Blake Lively Went Out in a Purple Plunge Top and Pantsuit for Broadway Date With Ryan Reynolds
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively had a Broadway red carpet date night at The Music Man's premiere, although they posed separately inside the event. Lively, who acts as her own stylist, went for a true statement look. The actress stepped out in a purple Sergio Hudson pantsuit, consisting of a purple blazer, silky plunge top underneath, and high-waist pants. She wore her long blonde hair in curls.
Lively spoke about her choice to style herself in a 2018 interview with Women's Wear Daily. Her answer was a little joking at first, but then she explained sincerely she just enjoys putting her own looks together.
“I have control issues and a big ego—that’s probably the honest answer [for why I won't hire a stylist],” she deadpanned, per the outlet's reporter, before giving a more serious answer. “I just like it. I love design and I love fashion and it’s a way to be creative. In my job I get to be creative, but it’s over a period of time and so many other people are involved, whereas this is a beginning, middle and end, and I get to be creative and there’s an end date in the near future. It’s the same reason why I like doing my friends’ hair and makeup or cooking—you get to be creative and finish it. Whereas with my job you do it and then two years later it’s finished. It probably goes back to the control issues; it’s like, ‘Okay, I did it, I completed it, it’s done!’”
Lively added that the relationships she has built with designers makes it possible. “Once you have the clothes, you just pick out what to wear like any other human being does,” she said. “But it’s easier because you have access to clothes and so it’s not that hard. The hard part is going through all the fashion shows and screenshotting all the looks you like and calling them in. I have an assistant who helps in calling in the looks. But a lot of it is I have relationships with the designers.”
