Zara McDermott says Strictly team go to extreme lengths to prevent wardrobe malfunctions

Strictly Come Dancing is known for their skimpy outfits which are often bedazzled with diamantes and glitter, wowing viewers almost as much as their show-stopping routines.

It’s fair to say pro dancers and celebs alike, the show has suffered their fair share of wardrobe blunders where their racy costumes put too much skin on display. But former Love Island star Zara McDermott is keen to ensure she doesn’t suffer the same fate and accidentally flash too much skin to the nation on live TV.

Thankfully the costume department are doing whatever it takes to make sure nothing is exposed in her skimpy Strictly outfits. “I was stitched into my outfit last weekend,” she revealed. “They were doing it until about three seconds before I went out. They stitch you right in.

“When it comes to the outfits, if you feel like something is too much or too little then you just communicate that and they listen. The wardrobe team are fantastic.” The documentary maker recently opened up to Daily Star about her gruelling training schedule with her pro dancer Graziano Di Prima.

While attending the Pride of Britain with her boyfriend Sam Thompson and her Italian dancer, the blonde bombshell gave fans a glimpse inside her gruelling training regime. She explained: “We did 11 hours last week, 8am-7pm and we didn’t really stop. Sam does his radio show every evening so when I come home from training, he’s at work so I rehearse on my own or use one of the cats.

Her wardrobe blunder concerns come after former contestant Jayde Adams hit back at trolls last week over her incredibly painful wardrobe malfunction. The comedian, 38, was paired with pro-dancer Karen Hauer on the star-studded show last year, and became the fourth contestant to be eliminated.

Loyal fans of the ballroom competition will remember the blonde bombshell’s iconic dance routine inspired by the hit film Flashdance. Sharing a clip of her performing the routine again solo at one of her gigs on New Year’s 2022 as she hit back at trolls online.

She wrote: “I need to clear something up that’s irked me off for a year, the video of me doing Flashdance on Strictly there’s a bit where it looks like I can’t get up off the floor / lift my leg – but I can! What you need to know is, I was wearing a flexible corset that was way too small for me (the proof is here , from NYE 2022).

“But the costume ladies wanted the outfit to look a certain way, so I wore it. I shouldn’t have worn it, I didn’t need to. Comfort over everything always.”

The actress went on to share her awkward wardrobe blunder which got caught on her underwear which left her in tears. Jayde continued: “Full disclosure: until about 40 mins before we danced – there was this elastic bit as well that went between my legs on my m**ge to hold the corset down, and I had to be cut out of it as it had started twisting, taking hold of my vulva lips and pubes.

“I cried. There are witnesses. I know, I shouldn’t have to explain myself, but a lot of the intense trolling I had was about that moment which has been very annoying for me because I know I can do them normally, I was restricted.

“That leg lift is my signature move, it’s why we put it in! Anyways, I just need you lot to know this, and that’s all I have to say about that.”
