Blake Lively is reportedly orchestrating a Hollywood comeback with the help of a fashion powerhouse. After her legal battle with Justin Baldoni, all eyes are on how she plans to reclaim her star status. According to RadarOnline, the It Ends With Us actress is quietly working with Vogue's Global Editorial Director to stage a comeback that focuses on couture and high-profile appearances.
“The focus is couture, flawless photo ops, surprise appearances, and eventually a major Vogue cover,” a fashion insider revealed.
The strategy seems to be in motion as Lively was recently seen at a Fendi event in New York City, sporting a sleek look reminiscent of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. Her outfit – form-fitting black jeans, a black tank, and a beige trench coat – was a statement of style, capturing the attention of fashionistas everywhere.
Behind this transformation is none other than Anna Wintour, the queen of fashion herself. Known for her influence, Wintour has reportedly been pivotal in guiding Lively's return to the spotlight. The timing couldn't be more perfect – Lively made a red carpet appearance at the Met Gala, an event synonymous with Wintour's influence.
A source close to the fashion icon noted, “Nothing excites Anna more than proving she can still make – or remake – a star.” With Wintour's backing, Lively's chances of a successful comeback seem promising.
Wintour's expertise isn't limited to Lively. She's also been credited with transforming Lauren Sánchez's image, pairing her with top stylist Law Roach. As Wintour biographer Amy Odell shared, “Her taste level is not the Vogue taste level.” Yet, under Wintour's guidance, Sánchez has become a fashion force to reckon with.
Will the same magic work for Blake Lively? Only time will tell, but with Anna Wintour in her corner, anything seems possible.
