Lily pulled her raven tresses up into a stylish up do and accessorised with dazzling jewllerey.
Both Lily's posed up a storm on the red carpet as they joined Christy Turlington, Lorelle Lynch, Lucy Liu, and Alisha Boe at the glitzy event.
Actress Blake Lively also made an appearance just hours after breaking her silence on Justin Baldoni's $400 million countersuit dismissal after It Ends With Us legal war.
The actress, 37, released a powerful statement hours after a judge dismissed Justin's case.
'Last week, I stood proudly alongside 19 organizations united in defending women's rights to speak up for their safety,' she said on Instagram on Monday.
'Like so many others, I've felt the pain of a retaliatory lawsuit, including the manufactured shame that tries to break us.'
The Los Angeles-born star continued: 'While the suit against me was defeated, so many don't have the resources to fight back.'
Blake, who shares four children with husband Ryan Reynolds, vowed that she was 'more resolved than ever to continue to stand for every woman's right to have a voice in protecting themselves, including their safety, their integrity, their dignity and their story.'
The Gossip Girl alum wrapped up in thanking those in the public who have supported her amid the turbulent past year.
'With love and gratitude for the many who stood by me, many of you I know,' Lively said. 'Many of you I don't. But I will never stop appreciating or advocating for you.'
The It Ends With Us actress, whose legal battle with Justin Baldoni has had a significant impact on her friendship with Taylor Swift, added a list of groups that had publicly supported her amid the highly-publicized Tinseltown tussle.
Among them, in alphabetical order, were the California Employment Lawyers Association, California Women's Law Center, CHILD USA, Coalition Against Trafficking in Women, Equal Rights Advocates, Esperanza United, Her Justice, and Herunivercity Inc.
In a move that might have been a harbinger of changing momentum in the case, Blake took aim at Justin on Thursday, saying that women's groups had abandoned him in droves.
A total of '19 leading survivors and organizations devoted to women's rights, children's rights and domestic violence have now signed onto four separate amicus briefs,' a spokesperson for the Another Simple Favor actress told Daily Mail in a statement.
The statement continued: 'All are united in opposing Justin Baldoni's attempt to dismantle a law designed to protect women who speak up — simply to protect himself.'
Blake's team said that Justin was going against his own playbook as the complicated legal case progresses, leaving himself open to increased scrutiny in the wake of his past public statements.
Rather than defend his case on the facts, Justin is now contradicting years of his own public persona - abandoning the message of his #MeToo YouTube's, podcasts, TED Talks, and interviews, where he once upon a time urged men 'to listen to the women in your life … to hold their anguish and actually believe them, even if what they're saying is against you,' Blake's rep said.
Dailymail.com has reached out to reps for Justin for further comment on this story.
The statement wrapped up: 'These women and organizations are sounding the alarm about his DARVO tactics, and the chilling effect they could have well beyond this case.'
One party that can breathe a sigh of relief after Justin's lawsuit was thrown out is Marvel Entertainment, LLC.
Justin had subpoenaed the studio to get it to preserve any documents related to the Deadpool & Wolverine character Nicepool, which his legal team claimed was designed 'to mock, harass, ridicule, intimidate or bully' Justin.
But after throwing out Justin's lawsuit, Liman agreed to Marvel's request to 'quash the subpoena issued to Marvel from [Justin's] Wayfarer Parties and for a protective order prohibiting the disclosure of Marvel's confidential documents.'
Justin's team had send a letter requesting documents be retained to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and Bob Iger, CEO of its parent company Walt Disney, on January 7.
Blake has accused Justin of sexual harassment in a lawsuit; while Justin accused Blake, her husband Ryan Reynolds and publicist Leslie Sloane of defamation and extortion in a $400 million suit - the latter of which was dismissed Monday.
Justin has denied the allegations brought about by Blake, while Blake, Ryan and Leslie have denied the accusations made in litigation by Justin.
