This is Maya Jama’s world and we are just living in it. The Love Island host returned to our screens with a bombshell appearance on Wednesday evening, and her wardrobe did not disappoint.

 The 28-year-old concocted a statement look courtesy of Balmain. She wore a cobalt blue ankle-length dress featuring striking knotted detailing and a one-shoulder silhouette. The garment coined the ‘Ays Knit Dress,’ currently retails online for £3,895 and further boasts a zipped back and a figure-cinching design.

Maya completed her uber-luxe look by wearing her raven locks down loose and showcasing a radiant beauty blend. A flawless complexion, a glaze of highlighter, a bronzed eyeshadow palette and a sultry eyeliner flick highlighted her natural features. A white manicure and a string of bangles topped off her feline aesthetic.

 Upon seeing the dazzling Instagram image, Maya’s fans flocked together to share their thoughts. “The GLOW,” one wrote, while another said: “Bond girl.” A third commented: “Oh wow, you look incredible and a fourth agreed, noting: “You are out of the world gorgeous, like it’s almost not fair.”
