She has modelled for brands including Gucci and Chanel so it's not surprising Blake Lively stepped out to enjoy Fashion Week in New York.
While the 26-year-old actress has maintained a relatively low profile since tying the knot with Ryan Reynolds in 2012, she came out of her self-imposed exile to show off her best assets in a plunging dress at the Michael Kors show, alongside stars including Michael Douglas.
While the pattern and length of the dress could have looked old-fashioned and conservative, the V-neckline, showing off her tanned cleavage and front slit, displaying her legs, gave it a youthful look.
