Strictly fans worry that Motsi Mabuse is going to fall out of her risqué dress

Her sparkly dress was certainly eye-catching

Strictly fans were left divided over Motsi Mabuse’s dress on last night’s show.

It was another enthralling instalment of the BBC dance show, with delightful dances, outstanding outfits and even a VR elephant on display.

However, some viewers were more fascinated by the dress that Motsi was rocking as she took her place on the panel.

What did Motsi wear on Strictly?

The judge, 39, isn’t shy when it comes to wearing flamboyant costumes.

But she excelled herself with last night’s choice – a figure-hugging and very sparkly number designed by Roland Mouret.

And, although she looked stunning, some viewers couldn’t quite get their head around her get-up, with a few being less than complimentary.

One viewer tweeted: “This week Motsi Mabuse is wearing a Quality Street wrapper… how sweet!”

Another referenced a jagged piece of material around the neck of the dress and said: “Motsi best not sneeze, she’ll poke her eye out.”

I’m distracted by whether Motsi’s dress will keep her right boob safely contained!

Others feared Motsi might fall out of her dress!

I’m a bit worried all of Motsi is going to stay in that dress!” said one.

Now I’m distracted by whether Motsi’s dress will keep her right boob safely contained!” exclaimed another.

‘Love your dress and eye make-up’

However, some thought that Motsi looked the bee’s knees, and told her so on social media.

One tweeted her to say: “You look absolutely amazing tonight. Your dress is so gorgeous and your make-up is fab.”

And another gushed: “Love love love your dress and eye make-up up this evening!”

Anyway, back to that elephant… the surprise visitor appeared during last night’s performance by comedian Bill Bailey and his partner Oti Mabuse.

It wasn’t a real elephant, of course – the animal was super-imposed onto the dancefloor using clever special effects.

However, it seemed to go down well with most fans, with many people commenting on Twitter.

One wrote: “I think the elephant on Strictly tonight was the best star of the show.”

Another said: “Catching up on #Strictly to cheer me up. The elephant in the room was so unnecessary but also so brilliant at the same time. Loving the CGI!!”
