As expected, Blake Lively stunned on the red carpet for the ‘Savages’ LA premiere held at Westwood Village on Monday evening.
Dressed in a second-skin Zuhair Murad Spring 2012 Couture nude strapless gown with an intricate black beaded embroidered detail, the actress looked uber sexy channelling old Hollywood glamour.
She let the gown do all the talking opting for a few pieces of gold jewels including fan earrings plus she applied a red hot lip colour which matched her nails.
Blonde wavy locks swept over her shoulder à la Veronica Lake completed her look.
Dark roots aside, I love this look.
When I saw this collection presented back in January, Blake was on my wish list. Thankfully she did justice this gown.
Zuhair Murad’s sexy gowns and Blake’s smoking hot body continue to be a winning combination.

Oh my good god …. this is just superb. Its jaw droppingly beautiful. BDOTW and maybe BDOTY ???
WOW…what a return. She is killing this look.
gorgeous! BDOTW CONTENDER!
nothing about this look is surprising aside from the fact that she is wearing neither chanel nor marchesa to a major event. it would have been surprising if she had chosen something more subtle and sophisticated than going full jessica rabbit (and wasting that dress at a movie premiere when it was really worthy of the oscars, golden globes, or a major film festival). i’m sure she’ll win BDOTW, she does look great, but to me it’s just more of the same.
I didn’t realize how much I have been missing the Blake controversy! (Not)
She looks spectacular. The dress is gorgeous and fits her perfectly. Her hair and makeup are definitely old Hollywood glamour and work. I adore her earrings. Perhaps it is not the case with Blake, but many natural blonds have what appear to be dark roots when, in fact, they do not color their hair–in fact, if you look at the model wearing the gown, it is the same.
Wow – BDOTW
This look could have been amazing if it weren’t for those dark roots.
Of course people think Blake looks OTT in this gown for a premiere when Amber Heard, Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Watson, Elizabeth Banks and all the likes have worn gowns for their movie premieres.
I’m glad she looks this good because I’ve missed her on the redcarpet.
No offense to Blake, but of course you would pick a gown for something like a Hunger Games or a Harry Potter premiere, given the size and anticipation sorrounging the film, which is why for a premiere like this Blake’s look just screams overdressed and OTT.
I’ll give you Emma and Jennifer but Amber Heard wears gowns to her premieres and while Johnny Depp was in The Rum Diary, the movie itself was hardly a commercial film. It is more or less on the same level as Savages, yet people are floored by Amber but find Blake to be too OTT, especially considering that she hasn’t been on the redcarpet for months.
Lisa, you’ve said it. It’s her night, so why not go with a big bang? she looks amazing!
Totally agree with you! PERFECTION!
I’m happy to see Blake back, a perfect va voom moment here, every detail is working (save the roots but that’s minor for me, I’m still enjoying every minute!)
This is SO gorgeous! Loved the dress before but it looks amazing on her! BDOTW.
i think i said for the first time ever ‘WOW’ out loud..and then my mounth dropped before even realizing it was blake!!!LOVE IT!!
p.s.i think the whole look including the hair/makeup is very Amber Heard-esque..but blake is more statuesque so it looks even better on her!
and the earrings are gorgeous!
She looks gorgeous. This look reminds me of Amber Heard.
Why why why the dark roots? Still, definitely a worthy of being a BDOTW contender imo.
I can see the issues people are having with it (overdressed considering the occasion, Blake persona etc), but this blows my mind (and all those thoughts with it)!
Cant believe how stunning she looks! I adore the old hollywood glamour
wow! She looks amazing! Contender for BDOTW for sure !!!
don’t understand why so many people dislike blake!? Think she looks unreal
Breathtaking!She channels old Hollywood with the red lips and the hair a la Veronica Lake!Just perfect!BDOTW winner even without knowing the others…
WOW! this dress is amazing!!
but it deserved a bigger venue!
It looks great on her, but.. a movie premiere? poor dress..
OMG! My jaw just hit the floor.
She is perfection from HEAD to toe.
Love it.
Bang !! Blake is back !! And I never thought I’d say that cus I never liked her as a FASHIONISTA. My my my my my I can’t love this more ! She looks absolutely amazing !! I’m so happy . Haha
couldnt have said it better 🙂
She’s out of this world. Really stunning. my 3rd BDOTW-worthy.
Absolutely gorgeous!!! BDOTW !!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!!! Oh!!! Wow!!! What a return to the redcarpet.. SHe looks freaking amazing.. i love her…
She looks gorgeous, but the make-up is way too heavy.
+ 1
way too much makeup on a gorgeous girl who doesn’t need it. and the dark roots aren’t helping
Wow, she looks incredible, I’ll be remembering this look for the BDOTY poll!
