It was really lovely to see Camilla on ITT this evening. She has always been a fabulous dancer but what her 'best bits' showed was how much the costumes have deteriorated over the years.
Camillas ballroom dresses particularly were superb and the gentlemen almost always wore tail suits .... big sigh ....

She was like a breath of fresh air. It is nice to see other PROs doing this slot
Yes, those were the days. I can't make my mind up as to whether they want to appeal to younger people when designing the costumes or whether its just down to cost. You can't can't beat a full length ballroom dress with a well fitting set of tails.
Much better than Hardy who I just find very irritating.
Enjoyed her Strictly highlights, nostalgia!
Ah! But those were the days when the BBC were throwing money at the show as they were chasing X-Factor's ratings level.
Now they've surpassed them, the "bean counters" will be looking for ways to save money.
That's why "second series" of dramas sometimes seem not as good, as the same thing happens there.
When you get to the "umpteenth series".........
She was actually quite a good judge on a SCD tour I saw too. Tom was hopeless but she was good.
I definitely think she's a contender for Len's replacement if she's back here permanently.
Last I heard she had just "qualified" as a life coach and had set up a practice in LA as living out there whilst husband ( sorry can't remember his name, ex Hollyoaks actor) was trying to crack Hollywood
I know exactly what you mean. The intro they've extended of Karen this year leaves me wanting to put my foot through the TV. She's so loud and OTT.
She and Ian Waite are doing a tour in the new year. Camilla and her husband have both relocated here for a few months.
Interesting and informative comments and lovely to have someone speaking in a normal tone of voice. What a refreshing change from the shrieking, gurning KH. I do wish they would keep inviting different Pros to do CC - I also enjoyed Neil and Chloe last week.
Oh so do I. I used to like her but she is so full of herself now. Here's hoping she doesn't replace Len, I would even rather have Anton than Karen.
Agree that cost is an implication but also think 'class' isn't necessarily a matter of £'ssss. I too thought how much nicer the frocks were back then. Compared to the dress Lesley wore last weekend they were designer dresses to Lesley's Primark effort.
I'd suggest they've fewer people in wardrobe now, so it's time constraints that dictate much of what is fabricated.
The technical term, "It'll do," springs to mind.
Thanks
