Blake Lively is letting everyone know that it takes a village when it comes to stealing the style show at the Met Gala.

The Age of Adaline actress, 34, was a standout at the fashionable event in New York City on Monday in a reversible dusty copper and oxidized green Atelier Versace gown, and is now acknowledging all the people on her "dream glam team" who helped make it a reality.

On Wednesday, Lively uploaded a selfie from when she was prepping for the event to her Instagram, showing makeup artist Kristofer Buckle and hairstylist Jennifer Yepez hovering around her to put finishing touches on her beautiful look for the night.

"I love you three. And thank you @charlottetilbury for the gorgeous makeup. There's a reason everything you create is the best— because it radiates just like you. Dream Glam Crew all around ✨"

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants alum also shared a photo of herself "practicing" the big reveal of the reversible train of her gown on a staircase, when her dress went from a copper tone with a large bow at the hip to an oxidized green gown with even longer train.

Lively was surrounded by staff for that moment too, with onlookers holding court at the bottom of the staircase.

At the end of her Stories, Lively shared sumptuous close up videos of the incredible Atelier Versace gown, which featured a pattern from the constellations found on the ceiling of Grand Central Station.

The theme of the annual event was Gilded Glamour this year, to coincide with part two of the Met's fashion exhibition In America: An Anthology of Fashion, on view until September 5.
