NEW YORK — Kim Kardashian wasn’t the only star to bring the drama to the Met Gala red carpet.
According to The Associated Press, co-host Blake Lively, accompanied by husband Ryan Reynolds, arrived at Monday night’s event in a rose gold Atelier Versace gown. But when the “Gossip Girl” alum stopped on the stairs, the tug of a bow unveiled a sparkling baby-blue train. Lively, 34, also swapped her pink evening gloves with blue ones as onlookers cheered, the news outlet reported.
