Tess can really rock red

Tess has presenter has previously told HELLO! how in awe she is of the fantastic Strictly Come Dancing wardrobe department. She said: "The dancers have all sorts of incredible, invisible body suits sewed in underneath those costumes that you don't see - and they are there to hold everything in place. For example, men's shirts have like a bodice sewn into them that fastens underneath like body. It's almost like a Spanx leotard underneath the shirt, that keeps the shirt in place."

Gushing enthusiastically, Tess revealed some major insights into the men's fashion, too. "For example, if a guy on the show does the rumba, you have to think about the amount of activity he's doing - it's so very energetic," she said.

"Also, there's routines on the floor so they are sewn in. There's a lot going on underneath the costume that you don't see on top, to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions because obviously there's a lot of movement going on. There's like a scaffolding going on underneath that we don't see!"
