My other half has swung both ways in the past if you catch my drift. He is not a Strictly fan (to say the least!) but when Ola's VT started he genuinely was speechless when she was shimmying around in the silver dress.. jaw firmly dropped!

I'm going to be annoyingly pro-Rachel all series I'm afraid. She's no Whitney but her stuff is a tad underrated - and Vincent is one of my fave pros. She is very pretty and they make such a cute couple. I liked the fact she wasn't dressed filthily like Gillian and Jessie.

Gillian looked fabulous for a slightly older woman and Jessie was just crap personified. The hair, the dress, the desperate attempt at sexy. Yuck!

I liked Flavia's dress, and of the celebrities, I thought Jessie's was quite good - flirty and fun, not the stiff and 50s prom-style that didn't really work with the cha-cha IMO.

Worst of the night were Hayley's lime green horror - and I know it's attracted *cough* attention, but poor Ola, what the hell were the costume lot thinking?

Eh? What is all this? I thought they were all given what to wear by the show. Can they bring their own stuff then? Why don't they all do that, rather than put up with some of the horrors they get put in?

another monstrosity from Camilla I'm afraid

Ola's catsuit made her bum look droopy and her legs really short. Mr Lubi, who is generally rather partial to Ola, agrees...

DSI are sponsor of both Erin and Camilla so they provide their dresses. They often aren't originals - at an event i was at the other day there was a young couple dancing and the girl said she wore one of the dresses Camilla wore on SCD before Camilla wore it. All the dancers who are sponsored by them seem to share.

I haven't heard anywhere for definiate though that the pro women's dresses are made by the BBC though they all could have their own dress makers.

Kristina on Saturday and Hayley's group dance dress on Sunday

I liked Ola's catsuit; the fabric was really interesting... it made her look like some kind of irridescent amphibian; it is sort of thing a faerie queen (i.e. Titania from A Midsummer Night's Dream) or a water nymph would wear in a ballet.

Sure, she's t3h h0t, but that means she'll look alluring in anything...

Camilla's wasn't that bad. Maybe all gold would have been better.

I thought Erin looked beautifully elegant. I have to say i'm in the 'oh no' camp for Ola's catsuit. It made her look dumpy which is plainly not the case as she wore a wonderful black number for Bet Midlers song which she looked stunning in.

I thought Ola looked fab - her figure is perfect. I really don't get why people are saying she looked 'chunky'. So what if she's not stick thin?

If Ola is chunky I hate to think what that makes me!

Great to read everyones varying opinions...here's mine.

I am not hugely keen on the catsuit idea because I think it takes away from the tradition of the style of dance, although I though Ola looked amazing and it also worked well with the modern song, etc.

Christina looked devine and I liked Hayleys dress but disliked the colour.

I felt that the female celebrity dresses, with the exception of one or two looked a bit high streety and not particularly for latin dancing?

Erin looked classy. So did the new Russian woman.

Green is very popular on TV. Much more so than ever in real-life. Something technical to do with ....er, something.

Better to have dropped the furry gubbins from Flavia's dress which was basically OK.

Thought Kat (Jessie?) looked OK.

The catsuit was beyond atrocious. Somewhere on the level of complete and utter sh**, tbh.

Tom looked good. They sometimes make the men look ridiculous - but not on this occasion.

What a bunch of fuddie duddies... you must have fits whenever anyone wears a figure hugging outfit (or even nothing at all) during a contemporary dance performance or ballet...

Ola must get so bored with all of the focus on her appearance... "You think I'm attractive? Thank you... I have a question for you... do bears shit in the woods?"

Poor girl can't do anything right; leopard prints can be naff, but this was some pvc reflective/irridescent liquid looking semi-transparent looking leopard skin instead of the thing that you would find in a 70s night club or on Hannah Tutankhamun. I loved it.

Nobody seemed to mind that it was figure hugging, but rather that it was an awful concept. Was it fake snakeskin or what? Had Ola been doing a show dance or similar it would have been ok, but as a first dance outing it was a bit OTT (IMO). As an attention grabber, it certainly worked in her partner's favour.

Her partner definitely needed distracting from... he was very wooden...

An inappropriate choice for the first dance, perhaps; I don't get the omgitshideoustackyreaction though... the material looked really interesting/subtle to me.

I don't mind a bit of figure-hugging. On the contrary!!!

But it wasn't flattering, it wasn't a nice piece of kit in its own right, not very cha-cha. Just plain - not very good.
