She was yet to become the global star we all know (and some love), but the Taylor Swift in Abercrombie & Fitch's 2003 advertising campaign is instantly recognisable.
Foreshadowing the schtick that would accompany her routine for the best part of the decade, Swift is the image of the brokenhearted country star in the shot.
Wiping her eye with a handkerchief, young Taylor stares forlornly into the lens with her guitar slung across her like a weapon about to be utilised.
It seems she knew they were all trouble back then, too, and that there was mileage in the fallout.
But she perhaps couldn't have predicted that the turbulent love life which would fuel her modern take on the doomed dames of country crooning would also indirectly cause a row with the chain she once modelled for.
Exactly ten years later, Abercrombie & Fitch werre forced to remove a T-shirt commenting on Taylor's love life after angered fans of the singer launched a petition claiming it was 'childish' and 'hurtful'.
The T-shirt is branded with the words: '#more boyfriends than t.s.', in reference to the 23-year-old singer's changeable romantic status.
After numerous Taylor Swift fans, aka 'Swifties', shared their horror with videos, petitions and tweets, the retailer eventually pulled the shirt from production and issued an apology via Twitter.
'Hey #swifties we no longer sell the T-shirt,' wrote Abercrombie & Fitch.
