (Aug. 30), and in it, she’s taken on an old Hollywood style, completing the look with uncharacteristically dark tresses.

Swift portrays an actress filming scenes with a hunky costar (Scott Eastwood), but it becomes clear as the song progresses that there’s something more complicated going on between the two when the camera goes off. The storyline gets a bit racy for Swift, who has until now been fairly tame with her romantic vids, when the couple is shown cozying up after the crew goes home. Check out the full "Wildest Dreams" video above to see the story unfold.

Now a crossover star, Swift has become known for her intriguing, high-production videos, including her most recent, "Bad Blood," which featured a slew of famous names as butt-kicking crime fighters and villains. The artist has been on her 1989 World Tour, on which she has been surprising audiences constantly with special guests in nearly every city. She just finished her L.A. run, where she wowed audiences with duets with Justin Timberlake, Selena Gomez and none other than Friends’ Lisa Kudrow, with whom she treated the audience to a one-time-only performance of "Smelly Cat," a song made popular by Kudrow’s character, Phoebe.
