On this episode of Fashion In Film,
I’ve curated mega workwear inspiration from Blake Lively’s character
in the 2018 hit movie
A Simple Favor!
Anyone who knows Blake Lively
is aware of her style prowess.
A fashionista through and through
She is an actress, philanthropist, member of the Beyhive
second half of the perfect couple duo
(RYAN + BLAKE FOREVER!)
and the one of my screen idols as a teenager
(Remember Gossip Girl!)
She was Serena with the amazing outfits
Blair Waldorf’s bestie/frenemy.
This week she takes home the Accelerate Fashionista crown based on her character in the Movie
A Simple Favor.
She plays the role of Emily Nelson an enigmatic, manipulative, cocktail loving style queen.
She scored major points for
The androgynous fashion she served us
and the workwear inspiration we didn’t know we needed
for our after lockdown wardrobe.

Blake Lively is rumoured to have loved this Zimmermann Corsage Stripe blazer so much,
she brought it home and wore it for the movie’s press tour.

It features a double-breasted in a slightly oversized silhouette.
I love how daring Blake was with this fit;
the cleavage, her chain-link accessories and that notched lapel.
Plus let’s not get into the cane!
All outfits were sourced and styled by costume designer Renée Ehrlich Kalfus who won a Costume Designers Guild Award in 2017 for Hidden Figures
