The grand reveal was hidden underneath her bow…

Actor Blake Lively never fails to deliver a fashion serve and she came through at the 2022 Met Gala, opting for a sweeping rose gold gown with an embellished bustier. Paired with evening gloves and a tiara (as you do), a gigantic bow at her waist hid a fashionable surprise which was unveiled on the Met’s carpet. 

In a video posted by Variety, a number of assistants stepped on the red carpet to help with the big reveal. As with Lady Gaga and Lil Nas X at previous Met Galas, her Atelier Versace dress transformed as the bow was untied resulting in one of this year’s most exciting moments.

Hiding underneath the bow was another train of her dress, which transformed the entire thing into a Tiffany blue and rose gold ballgown. Her pink gloves were also removed to reveal another set of evening gloves underneath, which matched the hue of her colour-changing dress.
