    Haven't seen a catwalk in decades @Dovefromabove but I do know vintage styles cos tehy're all over the pattern books these days.   Have their own section.   It could have been in keeping but with a different neckline and not such dull colours.   I don't think Michelle has any bulges left.  She's looking very fit and trim and is amazing.   I'd like to see her in the final.

    I agree with you @AnniD, We were lucky enough to see him,and he did set the bar,with Alfie Bow a close second.

    The trouble was,that dress of Micheles didnt do her any favours when she bent to get his cuppa,also not a good colour,a funny length too.........I really didnt like it,and maybe thats what put the voters off, that and the fact that they are now just voting for Brits,It certainly wasnt the dancing,she was great at that.
    I agree about Saffrons underskirt,having looked a second time,almost like they had a bit of shocking pink net to use up.  I dont think the wardrobe has seemed so extravagant this year either.Perhaps Vicky has been told?😁😁

    @Obelixx. I would like to see her in the final too, I really hope it was just "the dress" this week!😁

  • So glad the right one went home this week.
    I was very surprised to see Michelle in the dance off. I didn't like her dress either, awful colour. But some other of he dresses/outfits have been rather dull.
    I liked Saffrons dress. The dresses this year have been rather dull compared to previous years......and they are definitely more covered up now than in other series 😉
    Had never heard of the singer and agree Alfie Boe sang it beautifully  


  • I loved the way that dress swirled https://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-radio/1202597/Strictly-Come-Dancing-2019-Michelle-Visage-snubbed-arena-tour-BBC-video/amp
    and loved the colour too. 

    I’ve bought a couple of things that strong almost viridian green recently... the shops are full of it ... it doesn’t suit everyone but I think Michelle’s colouring is strong enough to take it. 

    Just explaining my view  ... I’m sure others have different opinions 😊

  • Michelle's dress looks a better colour in that photo Dove, but not keen on the floral neckline. Still looks frumpy, but we can't all like the same 🤗 would be a very dull world 😉

    I half expected the frumpy dress to transform into something a bit sexier,  so that Giovanni would suddenly realise what he was missing !
    I agree with Dove in that it did have a lovely "swirl".
    Apparently they have something really special in store for Blackpool (but l expect all the couples will say that !).

    According to one report I read today Anton was dressed as a solider (their spelling not mine).  He was dressed as neither a solider nor a soldier, he was in RAF uniform.  I'm guessing the person who wrote the report would also not know when either WW1 or WW2 took place.

    It was a good pro dance either way but seemed short to me.

    Re Michelle's dress - love that colour too but by comparison to others on Saturday it was dull and that floral trim made it worse and I'm afraid that does affect votes.   It seems the voters prefer glam.
