Blake Lively officially peaked in floral fashion during her promo tour for It Ends With Us. The actress went out yesterday [Wednesday 31 July] In New York, a large group of reporters spent the day interviewing her, wearing not one, not two, but three (!!) stunning floral dresses around the clock.
To be fair, returning to Serena van der Woodsen’s former stage presence is bound to cause a number of jaw-dropping “fits.” Obviously, knowing Blake, there are little hidden details everywhere, so we’re here to break down each look.
The self-styled break kicked things off with a sheer blue sleeveless sheath dress from Dauphinette’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection, printed with a celestial scene of angels playing music above a scattering of daisies and butterflies. Ta. This design (appropriately named “Heaven Is a Place on Earth”) features the most stunning rainbow ostrich feather skirt, multi-colored jeweled chain belt, and rainbow crystal-embellished court shoes that are perfectly coordinated. It was completed.

Huge chandelier earrings with blue gemstones and multiple bejeweled cocktail rings added extra fun to the ensemble. This is a rare case, but sometimes more is better.
Next up is another floral dress. This one has a more obvious connection with flowers.

The white maxi dress featured a plunging halter neck and a voluminous multi-layered skirt covered entirely in red roses and greenery. Blake added more floral motifs with pale pink peep-toe Louboutin pumps that featured an oversized 3D flower made from multiple petals at the ankle. One hand is adorned with a flower-shaped purple and turquoise cocktail ring, while the other wrist is stacked with wooden bangles.
Here we see the last of Blake for the day.

She arrived wearing another Dauphinette piece. The cream maxi coat is embellished with colorful beads and sequins to create the effect of a blooming flower field seen from a distance. On her feet were sparkly red heels that would definitely make Dorothy Gale jealous.
But her last bout was actually a double whammy. Blake took off her coat to reveal a mini dress with beading all over. The dress featured an intricate depiction of a pond scene with fish swimming among water lilies and irises. FYI, it’s actually a flower. A white flower is attached like a corsage to one shoulder strap, and a red beaded fringe is attached to the hem, completing an eye-catching design.
Never one to forget about accessories, Blake carried a chain-link shoulder bag that realistically resembled a bejeweled mushroom. It’s not a flower, but it’s nature themed.
Well, following her crystal denim suit, nude floral leather lace dress, floral embellished tutu, sheer black minidress, and Valentino floral cutout jeans, we’ve got it! That’s what I call it. Blake’s floral fashion era has officially reached its peak.
