It marked her first talk show appearance since her ongoing legal entanglement with <em data-start=\"714\" data-end=\"731\">It Ends with Us<\/em> co-star Justin Baldoni became public knowledge \u2014 but if Lively was feeling the pressure, you\u2019d never know it. The \u201cBetty Booze\u201d founder stepped out in true cinematic style, turning the streets of New York City into her personal runway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"969\" data-end=\"1463\">Lively\u2019s first look of the night was a show-stopping white ruffled dress by the inimitable Christopher John Rogers \u2014 a designer beloved for his theatrical silhouettes and color-drenched imagination. The dress was quintessential Lively: romantic yet structured, with a plunging neckline and a tightly-fitted bodice that gave way to dramatic, architectural ruffles at the hips. The hem fell just above the ankles, revealing a pair of strappy, bedazzled heels that glistened under the city lights.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_29662\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29662\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29662\" src=\"https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b4.jpg?strip=all&quality=92&webp=92\" alt=\"Blake Lively\" width=\"320\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b4.jpg?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 320w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b4-200x300.jpg?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 200w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b4-150x225.jpg?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 150w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b4-300x450.jpg?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 300w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b4-32x48.jpg?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 32w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b4-64x96.jpg?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 64w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-29662\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">source: TheStewartofNY\/GC Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1465\" data-end=\"2054\">The accessories were equally noteworthy. She layered chunky gold bangles adorned with multicolored stones across her wrist, creating an eye-catching juxtaposition against the monochromatic base. Her drop earrings featured playful pops of color, drawing the eye upward to her softly styled beauty look \u2014 a half-up, half-down cascade of blonde curls that nodded to Old Hollywood glamor with a modern ease. Her makeup was a study in soft sophistication: muted tones, glowing skin, and a fresh, natural flush. Even her nails were kept short and clean, allowing the rest of the look to breathe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2056\" data-end=\"2240\">Clutched in hand was a festive white handbag emblazoned with vivid illustrations \u2014 a whimsical punctuation mark that made the ensemble feel effortlessly joyful rather than overthought.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2242\" data-end=\"2753\">But Blake being Blake, one scene-stealing look simply wouldn\u2019t do. After taping the episode, she stepped out in a second ensemble that was no less sensational. Channeling a balletcore fantasy, Lively was spotted in a second gown that has already earned cult status among the fashion elite \u2014 previously seen on Charli XCX and Kerry Washington. The silhouette evoked the dreamy elegance of a prima ballerina mid-performance, layered in frothy textures that moved with balletic grace as she floated past paparazzi.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_29660\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29660\" style=\"width: 683px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29660\" src=\"https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2.webp?strip=all&quality=92&webp=92\" alt=\"Blake Lively\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 683w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2-200x300.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 200w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2-150x225.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 150w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2-300x450.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 300w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2-32x48.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 32w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2-64x96.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92 64w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92&amp;w=409 409w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92&amp;w=478 478w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92&amp;w=546 546w, https:\/\/ecjxfgbqjgd.exactdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b2.webp?strip=all&amp;quality=92&amp;webp=92&amp;w=614 614w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-29660\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">source: TheStewartofNY\/GC Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2755\" data-end=\"3272\">Lively&#8217;s appearance is more than just a fashion moment; it\u2019s a reassertion of her style supremacy at a pivotal time in her career.
