On Saturday, Nov. 2, the Gossip Girl alum, 37, wore a dramatic ensemble at the LACMA Art + Film Gala, which honored artist Simone Leigh and filmmaker Baz Luhrmann. She dazzled in a Tamara Ralph diamond chainmail minidress "encrusted with resplendent rose gold, pink and dazzling topaz crystals," according to an Instagram post shared by the designer.
But what really took Lively's look over the top was her voluminous, tangerine-orange silk taffeta cape, which cascaded down her arms and draped around her body as she posed for photos.
