Blake Lively stunned on the black carpet at the L'Oréal Paris Ninth Annual Women of Worth Celebration on Tuesday.
The 27-year-old actress wore a floor-length, curve-hugging black gown that accentuated her growing baby bump. The dress was backless except for a simple cross strap, and Lively accessorized with sparkling earrings and bangle bracelets.
Lively was made a spokesmodel for L'Oréal Paris in October 2013. Julianne Moore, Eva Longoria and Diane Keaton also represent the brand, and were in attendance at the event. The celebration honors women from across the country who have made a difference in their communities.

"If I could pass along anything that my mother or my sisters taught me, I feel like my kids would be very well off," she told reporters. "I am fortunate enough to come across people like that and anything I learn from them -- to be able to expose my children and instill any sort of values or motivation in them. That's exciting."
Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds have been together since 2011, and married in September 2012. The couple announced they are expecting in October, and have said they don't want to know the sex of the baby. The actress is scheduled for The Age of Adaline in 2015, while Reynolds will next appear in The Captive.
