Strictly Come Dancing's costume chief has revealed a little known fact about Helen Skelton's jaw-dropping Halloween dress.
With 20 years of Strictly, hundreds of dresses have been worn by contestants over the decades. Top designer Vicky Gill, who has been working on the show since 2012, said it was important to her to not be wasteful.
So instead of getting rid of previously worn pieces, a lot of them are repurposed or recycled - such as the dress worn by Countryfile presenter Helen Skelton last week. The gown was originally created for Karen Hauer when she danced an American Smooth with Greg Wise in 2021.
