Blake Lively dons Statue of Liberty-inspired reversible gown, Ryan looks dapper in black

Hollywood's biggest fashion night is finally here and it turned out to be a gala event with a plethora of stars gracing it in their best outfits. The 2022 Met Gala marks the return of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. One of fashion's most stylish couples stepped onto the red carpet and will be playing the role of co-chairs while embodying the "Gilded Glamour" theme in chic ensembles.

Blake Lively who is marking her 10th Met Gala appearance, left hearts to flutter on the Metropolitan Museum of Art red carpet in her show-stopping Atelier Versace gown, which featured a reversible train. Ryan Reynolds, on the other hand, looked dapper as he wore white-tie best in a velvet tuxedo and white bow tie.

Lively left everyone stunned at the red carpet with her quick fashion performance halfway up the Met steps when she flipped the train, revealing an aqua side that cascaded down behind her. The 34-year-old actor who is known for her gorgeous red carpet outfits completed her entire look with matching gloves, statement earrings, and a tiara that just added the right charm to her entire outfit. 

Apart from channeling the dramatic trail that drew the attention of the viewers, another highlight of Blake Lively's outfit was that she took inspiration from the Statue of Liberty for her glamorous Met Gala look. Blake climbed up the stairs of the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday in a custom Versace look that changed from bronze to green to mirror the oxidation of the famous New York City landmark. The dress was encrusted with crystal and metallic leather and tri-tone copper foil.

The fashion spectacle is best known for how celebrities interpret the night’s theme with their extravagant sartorial choices. This year, the Met Gala theme is In America: An Anthology of Fashion and the stars are leaving no stone unturned to dress as per the theme.

Meanwhile, Blake Lively, for her last 2018 Met Gala appearance, embodied the "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination" theme in a custom-made halo by Schwartz and a custom Versace gown featuring a dramatic train designed for the Met steps.
