Blake Lively And Ryan Reynolds's Best Red Carpet Moments Through The Years

Met Gala (May 2, 2022)

Lively and Reynolds were among the shining stars at the 2022 Met Gala, where both glowed on the Metropolitan Museum’s-carpeted red steps and served as the evening’s co-chairs (alongside Lin-Manuel Miranda and Regina King).

In light of the occasion’s “Gilded Glamour” theme, Lively channeled the Statue of Liberty in a shimmering rose-gold gown from Atelier Versace that boasted one of the actress’s most dramatic trains to date. The special custom gown—which was studded with geometric sequins—featured a layered puff train that later unraveled into a cascading teal train (a reflection of the statue’s colour change over the years).

Reynolds, meanwhile, looked sharp beside his wife in a dark brown velvet tuxedo from Ralph Lauren.

For the duo’s second-ever Met Gala appearance, Lively and Reynolds wore coordinating blue ensembles in line with the evening’s theme, “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between.” Lively looked goddess-like in a shimmering gold, long-sleeve ruched Atelier Versace gown featuring blue feather detailing at the train. Reynolds, meanwhile, wore a dark blue tuxedo paired with a blue velvet bowtie that matched Lively’s train.

During Reynolds’s special ceremony, Lively wore a custom Atelier Versace sapphire-blue midi dress paired with Louboutin sandals.

Less than two weeks following their official red-carpet debut in New York City, Lively and Reynolds glistened on another red carpet overseas for the world premiere of Captive during the 67th Annual Cannes Film Festival.

The two opted for coordinating looks from Gucci. Lively wore a strapless black-and-white gown (paired with a slick side ponytail, smoky eye, and bold red lip); and Reynolds chose a slick black tuxedo paired with a matching pearly-white bowtie.
