 Blake Lively wows in ZUHAIR MURAD for #Time100 Gala.
Lively's dress came courtesy of the designer's spring 2025 ready-to-wear collection. Blake Lively was honoured as one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People of 2025 for her philanthropic work—but at the TIME100 Gala last night, it was her heartfelt speech about her mother, Willie Elaine McAlpin, and the resilience of women that the audience found touching.. She arrived in a striking red Zuhair Murad Spring 2025 off-the-shoulder taffeta gown, complete with a dramatic train. Was the bold colour a nod to TIME’s iconic red, strength, or perhaps a tribute to the fierce femininity she spoke about in her speech? I’d wager all three. We know Blake doesn’t do things by halves. While the gown itself had a quieter elegance than her usual go-big-or-go-home aesthetic, she cranked the volume back up with Lorraine Schwartz emerald and jade jewellery. The earrings were enough to stun on their own, but true to Blake form, she added bangles and rings because restraint has never been her thing. And honestly? I’m not mad at it. Also, can we take a moment for the hair? Whether it’s the result of her own haircare line or a new stylist with magic hands, Blake’s 2025 hair game has been consistently glossy. Like, mirror-shine levels of glossy. She may have toned things down ever so slightly, but the drama, the sparkle, and the Blake-isms we love? All accounted for. Christian Louboutin Crystal Queen sandals completed her look. |