Blake in December sued Justin amid claims of sexual harassment during production of the motion picture. In her lawsuit, the Gossip Girl alum accused Justin of sexually harassing her in multiple ways — including body shaming her — and orchestrating a smear campaign against her to damage her reputation.
Justin and his reps have said in response to the lawsuit that Blake twisted the meaning of text messages and mislead the public about their interactions while making the motion picture.
In her lawsuit, Blake named a number of Justin's collaborators, including his company Wayfarer Studios, the studio's CEO and financial backer, and PR personnel Melissa Nathan and Jennifer Abel.
Justin subsequently sued the newspaper for $250 million in a defamation claim over a December 21 story titled '"We Can Bury Anyone": Inside a Hollywood Smear Machine ;' the newspaper has denied the allegations.
Justin on January 16 filed a $400 million lawsuit against Blake, Ryan and her publicist Leslie Sloane, alleging defamation and extortion. Justin told the court the trio had concocted 'false accusations of sexual harassment' against him.

Brad Pitt's F1 gamble: does Hollywood's golden boy still impress us much?
T hroughout the Nineties and Noughties Brad Pitt was the go-to movie star — the surefire answer if there were ever a Family Fortunes question that asked 100 people to name a famous actor: 'Our survey says … Brad Pitt!' Behind him came George Clooney, Tom Cruise, Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp. This leading-man sex appeal was debuted in 1991 when Pitt appeared topless in a cowboy hat in Thelma & Louise — sparkling blue eyes, devilish grin, effortless cool. He went on to star in a string of varied Nineties hits, cementing his status as the apex celebrity. He was the only actor who could play Tyler Durden in Fight Club, the Übermensch that every man aspired to be. But times change. It has been six years since Pitt's last undeniably great film, Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, and even that was an outlier amid a run of expensive war movies that few remember. At times in the past decade the 61-year-old Pitt has felt like a star who became a supernova — an impression not helped by a lengthy divorce from Angelina Jolie, whose lawyers accused the actor of assaulting her and two of their children. Pitt denies the allegations.

Holly Willoughby oozes festival chic in a leggy black mini dress and fedora as she leads the celebrities on the second day of sun-soaked Glastonbury
oozed festival chic as she led the celebrities on the second day of sun-soaked Glastonbury on Saturday. The TV personality, 44, put on a very leggy display in a black lace mini dress which she teamed with chunky boots as she was spotted strolling around Worthy Farm ahead of perfomances by Neil Young, Raye and Kaiser Chiefs. Holly cinched her tiny waist with a leather belt and shielded her famous features beneath chic shades and an oversized fedora. Completing the look with statment jewellery the stunner appeared to be in her element as she enjoyed the festival with pals. Elsewhere Lily Allen appeared to be in good spirits as she stepped out with her stylist Marco Capaldo. The Smile hitmaker, 40, and the 16Arlington co-founder got ready for a Kicking off another day at the Somerset event, Lily looked stylish in a Barbour Bedale wax jacket and Bede wellies. She carried her belongings in a chic black handbag and shielded her eyes with sleek black sunglasses. Meanwhile, Marco kept things cool in an all-black look, pairing black jeans with a chunky knitted jumper. As the weather warmed up, Lily had a quick outfit change and showed off her figure in a striking red lace lingerie set layered under a brown mesh skirt. She swept a cropped red and green jacket over her shoulders to complete her boho-chic look. She shielded her eyes with silver metal frames, carried a matching red padded bag, and completed the look with chunky black boots. Earlier this week, friends Lily and Marco attended the glitzy Serpentine Gallery Summer Party together in London. The singer - who recently split from David Harbour, 50 - turned heads in a strapless black gown adorned with dramatic white feathers and polka dots. Meanwhile, Marco opted for a classic black tuxedo over a crisp white top. The pair appeared in high spirits as they posed for snaps on the red carpet before entering the starry event. Earlier this month, Lily enjoyed a date with actor James Norton, 39, after meeting on the celebrity dating app Raya. The duo made the most of their first outing together, with the pair reportedly seen kissing backstage while attending Charli XCX's Lido Festival show. The singer and actor, 39, were pictured cosying up to one another and sipping on non-alcoholic beers as they watched Charli's show in the capital, before heading to a backstage compound to party with the singer. A source told The Sun: 'James and Lily looked very into each other and they were snogging backstage. 