Blake Lively stunned at the Copenhagen gala screening of It Ends With Us in another floral ensemble on Friday, amid rumors that the cast is feuding.
The 36-year-old American actress has undertaken a major promotional campaign on behalf of the film, a romantic drama based on the 2016 novel by Colleen Hoover.
In addition to her premieres and back-to-back appearances, the star has been sporting a constantly updated wardrobe of haute couture outfits, all of them floral-themed to match her character Lily Bloom, the owner of a flower shop in the film.
And the Copenhagen event was no exception, with the Gossip Girl actress turning heads in a gorgeous floor-length dress in nude, gold and purple tones by Versace.
Blake looked regal in the spectacular gown, which featured an embroidered and crystal-encrusted corset.
Blake Lively looked sensational on Friday at the Copenhagen Gala screening of It Ends With Us in another floral ensemble.

Blake, 36, has undertaken a major promotional campaign on behalf of the film, a romantic drama based on the 2016 novel by Colleen Hoover (pictured with Isabela Ferrer).
The Hollywood star styled her long blonde locks in a half-up, half-down hairstyle and accessorized with an array of dazzling jewelry.
Blake completed her red carpet look with large jeweled bracelets and dramatic blue and gold earrings.
She spoke to fans waiting to meet her at the screening and posed for photos with her co-star Isabela Ferrer, who plays a younger version of Lily.
The actress seemed in good spirits at the premiere, despite rumors of a fierce feud between Blake and her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni, who plays Ryle.
There has been talk of a feud between Justin, 40, and Blake, with online sleuths highlighting how the on-screen love interests were not pictured together at the US premiere, while some cast members have blatantly evaded questions about the director.
She happily took photos with her other castmates like Jenny Slate and Brandon Sklenar, but not with Justin, who was accompanied by his wife of 11 years, Emily Baldoni.
Two days later, Blake attended a photo call in London for the film with some of the other stars, but Justin was mysteriously absent.
Additionally, the two have not done any press together in the weeks leading up to the film’s release.

Instead, Blake sat down for an interview with her co-star, Brandon, last month; she and Brandon also participated in a promotional video with It Ends With Us stars Alex Neustaedter and Isabela Ferrer, but Justin had no part in it.
Eagle-eyed social media users also noticed that both Blake and author Colleen unfollowed Justin on Instagram recently.
Now, insiders have revealed the worrying truth about the tensions, telling DailyMail.com that Blake and Justin clashed over his “dismissive” attitude toward her “input” while filming scenes involving abuse.
The film, which hits theaters today and is based on Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel of the same name, follows Lily Bloom (Blake), a floral designer who falls for neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid, played by Justin, but soon after they begin dating, the romance turns toxic.
The source claimed Justin only focused on “what he believed to be the abusive male point of view” and had a very “chauvinistic” approach to the issue.
“During scenes depicting abuse, Justin failed to take Blake’s character’s perspective into account and focused solely on what he believed to be the abusive male point of view,” they said.
‘His approach was very chauvinistic and created a tense atmosphere on the set.’
The source claimed Justin was “almost abusive” on set and said it “almost became the character.”
The actress seemed in good spirits at the premiere, despite ongoing rumors of a feud between Blake and her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni, who plays the character of Ryle.
The source claimed Justin only focused on “what he believed to be the abusive male point of view” and had a very “macho” approach to the issue.
They called Justin, who also served as director and producer on the film, “borderline abusive” on set, saying he “almost became the character.”
“Justin almost became the character in the sense that some women on set felt he was almost abusive to them and that he was unprofessional and unapologetic,” they said.
“To make such a serious and important film about domestic abuse without allowing women to be included in this process is disturbing.”
The source claimed the actor, who also served as director and producer, “failed to acknowledge” Blake and Colleen’s roles as producer and writer.
And he was said to have taken it “very personally” when the couple asked him to rewrite some scripts.
“Without Colleen’s book, none of this would have been possible,” they said.
“Some parts of the film were rewritten under Colleen’s direction, that’s true. He took the script decisions very seriously, even though that wasn’t the intention.”
They said things only got worse when he started feeling “attacked” by women on set.
“His behavior extended beyond the main characters,” the source continued. “Once he felt attacked, he became even less empathetic.”
“Now he speaks highly of him, probably out of fear of being criticized. He knows he will be criticized and might try to blame his actions on the fact that he is a method actor.”
DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for Blake, Justin and Colleen for comment.
