37 of Blake Lively’s Best Red Carpet Fashion Moments
Nobody does evening glamour quite like Blake Lively. Since her early Gossip Girl days, the actor—who turns 35 today—has consistently delivered memorable gowns on the step and repeat and the Met Gala steps. Even more impressive, she doesn’t employ a stylist; those serves are all her. In honor of her special day, Vogue is taking a look back on some of Lively’s most memorable fashion moments. There are 37 of them, specifically, that are etched into our memories.
Lively’s red carpet fashion choices can be summed up in a few key words: bombshell and elegant. The star has often gravitated towards silhouettes that are flowy and romantic. At the premiere of The Adam Project in March, she wore a pastel-hued rainbow gown by Versace (she brought the ethereal gown down to earth with a denim jacket which she wore before stepping onto the carpet). She’s also had a thing for Chanel over the years, serving as a muse to Karl Lagerfeld while the late designer was at the helm of the house. Her sequined, empire-waist Chanel frock, worn to the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, continues to be one of her very best.
The superstar is also an unforgettable presence at the Met Gala. At this year’s event, her Versace gown patina’d on the carpet and her long train unraveled to showcase a copper-like finish, inspired by the Statue of Liberty. Her ornate ensemble for 2018’s “Heavenly Bodies” theme, also by Versace and complete with a long velvet train, golden embroidery, and a spiked crown, was just as head-turning. Few can command a step and repeat at the Met quite like Lively. Whether she’s attending a red carpet premiere or making an appearance at fashion week, Lively is always sure to deliver a statement look. And that’s why she’s been cemented as one of Hollywood’s best dressed.
