While Reynolds was initially stunned by the outfit change, he later looked proudly at her and even applauded the Gossip Girl star during the grand reveal. This led to a flood of comments lauding the couple's romance, with one Twitterati stating, "Find a man who looks at you like Ryan does to Blake." Another wrote, "If he Doesn't look at you the way RYAN looks at BLAKE, Girl he is not the one,”

As for Blake Lively's attire, it paid tribute to various iconic buildings of New York. The transformation from bronze-copper to blue-green came as an ode to the Statue of Liberty, whose colour has turned green over the centuries due to oxidation. The dress was encrusted with crystal and metallic leather and tri-tone copper foil. 

Talking to ET about the inspiration for the ensemble, Lively mentioned, "I looked at New York City architecture for this event, and I loved the copper patinas. I asked Versace if we could do it and they said, 'Oh god, OK, let's try!' And we did." For the uninitiated, the Met Gala theme this year is 'In America: An Anthology of Fashion'.
