Why Is Blake Lively Not At The Met Gala? She’ll Be Somewhere More Comfortable

She’s indisputably one of the Queens of the social event of the year, so why is Blake Lively not at the Met Gala in 2023? Lively, after all, co-hosted the Met Gala in 2022 along with her husband Ryan Reynolds, Lin Manuel-Miranda and Regina King.

The theme was “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” with a gilded glamor dress code which Blake Lively took very seriously. The gilded age refers to the time period between 1870 and 1890 when New York City developed into its powerhouse of wealth, technology and decadence as a result of the industrial revolution.

Our imaginary celeb BFF stepped onto the Met steps in a floor-length Versace gown with billowing copper layers pinned at the waist.

As she ascended the steps, she took a dramatic pause and was surrounded by assistants that unclipped the layers from her waist.
