Although Claudia usually stuns with her chic style, tonight she opted for an extremely…eye-catching number.
Claudia sported an oversized poncho style gown with fringe trim and gaudy gold embellishment. Viewers consequently flocked to social media to share their thoughts…
One penned: “Is Claudia dressed as the magic carpet this week?”
“Claudia has come as the Blackpool illuminations,” said another.
A third chimed in: “I love Claudia and love that she is comfortable in the clothes she wears BUT…that’s some fancy poncho, isn’t it?”

“I like Claudia but what is she wearing,” questioned a fourth.
Another added: “Claudia, I have no words,” followed by a snap of Aladdin’s magic carpet.

Claudia even joked that she looked like the sun and that her son claimed she looked like a magic carpet!
Regardless, we think she rocked it!
Other eagle-eyed viewers also noticed that Claudia and Tess finally nailed a proper sashay onto the Strictly dance floor, followed by their iconic hip bump.
One said: “FINALLY!! Tess and Claudia did the bump thingy at the start of the show! It’s what the people have missed all season.”
“Yes we finally got a proper Tess and Claudia walk on,” said another and a third added: “Tess and Claudia finally get an intro in Blackpool.”
