Blake Lively jumps over the rope at an exhibit to fix her 2022 Met Gala gown on display at Kensington Palace.

[Blake Lively was so adamant that her 2022 Met Gala gown, currently on display as part of the "Crown to Couture" exhibition at Kensington Palace, looked perfect that she jumped over a rope to modify the display, "People" reports. (1]

Lively took to Instagram stories yesterday to reveal the moment she quickly altered the display by fluffing up the body of the dress." When you're a clown jumping over ropes in a museum to fix an exhibit," Lively captioned her video." Happy Virgo season soon."

Lively, with the help of jewelry designer Lorraine Schwartz, squatted to turn the inside of the dress outward at the center section. Lively wrote that she did so "so that people could see what the transformation was all about."

Lively's gown has been featured in Rizzo's 2022 Met Gala look by Thom Browne, Kendall Jenner's Hepburn-inspired Givenchy gown at the 2021 Met, Lady Gaga's 2020 by Christopher John Rogers' MTV Awards dress, and Beyoncé's outfit from the 2017 Grammy Awards, along with 200 other pieces in the exhibition." People reports that the exhibition "also features a number of historic gowns that illustrate how rock and red carpet fashion has been influenced by 18th-century Georgian royalty.

Versace gowns first appeared as "copper-colored numbers with oversized ribbon and beaded embellishments, which later morphed into blue-green skirts with long, flowing trains," Us Weekly reported.

Lively also took time to admire the crown Schwartz had created to wear with the dress: "This was absolutely surreal," Lively captioned her follow-up post, smiling next to the display cabinet. "Look at this crown we made at Kensington Palace. Every time I put on a gown or borrow a piece of jewelry, I feel like a child playing dress-up. I can't believe that's how it's going to be commemorated.... Wow. Unforgettable."

The exhibit will run through October at Kensington Palace, Princess Diana's former residence.
