Blake Lively has long made a major impact on red carpets. Whether she's in Burberry at the Met Gala, at a White House State Dinner in Ralph & Russo, or taking on the fray at the Cannes Film Festival in Salvatore Ferragamo, her approach is always fashion forward, fun, and directional. Therefore, when Lively, now a mother of two, emerged yesterday evening at L’Oréal Paris’s Women of Worth Awards in New York City in a decidedly demure Lanvin dress, it turned heads for more than one reason.
This was Lively's first red carpet appearance since giving birth to her second daughter, in a one-note ensemble that benefited from clever design details including sheer sleeves hinting at skin. The neckline was a feminine take on menswear lapels, while a slightly slouchy silhouette lent Lively a polished easiness, which was reinforced through minimal accessories. Opting to keep her look streamlined, the actress strapped on Stuart Weitzman nude sandals for a leg-lengthening effect with subtle sophistication.
