Blake Lively has officially hit her flower fashion peak during the It Ends With Us promo tour. The actress stepped out yesterday [Wednesday 31 July] in New York for a mammoth day of press stops, donning not one, not two but three (!!) stunning floral dresses throughout the 24 hours for the occasion.
To be fair, when you’re back on Serena van der Woodsen’s old stomping ground, you have to show up with multiple jaw-dropping ‘fits. Obvs we’re here to break each look down because knowing Blake, there are tiny hidden details everywhere.
The self-styled Blake kicked things off with a sheer blue sleeveless sheath dress from Dauphinette’s autumn winter 2024 collection printed with a celestial scene of cherubs playing music above scattered daisies and butterflies. The design (aptly named ‘Heaven Is a Place on Earth’) was finished with the most amazing rainbow ostrich feathered skirt, a multicoloured jewelled chain belt and rainbow crystal-embellished court shoes coordinating perfectly.
Giant chandelier earrings with blue jewels and multiple bejewelled cocktail rings added extra fun to the ensemble. It’s a rare example that sometimes more really is more.
Next up, another floral dress – this one more obvious in its flower connections.
The white maxi dress featured a plunging halterneck with a voluminous multi-layered skirt entirely covered in red roses and greenery. Blake added extra floral motifs with pale pink peep-toe Louboutin pumps featuring oversized 3D flowers constructed from multiple individual petals at the ankles. Purple and turquoise cocktail rings in the shape of flowers adorned one hand, with wooden bangles stacked up her opposite wrist.
Which brings us to Blake’s last look of the day.
She arrived in another Dauphinette creation, a cream maxi coat decorated with multicoloured beads and sequins to create the effect of fields of blooming flowers seen from afar. On her feet were sparkly red heels that Dorothy Gale would no doubt be jealous of.
However, her final ‘fit was actually a double whammy. Blake removed her coat to reveal an entirely beaded mini dress that intricately depicted a pond scene with fish swimming amongst lilypads and water irises – technically flowers, FYI. A white flower was attached to one shoulder strap like a corsage, with a red beaded fringe hem completing the show-stopping design.
Never one to forget an accessory, Blake toted a chain-link shoulder bag that realistically resembled a bejewelled mushroom. Okay, not a flower, but it *is* nature-themed.
Yep, following her crystal denim suit, nude floral leather lace dress, floral-embellished tutu, sheer black mini dress and Valentino flower cut-out jeans – we’re calling it. Blake’s floral fashion era has officially peaked.
