Leicester Square was transformed into a landmark fit for Hollywood royalty on Thursday night as Blake Lively celebrated the release of his new film It Ends With Us in central London.
The American actress has been on a whirlwind promotional spree for the film, a romantic drama based on the 2016 novel by Colleen Hoover.
And making her final stop in London was Lively, 36, who pulled out all the stops in preparation for the film’s UK premiere at Odeon Luxe.
The actress looked stunning in another elegant floral gown – a recurring theme during her current promotional tour – as she greeted onlookers at the event.
The tasteful, fitted, floor-length dress featured striking Bardot detailing and a plunging front that partially exposed her décolletage.

The actress completed her look with a striking red faux fur cape, while glittering silver heels were visible beneath her long hem as she walked the white carpet.
This Ends With Us centers on Lively’s Lily, a flower shop owner who finds herself caught up in a complicated love triangle between handsome neurosurgeon Ryle — Justin Baldoni, who also directs — and her handsome high school sweetheart Atlas, played with lovable gestures by Brandon Sklenar.
But when Ryle’s violent outbursts make her fear he’s an abusive partner, she turns to Atlas for help. After running into him at a restaurant where he works, they reconnect.
The film is based on the bestseller of the same name by Colleen Hoover, which was a hit with readers after its publication in 2016.
After being postponed several times, the release date was set for August 9 this year.
