Strictly Come Dancing fans are used to seeing host Tess Daly in simple, classic couture gowns.

But in recent weeks, the TV presenter has been stepping up the style with a series of high-fashion ensembles.

And tonight, she became the latest celebrity to fall for Stella McCartney's hugely successful collection of polka dot dresses.

After wearing a colourful Emilio Pucci number on Saturday night's show, the 41-year-old stepped up her style game in the risque McCartney creation.

The sheer panels on the side of the risqué dress gave a clear view of the mother-of-two's toned figure.

Daly's dress is the same one worn by American singer Anastasia and Dutch supermodel Doutzen Kroes in recent months.

However, unlike daring Daly, both Anastasia and Kroes wore a nude slip underneath.

Former Victoria's Secret model Kroes wore the ensemble to a Missoni party in September, while One Day In Your Life singer Anastasia wore it to the Pink Ribbon charity ball two weeks ago.

And it is similar to McCartney's 'Lucia' dress worn by Kate Winslet, Livia Firth and Susan Sarandon earlier this year.

American star Liv Tyler has also worn another version of a polka dot dress with a corset panelling and peplum detailing when she attended a McCartney party in New York in May.

Winslet was the first celebrity to be seen wearing one of the polka-dot dresses when she wore the £1,285 Lucia to the New York premiere of Mildred Pierce in March.

Colin Firth's wife Livia wore the same dress at the Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy premiere in London last month.

And then Sarandon also opted for the Lucia at the Somaly Mam Foundation Benefit Gala in New York last Thursday.
