Blake Lively doesn’t simply attend events—she curates her entrances like couture editorials, and last night’s appearance at Chanel’s 18th Annual Tribeca Artists Dinner was no exception. A vision in texture, shimmer, and sugary hues, the actress leaned into her signature brand of joyful maximalism with an ensemble that felt like summer in the shape of a dress.

Held at the iconic Odeon in New York City, the intimate Chanel-hosted soirée saw Lively arrive in an ethereal open-knit white midi from the maison itself. The delicate floral weave, skinny straps, and thigh-high slit gave the dress an undone elegance, breezy yet precise. But Blake, ever the fashion alchemist, wasn’t done there.
Cue the statement shoes: cream sandals adorned with pastel pearls, rainbow crystals, and glitter-pink soles—unmistakably Louboutin. The playful palette continued with outsized crystal-encrusted Chanel hoops, gemstone-stacked rings, and a baby-pink mani-pedi that radiated sweet-luxury energy.
Later in the evening, Lively draped herself in a denim jacket with crisp white-paneled sleeves, striking the perfect contrast against the femininity of the dress. Her accessory of choice? A ruby-red, translucent Chanel crossbody that shimmered like a candied apple dipped in diamonds—equal parts whimsical and high fashion.
Beauty-wise, she kept things gleaming: silver shimmer on the eyes, a high-gloss pink lip, and her iconic blonde mane falling in glossy, beachy waves that felt quintessentially Lively.
The evening marked not just another red carpet win for the Gossip Girl alum, but also a subtle statement of poise amid personal headlines. Earlier in the day, news broke that a judge had dismissed her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni’s counter-lawsuit in their ongoing legal feud—a development that didn’t dim her shine in the slightest.
