With her most recent red carpet appearance, Blake Lively has declared that capes are in.
The 37-year-old former Gossip Girl star wore a stunning outfit at the LACMA Art + Film Gala on Saturday, Nov. 2, which celebrated filmmaker Baz Luhrmann and artist Simone Leigh. She looked stunning in a diamond chainmail minidress by Tamara Ralph that was “encrusted with resplendent rose gold, pink and dazzling topaz crystals,” the designer said on Instagram.
Lively’s voluminous, tangerine-orange silk taffeta cape, which hung around her body and fell down her arms as she posed for pictures, was what really made her appearance stand out.
Lively wore her blonde hair in lovely waves and accessorized her look with simple jewelry and matching heels.
Nicholas Hoult, Lisa Ann Walter, Kim Kardashian, Anna Wintour, Cara Delevingne, Chloë Sevigny, Kaia Gerber, Greta Lee, Tina Knowles, and Laura Dern were among the other famous people that attended the star-studded gala in Los Angeles.
Lively photographed with fashion designer Eva Chow, a LACMA trustee who co-chaired the event with Leonardo DiCaprio, and British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful during the evening.
Kardashian, 44, apparently received the fashion word about capes being trendy right now as well. The reality personality wore an all-white outfit that included a glitzy cloak and a dress with a plunging V-neck.
Kardashian accessorized with the late Princess Diana’s 5.25-carat diamond-encrusted Attallah cross pendant, which she bought for $197,453 at auction in 2023, during her brief appearance at the dinner. She accessorized the bold piece with a slicked-back haircut and pearl chokers.
Charli xcx and Troye Sivan were also present at the gala and gave a performance to cap the evening. Gerber, 23, and Delevingne, 32, approached the stage before Charli’s performance. She was “obsessed” with the “Apple” singer, Gerber gushed.
Charli, 32, sang “Von Dutch Remix,” “360,” and “365” while wildly welcoming the audience. The 29-year-old Sivan joined the singer for “Talk Talk” before performing the rest of the song alone.
