BBC Strictly fans ask if Tess Daly is 'wearing wellies' as they're left baffled by her footwear

Glam presenter Tess Daly wowed as she stepped out in another striking outfit on Strictly Come Dancing. The TV star from Stockport looked beautiful in a strapless bubblegum pink midi dress.

The 53-year-old stunned with her blonde tresses worn in bouncy curls and the compliments came pouring in for her vibrant look. As she shared a photo and a video on her Instagram cocomamastyle said with a perfect emoji: "That shade of pink is." And fortyfashionfanatic wanted to know: "Can anyone tell me where the dress is from?"

However other viewers were left baffled as they clocked the footwear choice of slouchy black boots with the figure-hugging dress. @PinkFlip15 asked: "Who made the decision that Tess should wear her wellies?"

@TinkyTink disapproved: "Just Noooooo #Tess them boots." @GhostyGirl84 asked: "What in piggin hell has Tess got on her feet? Is she off wading after this?" And @Phil_cheshire asked: "Is Tess wearing wellies?"

@Anthony131278 said: "Tess the boots are wrong." @sam_bell248 asked: "Why does Tess have boots on with that dress?" and @ruggerlad wanted to know: "What’s Tess’s boots all about?!!!!"

Tess paired her pink dress with black boots (BBC)

@Michaela_jayne1 pointed out: "Tess sweetheart them boots do not go with that dress." @JasonGood said: "Love Tess’s dress but not with black boots." And @meganpsitn tweeted: "Not sure about the dress/boots combo. Maybe Caludia and Tess switched shoes hoping no one would notice." But @JackTheFact29 said: "Tess & Claudia chose really fabulous dresses tonight."

@MickeyMcCartney thought: "I don't think Tess's boots really work with that pink number." @minieggsxjesus echoed: "Tess’ dress is pretty but those boots no no, not a good look." @louisehector asked: "Did Claudia and Tess put on each other's shoes tonight?" And @DaniMcFawns said: "Me and mum are in stitches every time there's a full body shot of Tess Daly, what on god's green earth is she wearing?"

Last month, as Tess took to the stage alongside pal and co-host Claudia Winkleman, she had fans talking as she turned heads in a bold red suit and matching silky shirt. Some fans said the red outfit, which she teamed with gold heels, was her 'best yet'.

But others asked questions as they said the velvet ensemble reminded them of something else. @emmyl_13 tweeted: "Finding out that Tess is secretly Father Christmas has blown my mind." @randomstuffxzxz was also reminded of Christmas, saying: "Omg Tess’s festive outfit."
