Holly Willoughby was missed by her This Morning fans on Tuesday morning as ITV screened the World Cup – but the star delighted fans by sharing a preview of her party dress for a special upcoming event.

The glamorous 41-year-old took to Instagram bright and early to share a snap of herself wearing the prettiest Saloni dress ahead of filming a Christmas surprise. Holly was beaming as she posed in her little black velvet dress which featured fun puffed sleeves and handy pockets. The fit and flare style of the frock was so flattering but the details were divine – delicate sheer ivory lace accented with velvet ribbons.

Holly's ITV glam squad, Danielle Whiteman and Patsy O'Neill, elevated the party look by styling the presenter with pointed high heeled Mary Jane shoes and an immaculately applied flick of eyeliner.

The star captioned her Instagram post: "Good morning… @thismorning is not on your screens today but we are filming some festive fun for a later show! #hwstyle dress @saloniofficial rented from @hurr."

Holly's special festive preview delighted fans

Holly's Saloni dress comes with serious royal credentials, as this summer, Princess Beatrice wore the most gorgeous polka dot Saloni dress to Royal Ascot, and as far back as 2016, Princess Kate has been stepping out in the brand - who could forget her wearing that full-length Mary Illusion Dot Dress for a function at Kensington Palace with Prince William?

As soon as Holly shared her look, her eight million strong Instagram fanbase flocked to the comments: "Wow, love this dress!" gushed one fan, while others were delighted to see Holly pop up on what they had believed was her day off: "This is a pleasant surprise! Hope you have fun and frolics aplenty."

Fans were all about the dress though, so many compliments flooded in about how "stunning" and "perfect" the dress was.
