Holly Willoughby isn’t just known for her presenting skills, she also shares her chic outfits with her 6.1 million loyal followers on Instagram every day. But her impeccable style goes beyond her wearable looks on This Morning as she’s attracted an audience who eagerly await her Dancing On Ice evening gowns.
Her stylist, Angie Smith, focuses on dressing her in clothes that highlight her amazing hourglass figure. Together they are a power duo who have created looks that embrace colour, texture and the female form. Sassi has designed a few gowns for Holly to wear on ITV’s Dancing On Ice over the last few years, a show that expects glamour and drama. Creating effortlessly elegant gowns that are immaculately cut are Sassi’s speciality, therefore making Holly the perfect client. Here are Sassi Holford’s designs for Holly Willoughby:
1. Fairytale dreams
February 2020
For Holly’s favourite week on Dancing On Ice, Sassi created a majestic frothy tulle ball gown scattered with pretty embellishments. The full skirt looked flawless from all angles, which is an essential design consideration; especially when the presenter is standing up and moving around for the duration of the show.
See Holly’s Instagram post of the dress.
The Petula is available to order as a wedding dress from our London Wedding Boutique.
2. Lady in red
January 2019
Shanghai is a bold dress, designed to make a statement. The square neckline, figure-hugging cut and deep scarlet colour attract plenty of attention, perfect for presenting a dramatic TV series in. Holly styled this red column dress with a pair of Sophia Webster shoes and sparkly Berganza earings. Her hair and makeup had a 1920s vibe, with a striking red lip and a sleek up-do, bar one curl that dropped around her face.
3. White Queen
January 2018
All eyes were on Holly when she wore this dazzling white Grecian gown on Dancing On Ice back in 2018. This dress is a testament to Sassi’s careful attention to fabric, cut and detail, and her flawlessly flattering result. This minimalist one-sleeve gown was cut from white crepe that sculpted Holly’s enviable figure. It’s slit at the front so it showed off a little leg and her Gina shoes with every step.
