<p>Orange seems to be the theme for Swift's new record</p>
<p>Orange seems to be the theme color for The Life of a Showgirl as several books with orange covers can be seen behind Swift on the clip from the New Heights set. Among them are books featuring the works of artists Jean-Michel Basquiat, Marc Chagall and Ruth Asawa, all of whom are tied to the modernism and neo-expressionism movements.</p>