'We were all quite surprised to see them there together, let alone kissing. 'I don't think they've even known each other that long, but it was a fun hang-out backstage and they got taken away by the vibe.' Lily ended her marriage to Stranger Things star husband David Harbour, 50, in December 2024 after four years of marriage, following her discovery he had a secret profile on Raya. James is said to have split from model girlfriend Charlotte Rose Smith, 26, last month before being spotted back on the star-studded dating site. Raya is so exclusive that it accepts only around eight per cent of applicants, but it has more than 10,000 members, with 100,000 on the waiting list. James' Raya profile is said to feature photos of the Happy Valley star with a shaved head – a dramatic new look he's adopted for his upcoming role in Sunny Dancer, currently being filmed in Scotland with co-star Bella Ramsey. The hunk, who is a strong contender to be the next James Bond, started dating Charlotte late last year and was pictured out with her on several occasions. At the time, an insider told The Sun: 'They have been enjoying dates and seem very happy together. 'It has been a year since his relationship with [ex Imogen Potts] ended and he appears to get on so well with Charlotte. They make a lovely couple.' Not long before Lily split from husband David, she turned amateur sleuth after speculating that David had 'cheated' on the same dating app where they met. She was left in 'agony' when she allegedly discovered the actor had a secret profile, The Mail on Sunday revealed. The pop star joined the app herself, pretending to be 'looking for women' – and allegedly found that David had already set up a dating profile. He was reportedly listed on the app as being active for at least a month. Once users find a new partner, they usually disable their profiles. A source said: 'Lily was looking for women that were on Raya and cross-referencing them with women David follows on Instagram to try to figure out who he was seeing. She was doing her Wagatha thing. 'Lily only rejoined Raya to try to figure out whether he was seeing someone. 'Lily has never even looked at anyone since she met David. She is devastated. He broke up with Lily a month ago.

BREAKING NEWS Legendary Mission: Impossible composer dies aged 93
The legendary composer, who wrote the Mission: Impossible score, has passed away at the age of 93. Lalo Schifrin died inside his Los Angeles home on Thursday from complications with pneumonia, his son, Ryan, confirmed. He was surrounded by his loved ones. Schifrin was a jazz pianist and classical conductor and had a remarkable career in music that included working with Dizzy Gillespie and recording with Count Basie and Sarah Vaughan. His biggest contribution was the instantly recognizable score to television's Mission: Impossible, which fueled the just-wrapped, decades-spanning feature film franchise led by Tom Cruise. Schifrin originally wrote a different piece of music for the theme song but series creator Bruce Geller liked another arrangement Schifrin had composed for an action sequence. 'The producer called me and told me: 'You're going to have to write something exciting, almost like a logo, something that will be a signature, and it's going to start with a fuse,'' Schifrin told the AP in 2006. 'So I did it and there was nothing on the screen. And maybe the fact that I was so free and I had no images to catch, maybe that's why this thing has become so successful - because I wrote something that came from inside me.' When director Brian De Palma was asked to take the series to the silver screen, he wanted to bring the theme along with him, leading to a creative conflict with composer John Williams, who wanted to work with a new theme of his own. Out went Williams and in came Danny Elfman, who agreed to retain Schifrin's music. Hans Zimmer took over scoring for the second film, and Michael Giacchino scored the next two. Giacchino told NPR he was hesitant to take it on, because Schifrin's music was one of his favorite themes of all time. 'I remember calling Lalo and asking if we could meet for lunch,' Giacchino told NPR. 