No one does evening glamor quite like Blake Lively. From its beginning Gossip girl Day, the actor – who turned 35 this week – has consistently delivered memorable gowns on repeat and the Met Gala steps. Even more impressively, she doesn’t employ a stylist; those services are all that.
Lively’s red carpet fashion choices can be summed up in a few key words: bombshell and chic. The star has often gravitated towards silhouettes that are fluid and romantic. In the premiere of Project Adam in March, she donned a pastel rainbow dress by Versace (she brought the ethereal dress down with a denim jacket, which she wore before hitting the carpet). She’s also had a thing for Chanel over the years, serving as a muse for Karl Lagerfeld while the late designer headed the house. Her sequined, empire-waist Chanel gown worn at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival remains one of her best.
The superstar is also an unforgettable presence at the Met Gala. At this year’s event, she wore a dramatic Versace gown that unzipped to reveal a copper skirt inspired by the Statue of Liberty. Her embellished 2018 Heavenly Bodies-themed ensemble, also by Versace and complete with a long velvet train, gold embroidery and a studded crown, was equally impressive. Few can command a step and repeat at the Met quite like Lively. Whether she’s attending a red carpet premiere or showing up at fashion week, Lively is always sure to make a statement. And that’s why she’s cemented as one of Hollywood’s best dressed.
Below, Lively’s 37 best red carpet fashion moments.
