Blake Lively Has Another Iconic Hair Moment on the Met Gala 2022 Red Carpet —Photos

It’s never not a good hair day for Blake Lively. But the Met Gala 2022, for which the 34-year-old actor is a cohost alongside her husband Ryan Reynolds, naturally called for a little something extra. Lively hit the red carpet wearing a copper and turquoise Versace gown inspired by the Statue of Liberty, accessorizing it with a set of matching ombré opera gloves. But it wasn’t just the sweeping bustled train of her layered confection bringing the drama in the back.

To accompany her latest showstopping fashion moment, Lively wore a bejeweled Lorraine Schwartz crown atop her sought-after bright blonde mane. Evoking a soft romance, her thick lengths were plaited in the front and worn loose in the back, falling down past the small of her back to elegant effect. “We wanted the whole look to be fresh and glamorous at the same time,” explains her hairstylist Jennifer Yepez, who gave Lively a bombshell blowout using the Dyson Supersonic before using a 1-inch curling iron to create soft ripple waves toward the ends. “We thought that hair pulled away from her face, with gorgeous full hair down the back, would complete the look perfectly.” A true fairytale hair moment if there ever was one, it all but sealed the deal on Lively’s status as belle of the ball.
