Blake Lively’s Met Gala dresses: All the looks

With the 2024 Met Gala just days away, we’re taking a look back at all the standout looks your favorite stars have shown off in the past on fashion’s biggest night.

Actress Blake Lively is one who always manages to make her Met Gala appearances fashion moments.

Lively last attended the annual Costume Institute Benefit as a co-chair in 2022. For the “In America: An Anthology of Fashion”-themed gala, she wore a custom Versace gown that transformed on the red carpet.

The actress has not commented on whether or not she’ll attend this year — and the guest list is never revealed prior to the gala.

After she missed last year’s benefit, fans are hoping to see her on the famous steps of the Met Monday night for the gala honoring the Met’s spring exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”

The dress code for the star-studded benefit is “The Garden of Time.”

Take a look back at all of Lively’s looks from her past appearances at the Met Gala.
