Just call it tortured couture.

Following a two-month break, Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour resumed in Paris, France, on Thursday — and along with adding several songs from her latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” to the already-sprawling setlist, the superstar treated lucky ticket holders to some fresh fashion, too.

Swift performed new tunes “But Daddy I Love Him,” “So High School,” “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” “Down Bad” and “Fortnight” wearing a cream-colored dress with a corseted bodice, dramatic hip detailing and her own lyrics scrawled down the skirt.

She topped it off with a matching white trench coat before launching into “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” — and then opted for an on-stage costume change, stripping down to a sparkling black bra top and briefs and adding a gold lamé jacket for the grand finale of the “TTPD” section, “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”

The new costumes are perfectly in line with the literature-inspired looks she’s been exploring while promoting “TTPD” — think corsets, pleated skirts and plenty of black and white.

“There’s definitely a ‘literary academia’ style that’s going on,” Taylor Swift Style blogger Sarah Chapelle told Page Six Style last month. “The [visuals] are telling a very cohesive story, which is clearly pointing to being inspired by female poets of the past.”

The “But Daddy I Love Him” hitmaker collaborated with a number of major fashion houses on her stage styles for the Eras Tour, all of which are inspired by her past album aesthetics.

Standouts include the bedazzled Atelier Versace bodysuits Swift wears during the “Lover” section of her performance, the sparkling Roberto Cavalli crop-top-and-miniskirt combos she sports for the “1989” segment and the flowing, fluttering Alberta Ferretti gowns that add ethereal drama to the “Folklore” portion of the show.

And given that the aforementioned brands provided several different color variations of each look for Swift to rotate between as her tour rolls on, additional “TTPD” costumes are practically guaranteed to pop up at the shows ahead.
