Blake Lively Wears Chanel at the 2011 Met Gala

Met Gala: Blake Lively

by 14

Blake Lively looks reminiscent of Botticelli's Primavera in a silver and buff Chanel gown with strategically placed appliques and a sweeping drape. Unlike her dress's homage to classical and renaissance style, though, Blake's newly red curls and bubblegum pink lipstick are both thoroughly modern. Do you think it's a good mix, or should she have tried something a little different? Vote on all of our Met Gala polls here!

i like the dress but maybe with the hair up or at least not so much hair hanging down on the dress, also the makeup is not nice; doesnt make her look as cute as she ususaly looks

Awful, this must look so unflattering from the back.

I love this. Love the sari-style of the dress!

I really like it. Her blonde always had some red in it, this is just more pronounced, on the blonder side of strawberry. And of course it has the shine of new all-over color. The shine of new color is like getting your own spotlight, wish I could experience it everyday.

I don't think it's vulgar at all. She has a great head of hair, and if the dress was made black satin from the waist down with the wrap part taken off, it would be gorgeous.

Love the dress, the sequins+organza combination and the amazing colour. Also, Isla has the best hair in Hollywood.

Don't like the dress but am LOVING her red haired!
Used to love what she wore, she's been disapointing for some time now...Like, is it MET Gala really the place to wear this??? Out of place and frankly, a bit vulgar as well.
