Blake Lively, seen in the photo, is the actress who plays Serena van der Woodsen, the beautiful protagonist, on the CW's salacious hit series, Gossip Girl. She is posing for a Vanity Fair shoot with a heavily jewel-encrusted, ultra luxurious, 33 lb yellow Christian Dior gown.
The haute couture satin creation, which was carefully hand stitched, is bejeweled with thousands of dazzling Swarovski crystals, which added to the heavy gown's regal look... and did I mention that the extravagant dress weighs 33 lbs?
