Co-chair of this year's Met Gala Blake Lively stunned husband and co-chair Ryan Reynolds on the red carpet while unveiling the train of her dress.
Lively, 34, and Reynolds, 45, arrived together dressed to the theme of Gilded Glamor and White Tie. Reynolds wore a velvet dark red suit matching the rose-colored satin bow on Lively's beaded Versace gown.
However, Lively had surprises in store for the cameras, and apparently her husband.
As the actress made her way to the steps of the Met a team of people helped un-bustle the satin bow revealing a long light blue colored dress with matching satin gloves.
Standing nearby, Reynolds' mouth dropped in awe as he watched his wife's dress turn into a more extravagant gown.
