Blake Lively, The Queen of Cannes.

Blake lively never fails to impress at Cannes film festival, and this year was no exception. 

At the 69th Cannes film festival, Blake Lively (who is currently pregnant with husband Ryan Reynolds) was seen walking the red carpet in gowns by Versace and Vivienne Westwood Couture.

It was speculated that Blake had taken inspiration from Disney princesses as her looks on the red carpet mostly resembled Princess looks. For example, Blake wore a very “Elsa” blue Versace dress and also a “Cinderella” gown.


See the images below for our favorite Blake Lively looks from Cannes this year and in previous years.

As for the Met Gala, stars were dressed in accordance to the exhibition. We’ve picked our top five below.


Kim Kardashian in Balmain. Kim’s dress has a robotic element to it which relates brilliantly to the upcoming exhibition.


Also in a robot-esque dress was Kate Hudson in Versace.


Rita Ora in Vera Wang. The dress featured a, what looks to be metal feathers, transition into actual feathers. Cleverly combining futuristic man made medium with natural texture.


Poppy Delevingne in Marchesa.



Claire Danes in Zac Posen. This dress was even fitted with fibre-optics, so it lit up, and really came to life.



And of course, for a bonus, Zayn Malik could go without a mention. Check out the suit complete with robot arms!
