Where is Taylor Swift’s famous All too well scarf now?

One of the doubts we’ve been carrying around for years – ever since Taylor Swift started selling millions of copies with his album Red – it’s: what is the true story of the famous scarf given to Jake Gyllenhaall? And above all, where is it now? The time has therefore come to clarify.

We are in 2010, the actor and the singer are dating. She is photographed, first with him, then with her sister, Maggie Gyllenhaal, wearing a blue striped Gucci scarf. According to what she tells herself in All too well, he forgets her at home Maggie and loses track of it for a while until it reappears on the actor, by chance. In fact, always in the same song, Taylor he says that Jake who still preserves it. We do not know if this is true, but we have only one certainty: he is no longer at his sister’s house. Indeed, Maggie, in an interview, says that everyone keeps asking her about the scarf but she has no idea where she is.

We could have closed this story like this, thinking that the actor still keeps it in a drawer of his closet, but two people have intervened in this dispute. The first is the Broadway actor Andrew Burnap, as well as a friend of Jake, who jokingly but not too much, explained that for a period of time the famous scarf was at his home. Finally, the American singer-songwriter intervened Dionne Warwick who invited the actor to return it because it is not his and it makes no sense that he still has it.

Now, if I were Jake Gyllenhaal, I would arrange for an expedited expedition, perhaps thinking locally about which of his friends might have it. I’d say it’s time to put this story right. The alternative is to buy a new one as a sign of relaxation after years that this story has tormented him and has become an obsession for us fans of Taylor Swift. It must be said that the singer, on her official website, in the merchandising area, gives the possibility to buy this scarf: as usual, the specialty of the interpreter of Shake it off it is making a fortune from the bad things that happen to her in life.

The above is valid if we accept that the scarf is a real object and not a metaphor for something else. We saw it again in the video for I bet you think about me and then some fans thought it was something else. It is a theory that, for the moment, does not find any official confirmation but why not take it into consideration? As we know, the first time of Taylor was with the actor, so for some the famous scarf of Taylor it would represent her virginity. To support this hypothesis there would be a verse of All too well che recita «but you keep my old scarf from that very first week ’cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me. You can’t get rid of it ‘cause you remember it all too well».

And you? What do you think?
