Taylor Swift Violet Glitter Vinyl is the centerpiece of a new limited-edition 7″ vinyl single titled Elizabeth Taylor, arriving exclusively for Record Store Day 2026. Fans and collectors are bracing for this high-profile physical release, which hits independent record stores this Saturday, April 18, 2026.
This stunning and highly sought-after shimmering, purple-flecked disc is being marketed as a piece of visual art, continuing Swift’s well-documented commitment to the physical music experience.
The single arrives as a double-sided release, featuring two distinct interpretations of the same title track from her 2025 album, The Life of a Showgirl:
Side A: Elizabeth Taylor (Original)
Side B: Elizabeth Taylor (So Glamorous Cabaret Version)
The B-side “So Glamorous Cabaret Version” is expected to be a major draw for fans—the theatrical reimagining leans into the golden-age Hollywood glamour evoked by the song’s namesake.
The standout feature of this RSD 2026 release is the Taylor Swift Violet Glitter Vinyl. Because of the custom manufacturing process used to create the purple-flecked effect, no two copies of the glitter pressing are identical. Variations in coloration across units are inherent to the production method, a quirk that has only amplified collector interest.
“The violet glitter pressing isn’t just a color choice — it’s a whole mood. Each one comes out slightly different from the last.” — Collector Community Commentary
