Lively even swapped copper opera gloves for green ones in a surprising style twist. However, once she got in front of the photographers, a team of assistants unraveled the metallic leather fabric at the waist, revealing a green look underneath meant to reference the Statue of Liberty for tonight's theme of 'In America: An Anthology of Fashion.' Lively, who arrived on the arm of husband Ryan Reynolds, made an entrance in a sweeping, dramatic copper look that featured a giant bow on her right hip. The fashion icon shut down the 2022 Met Gala red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC on May 2 in not one, but two looks by Versace Atelier ( see every star on the red carpet here). No one does the Met Gala like Blake Lively.
