The Met Gala was filled with beautiful looks and ingenious designs. But there’s something missing: Blake Lively. His absence from the 2024 Met Gala is unfortunate, but we’re sure he has a good reason for not attending. After all, he’s a mother of four, star of two movies, and maybe he wanted to give others a chance to shine. Who could blame her?
In fact, it’s been two years since Blake Lively attended the Met Gala. He dazzled at the 2022 Met Gala in a Versace dress that, like the Statue of Liberty, went from copper to green. However, it was expected that he would not attend the 2023 Gala, as she had just given birth.

Luckily, we have plenty of Blake Lively’s looks from past Met Galas. There is no Met Gala look like Blake Lively’s, because his outfits match the carpet! Lively is one of the Gala’s favorite stars, like Sarah Jessica Parker, Rihanna, Beyoncé and Zendaya, who is co-chair of the event this year. Unlike these fashionistas, Lively doesn’t work with a stylist; He prefers to choose his own clothes and communicate directly with the designers. Lively is known for not only getting the theme right, but also matching his style with the rug. This has become a hallmark, and Lively is well aware of it.
Of course, her husband, Ryan Reynolds, wasn’t in attendance either. He never participates in bachelor parties and is also quite busy. Her next movie, ‘Deadpool and Wolverine,’ will likely be one of the biggest box office hits of the summer, but we’re just as excited about Lively’s upcoming movies. Not only will she star in the highly anticipated adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s bestseller ‘It Ends With Us,’ but she will also reunite with Anna Kendrick for the sequel to the cult classic ‘A Simple Favor.’ Almost as exciting as Blake Lively’s look for the 2024 Met Gala. Almost.
