I’m always sad about the things we missed with dair on gg, specifically her dressing up for him (aside from her one failed attempt) and how different it would’ve functioned in their relationship. like role play and dress up between her and ch*ck never felt sexy to me (because ch*ck is an ugly troll who nauseates me) but rather a way, in addition to many others, that blair used to keep ch*ck happy. And they mostly felt like a display or tableau for him to enjoy (🤢).
On the other hand, and I’ve said this before, blair’s desire to dress up for dan did and would’ve continued to feel joyous and an acknowledgement of her own desire as well as her partner’s.
*in general I get angsty when I think of all of blair’s great styling choices that were wasted on ch*ck.
yeah i know what you mean and i think if they’d been given more time we might’ve gotten that but the writers were never invested in them being endgame so we missed out on a lot :/ but honestly i love the little bit we got with blair revealing herself in the getup in 5x18 like it’s such a contrast from her and chuck because it doesn’t feel like she’s For his consumption. (another reason the short lived blair/carter thing was fun it was nice to see a rich, manipulative guy be blair’s plaything pretty much just for her fun.)
it really does feel like things she does to keep him interested but also i can’t remember at all a single time she dresses up for him that he actually responds… like he either doesn’t show up or he brushes her off or holds out on her or something it’s so one sided but she keeps doing it again and again it’s so sad.
and it does always feel like she’s something for him to enjoy/consume/posses. she’s positioned as another one of the beautiful, expensive things that he owns, that belong to him, that he controls, just like his hotel, his company. she’s not even interchangeable with them to him though, she’s actually less important. she’s not even his favourite, his prized possession. it doesn’t just go for lingerie she wears either but any look. and i think what ultimately makes it worse is that it’s what the writers intended. any time a scene is about blair they view it as somehow actually being about chuck, even when it doesn’t make sense to.
like, that dress i pointed out, which is gorgeous (i went on a hunt for it last time i did a full rewatch) and she looks insanely hot in it, is still interesting when viewed characteristically because it’s a lot less modest than what she usually wears. while it’s a proper dress it’s actually closer in style to the slips she strips down to in 1x07 and 4x09. blair’s style is for the most part always modest/posh/classically romantic. the most she reveals is usually a low back. so i think it’s telling that she chooses to wear that style when she’s set up a dinner for him. those two moments, when she drops her dress and walks off in just a slip, are meant to show the “real” and “true” blair that only chuck can bring out which just. makes me so angry lol. what an incredibly reductive way to view female sexuality.
but again, even the little bit we got shows how comfortable blair was with dan and how she knew he would appreciate it. she reveals this look similarly to how she reveals the prior slips: taking off the modest cover up to reveal something sexy underneath. but this time it’s with someone who respects her, respects her body, and loves every part of her—not just the “bad girl”, “dark” blair. it’s almost like…it was a satisfying end to her arc.
literally so many incredible styling choices that could’ve plainly been gorgeous but are in a 🪑 storyline so they have to have the contextual layer of all that grossness :)))) say it with me: and! for! what!

I’m still obsessed with the HBOMax Gossip Girl Thanksgiving episode. Like it was OG quality, rivaling the original’s Thanksgiving episode. Everyone ending up at Zoya’s, especially since I don’t know how many of them she would consider her friend but that makes it better. Particularly Max, who I don’t know if she and he ever really had a conversation at this point but his dad and bio mom arriving separately was hilarious.
There were a lot of little moments like when Audrey was avoiding Aki she grabbed Zoya saying “show me a picture of your grandmother” had me rolling.
Speaking of Aki, he felt like more of a full character and like the actor is getting better. He is becoming the himbo he is meant to be. I love when Zoya walked away after finding out he isn’t busy saying “thanks for the invite.” I also love his mom trying to be the best ally she can be. Including when Aki announced in front of everyone including his mom and Audrey’s mom that they were going to fuck Max again. She was so supportive of his threesome, she will definitely be marching in pride wearing all rainbows for her son. (Idc about Obie being mildly homophobic, idc about Obie).
And Audrey’s mom being so chill about it and even teasing Audrey, I love it! Though I was really worried at the end we were going to find out she like walked off the Brooklyn Bridge. Like given her depression, her attempt earlier in the season, and how giddy she was, sometimes when people before deciding to end their life get a high almost. Like where they know all the problems will be gone soon so they feel like Superman.
The David/Nick bomb about David keeping Nick from the delivery room & from seeing the girls mom one last time was not something I ever expected. Like that was really heavy. Julien was rightfully horrified. And it was so somber.
Then Lucy Punch breaks the silence with her news, saying it with the same gravity that the dads did. I love her so much, can we just put Lucy Punch in everything? Please? More of the whole Wolfe clan!
I feel so bad for Beck, but oh my god is that really the time or place? Also the way she keeps calling Julien, Julie is so grating, and I know it’s on purpose.
And then Aki interrupting the engagement news with asking about his dads voice mail. Then Zoya realizing Julian and Obie slept together.
Like omg it was just BAM BAM BAM BAM! They didn’t miss a beat!
Then the Rafa phone call, like yea he did the right thing in the end with quitting and realizing he was wrong but ugh.
Zoya telling Julien that they aren’t friends or sisters or enemies was A+++ acting, it was chilling.
Then Beck drunkenly dropping a bomb on Gossip Girl herself, perfect way to tie up the ending.