'And I was very nervous - I felt like someone asking a father if I could marry their daughter or something. And he said, 'Just have fun with it.' And I did.' Mission: Impossible won Grammys for best instrumental theme and best original score from a motion picture or a TV show. In 2017, the theme was entered into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Schifrin has composed more than 100 arrangements for film and TV. The Argentine won four Grammys and was nominated for six Oscars, including five for original score for Cool Hand Luke, The Fox, Voyage of the Damned, The Amityville Horror and The Sting II. 'Every movie has its own personality. There are no rules to write music for movies,' Schifrin told The Associated Press in 2018. 'The movie dictates what the music will be.' He also wrote the grand finale musical performance for the World Cup championship in Italy in 1990, in which the Three Tenors - Plácido Domingo, Luciano Pavarotti and José Carreras - sang together for the first time. The work became one of the biggest sellers in the history of classical music. Schifrin was born Boris Claudio Schifrin to a Jewish family in Buenos Aires - where his father was the concertmaster of the philharmonic orchestra - Schifrin was classically trained in music, in addition to studying law. After studying at the Paris Conservatory - where he learned about harmony and composition from the legendary Olivier Messiaen - Schifrin returned to Argentina and formed a concert band. Gillespie heard Schifrin perform and asked him to become his pianist, arranger and composer. In 1958, Schifrin moved to the United States, playing in Gillespie's quintet in 1960-62 and composing the acclaimed Gillespiana. The long list of luminaries he performed and recorded with includes Ella Fitzgerald, Stan Getz, Dee Dee Bridgewater and George Benson. He also worked with such classical stars as Zubin Mehta, Mstislav Rostropovich, Daniel Barenboim and others. Schifrin moved easily between genres, winning a Grammy for 1965's Jazz Suite on the Mass Texts while also earning a nod that same year for the score of TV's The Man From U.N.C.L.E. In 2018, he was given an honorary Oscar statuette and, in 2017, the Latin Recording Academy bestowed on him one of its special trustee awards. Later film scores included Tango, Rush Hour and its two sequels, Bringing Down The House, The Bridge of San Luis Rey, After the Sunset, and the horror film Abominable. Writing the arrangements for Dirty Harry, Schifrin decided that the main character wasn't in fact Clint Eastwood's hero, Harry Callahan, but the villain, Scorpio. 'You would think the composer would pay more attention to the hero. But in this case, no, I did it to Scorpio, the bad guy, the evil guy,' he told the AP. 'I wrote a theme for Scorpio.' It was Eastwood who handed him his honorary Oscar. 'Receiving this honorary Oscar is the culmination of a dream,' Schifrin said at the time. 'It is mission accomplished.' Among Schifrin's conducting credits include the London Symphony Orchestra, the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, the Israel Philharmonic, the Mexico Philharmonic, the Houston Symphony Orchestra, the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra and the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. He was appointed music director of Southern California's Glendale Symphony Orchestra and served in that capacity from 1989-1995. Schifrin also wrote and adapted the music for Christmas in Vienna in 1992, a concert featuring Diana Ross, Carreras and Domingo. He also combined tango, folk and classical genres when he recorded Letters from Argentina, nominated for a Latin Grammy for best tango album in 2006. Schifrin was also commissioned to write the overture for the 1987 Pan American Games, and composed and conducted the event's 1995 final performance in Argentina. And for perhaps one of the only operas performed in the ancient Indigenous language of Nahuatl, in 1988 Schifrin wrote and conducted the choral symphony 'Songs of the Aztecs.' The work premiered at Mexico's Teotihuacan pyramids with Domingo as part of a campaign to raise money to restore the site's Aztec temple. 'I found it to be a very sweet musical language, one in which the sounds of the words dictated interesting melodies,' Schifrin told The Associated Press at the time. 'But the real answer is that there's something magic about it. ... There's something magic in the art of music anyway.' He's survived by his sons, Ryan and William, daughter, Frances, and wife, Donna.