This might sound harsh but honestly, I’ve never found this girl’s style or presence interesting. ever. And I don’t think that’s going to change. I’m at least happy here that she’s not ‘cheapening’ a ‘classy’ outfit. I’d also be glad if she doesn’t pick the likes of Jil Sander or Celine or Lanvin or ANY of the London designers. ever.
Now I’m going to browse through your earlier posts of Queen Cate or Thandie or Tilda to cleanse this sighting (God I feel awful 🙁 FC)
Having said that (;-p) yes, the look IS working for her
She’s worn Lanvin before and killed it. Sorrryyyyy. In 2010.
STUNNER!
Wow! What a dress! She looks HOT.. My first contender for BDOTW.
This was definitely a WOW moment for me. Amazing old Hollywood glamour for sure, she looks stunning and effortless. Hey styling is perfect!
I think she’s deffo channelling Veronica Lake
I also think this vamp style is a deliberate polar opposite to the innocent bridal sheath she wore for her last big premiere ‘The Green Lantern’
she was working the innocent bridal look because that coincided with those “pictures” of her leaking out
LOVE…. BDOTW contender….
Smoking hot!
+1
totally.
She looks gorgeous, I can’t deny it. But I agree that she’s trying too hard and I also find the roots quite jarring.
Oh my God !! She looks perfect from head to toe !
I feel that she’s trying wayyy too hard and this look is OTT.
First candidate for BDOTW list
Blake has SHUT IT DOWN- WHAT?!?! BDOTW – signed, sealed and delivered!
Wow she looks like such a screen siren amazing.
I’m speechless! Absolutely AMAZING. And I LOVE LOVE the hair. Best she’s looked maybe ever.
Absolutely stunning! Her best imo. BDOTW!
Can’t wait for the rest of the promo tour!
I love this girl so much and I missed her on the red carpet. Stunning gown, amazing look.
Drop dead gorgeous. She does more than justice to this gown. Head to toe perfect.
Here comes the haters attacking Blake again.
+1 With you word by word.
That show you work a red carpet.
*thats *how
lol! they just confirm how freaking hot she´s looking, when they try to find something to complain about. i can´t get over how stunning & classy she looks.
When I saw this earlier today my jaw dropped to the floor. Old Hollywood glamour was exactly the first thing that crossed my mind. She looks uber sexy, yes, but she doesn’t look tacky at all. I guess this is my favorite Blake look and one of my favorites of the year. So yeah, BDOTW.
smokin’
BDOTW contestant!
she looks absolutely amazing, i think this is the best she has ever looked. definitely a candidate for bdotw.
+1000! girlfriend blows my mind! just…wow! but haters are gonna hate anyway, which prooves how amazing she looks! I thought for one second she was in Versace, a Zuhair has never looked this sexy. Dayum!
sorry i can’t help but feeling she kinda cheapens the dress? :S
am i the only one feeling this way
great dress and she is looking good thou…
Stunning for sure, but somebody’s trying WAY too hard, it’s not the Oscars!
I agree. It’s way over the top for a film premiere.
Is there such a thing as being overdressed for a film premiere – why wouldn’t you want to look your best? I’d pick this over LBDs and black pumps any day.. Jessica Rabbit eat your heart out!
Of course there’s nothing wrong with wanting to look your best, but you can tell that she’s trying too hard to impress, glad that Chanel dropped her tbh!
Chanel didn’t drop her. She had a one season (Spring 2011) campaign contract like all the other models/actresses who have done their handbag campaigns. It’s different than a fragrance campaign like Keira Knightley’s.
This site has proven time and time again that beautiful looks exist between LBDs and OTT looks like this one.
She’s dressing for the job she wants which is movie star. Nothing wrong with that.
I agree but I can’t work out why. I’m nto against people wearing gowns to premieres, come awards season most people are too scared to wear killer gowns like this, so I’m thankful if anything that they get worn, I just think tthat teh hair & the makeup & the pose & the dress are maybe too much all together. I’m so excited to see her back, I’m really looking forward to seeing what she wears during the promo tour!
I love the dress, but I find the hair and the makeup tacky.
I think so too. She cheapens what could have been a great look. The roots are unsightly. Thankfully she didn’t do what she usually does when it comes to jewelry (excessorize)
Agree. The dress is absolutely beautiful!!!! but i think it would be perfection on Amber Heard.
Blake does cheapen it…a lot
She cheapens it big time with that hair, makeup and nail polish. She looks like a high-priced call girl.
Wow. Please excuse me while I pick my jaw up off the floor!
Werk it girl!
Wow!!! What an incredibly beautiful gown! She looks fantastic. Agreed on the roots FC. Personally i’m not crazy about the lip and nailcolour… Too predictable. I’d prefer a rouge noir color. She can pull it of with her stunning golden pallette.
She looks drop dead beautiful! BDOTW! 🙂 She is not playing when it comes to this promo tour.
