While attending the Cotillion Society Ball, Serena doubts her grandmother and Dan’s thoughts, amid much drama, forcing her to feel neglected while performing her speech.

With the constant arguing and fighting between Serena and Blair, we can all remember that chaotic scene at the Yale Dean’s private reception party.

With Blair’s straight hair, she is in a dark forest green, puff-sleeved dress, with a satin ribbon placed sung on her head. Serena wears jet black stilettos and a brown, white and black knee-length dress. Interestingly enough, the wrap look resembles similar trends seen in today’s society.

S2:E19 The Grandfather
Blair looks absolutely stunning in her elegant black and white bodice with lavish gold jewelry finishes. I’m all here for the layered necklace look that complements the simple details found in the bead and sequin cardigan. Her voluminous half-up half-down hairstyle and red lip really add extra attention to tie the look together. After brutally confronting Yale and other college rejections, in this episode she shows her courage and personality while announcing her “new self”.
Serena and Blair’s Flapper Moment
S3:E7 How to Succeed in the Bass
With the opening of Chuck Bass’ club at the Empire Hotel, a celebration is thrown to celebrate; with the obvious theme of the 20s decade. While taking different retro approaches, both Serena and Blair give off major representation of the flapper. Since it’s “Hallows Eve,” Serena dresses in her silver sequin dress with a deep V-neck, opalescent gloves, long dangling earrings, and a matching barrette. For B., she shows off a frilly dress, with dangling stones that give off a holographic glow! The overall color scheme emphasizes Blair’s black accessories, making everything stand out!

Kicking off the season in Paris, Serena and Blair are looking for love in these awesome looks! While continuing her shopping routine, Blair wears a sheer multi-layered dress with floral accents and a jeweled belt to match her beaded choker. To the side is a burnt orange arm bag with her smoky eye and nude lip gloss. However, Serena went for the casual and artsy vibe with pink bootleg pants, a baggy tank top, a rattlesnake belt, an ecru hat and a silver bag. You can’t forget that this episode took place when Blair met Louis, who, by the way, is Monegasque royalty!
Blair’s Red Textured Dress
S4:E2 Dual Identity
Still in Paris, when “Henry”, also known as Chuck was far from his true identity, this moment got everyone’s adrenaline pumping. After being filmed in Prague, this groundbreaking plot marked the first time Blair and Chuck saw each other again. In Oscar de la Renta’s ascending scarlet gown, Blair looks stunning with her burgundy clutch in hand and bold makeup. Confessing their feelings with powerful words, it felt like true love when their eyes met. In this scene, Chuck says, “I destroyed the only thing I ever loved… The world would be easier if I didn’t come back.” and from there, Blair responds, “I don’t love you anymore.” But it takes more than you to destroy Blair Waldorf… It’s true. But it wouldn’t be my world without you.
Serena’s long black dress and white fur
S4:E18 The Children Stay in the Picture
During this episode, Carol and Charlie Rhodes arrive, Chuck realizes that Blair and Dan shared a “meaningless” kiss, problems with William Van Der Woodsen and Thorpe arise, and Lily suffers the consequences of her past coming to light. . In the photo, Serena showcases a flawless, wavy side part as she opts for a layered black maxi dress with sparkling gemstones to frame the strapless neckline. Along with this, the glamorous fur scarf draped over her arms and dangling earrings complete the style of her family portrait.
Serena and Blair’s Hot Cuts
S4: E5 Goodbye, Colombia
I don’t know about you, except I can’t get enough of those matching sets and outfits worn on B. and S.! Walking around Columbia University, I love how it turned out! To keep things clean, Blair wears a detailed top with a plunging neckline and fiery-toned skirt. Her Hamilton House key is delicately wrapped around her neck, while a mustard-coloured handbag hangs from her wrist. As for Serena, she has a buttoned city tank top and matte black shorts to contrast with her royal blue satchel and gold jewelry.
Blair’s wedding dress
S6: E10 New York, I love you
In the series finale, let’s all agree that Blair looked like a beautiful bride when she wore this charming lace wedding dress. After Chuck and Blair were correlated with the “death” of Bart Bass, near the end of the episode, they finally said “yes” after years of constant ups and downs. Although this is her second registered marriage, Blair really showed her personality with this non-traditional route, as she lived her fairy tale ending. The eyelets and textured accents of this shimmering blue dress from Elie Saab complement her silver headband and large blue hoop earrings worn in Central Park. I don’t want to spoil too much, but this episode also signifies the moment when one and only gossip girl is revealed, and Serena and Dan get married!
