Lotte Lutjes, 18, is a huge Swift fan from the Netherlands.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and one Taylor Swift fan is taking this to heart, turning to the singer for fashion inspiration.

Lotte Lutjes, an 18-year-old Swiftie from the Netherlands, flawlessly recreates Swift-inspired outfits in honor of her idol.

She began recreating the outfits when she attended the Red tour in London in February 2014. With the help of her grandma, Lutjes sewed her own ringleader costume because she couldn't find one in stores.

When she attended the concert, Andrea, Taylor Swift's mom, was so impressed that Lutjes was given front row seats to the show.

Since then, she's recreated numerous costumes - from music videos to award shows to performance outfits.

She made the cheerleader costume from the "Shake it Off" music video:

The two also tend to look alike. Lutjes posted a photo wearing sunglasses and even Swift was thrown off by the resemblance, expressing her surprise on Tumblr, where she reposted the photo.

Lutjes, who suffers from Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, which affects the nerves in her arms and legs, told Seventeen that turning to fashion changed her life.

"I've felt really left out and useless at times, but this honestly felt like a whole new world!" she said. "The costumes definitely make me feel more confident. Not because I look like Taylor in them - that's not my main goal. I just love making them and they make me feel fierce."
