Naturally, Blake Lively's press costumes reflect her character's profession—she plays a florist named Lily Bloom. There have been beaded floral short dresses, flowers weaved into her lionized blonde hair, and even an Oscar de la Renta outfit that resembles a cool and composed garden. The actress, who notably works as her own stylist, has also discovered a special blend of young talent and home decor designers. She has worn many pieces from the artsy New York label Dauphinette, as well as vintage Dior and Vivienne Westwood pieces and classic Valentino and Chanel outfits. Here's more to know about how florals conquered all her outfits during the premiere of her movie 'It Ends With Us'.
Blake Lively - A Fan of Flowers and Her Character 'Lily Bloom'
Renowned actress Blake made quite an impression with her floral-themed outfits at the premiere of It Ends With Us, bringing forward the essence of her character, Lily Bloom, and her connection to flowers. Her fashion choices during the press tour were both a nod to her character's love for florals and a display of her personal style. Lively, known for not using a stylist, selected each outfit with a theme that subtly intertwined with the narrative of her character, who owns a flower shop in the movie.
Among her standout looks, the actress wore a vintage blue Dior skirt suit, which at first glance seemed like a classic navy blue ensemble. However, on closer inspection, the suit featured tiny daisy prints, sticking closely to the floral theme.

She accessorized with Manolo Blahnik pumps that echoed the daisy motif, and Lorraine Schwartz floral earrings, all adding to the floral narrative she was entwining throughout her press tour. This choice reflected the floral-centric life of her character in the film, showing how flowers could be a part of everyday fashion as well as storytelling. Here are more outfits of her choice for the premiere days of her movies, all of which involved and had flowers! One standout outfit was a fuchsia dress by Dauphinette filled with flowers as well as had her hair braided with floral choices of her own with a spectacular background of a 'Betty Bloom's stand designed by Starbright Floral Design.

A Personal and Elegant Style With Flowers as the Main Exponents
Lively also channeled a different vibe with Stella McCartney chap jeans embroidered with brown flowers, bringing a more modern and edgy floral twist. This outfit, paired with a Tory Burch vinyl bodysuit, showcased her ability to adapt the floral theme in a non-traditional yet stylish way.
Her use of floral embroidery in this outfit represented a playful nod to her character Lily Bloom's world, combining modern fashion elements with the natural and delicate theme of not only florals but her general role in an abusive relationship. At the end of the day, in the movie, she saw her store and flowers as a way of healing her wounds. Flowers for healing and flowers as a way of creativity are what she wanted to show in her most recent movie.
Her approach to fashion during this press tour was about more than just looking good, as it was a representation of Lily Bloom's connection to flowers. Selecting outfits that incorporated floral patterns and elements, allowed her to fully embody her character's essence and also demonstrated how flowers and fashion are one, noting how necessary they are to beautify any garment.
