Strictly Come Dancing is back and just as fabulous as ever. Every week, we always look forward to seeing what hostess with the mostess Tess Daly wears – and her Saturday evening attire didn't disappoint.

The 54-year-old presenter looked amazing in a black bodycon dress as she joined forces with Claudia Winkleman to welcome this year's crop of famous faces onto the dancefloor. Dazzling BBC viewers in her statement look, Tess' showstopping style featured a one-shoulder neckline and see-through mesh panels along the sides.

As for her hair the mum-of-two sported a bouncy blowdry that framed her face beautifully. Exuding radiance, Tess' makeup was comprised of a brown glittery eye, honey-hued blush and a high-shine nude lip gloss. 

Posting a photo of her latest look on Instagram, Tess captioned it: "Week 4 @bbcstrictly, here we go!"

Sparking a major reaction, fans were quick to compliment the star's outfit. "Utterly stunning. Dress, shoes, hair. Beautiful lady," wrote one. "So gorge!" added another. Meanwhile, Strictly star Nikita Kanda commented: "Stunning." 

We wouldn't expect anything less than perfection from Tess and her trusty stylist James Yardley. The duo, who have worked together for years, always come up with the perfect look for Saturday night TV.

So far, Tess has definitely upped the glamour by putting on a number of stunning sartorial displays. Last weekend, she lit up our screens for movie week in a pink satin dress with a thigh-high split and subtle draping on the skirt.

Tess' blonde bombshell locks were styled in bouncy waves with a sweeping side parting and she accessorised with chunky gold hoop earrings.

And Week One saw Tess dazzle in a black jumpsuit with gold thread detailing and a cut-out at the bust, perfectly coordinating with her partner in crime Claudia, who was also clad in a shimmering, bejewelled one-piece.

Tess is a proud mum to children Phoebe, 18, and Amber, 14, and she revealed they always watch their mum every weekend. The star previously told The Daily Express: "They have been brought up on Strictly. They have been dancing to the Strictly theme since they were in the womb!"
