Did the BBC cover up Daisy Lowe's cleavage? Mystery over the model's disappearing chest in Strictly publicity shots

  • Curvy model, 27, went braless in racy red dress  at red carpet launch 
  • Today official shots of contestants released ahead of Saturday live launch
  • Daisy's dress fabric appears darker and a lot less sheer in new shot 

She's never been shy about showing off her curves, but it seems that not everyone is happy to see Daisy Lowe flashing the flesh. 

The model, 27, and Strictly contestant wowed at the red carpet launch of this year's show earlier in the week, going braless in a racy fishnet  dress with a sheer panel that showed off her cleavage. 

However, in the publicity shots for the BBC1 show, the model  appeared to be more covered up, leading to questions as to whether the image had been digitally altered.

A series of official shots of the 15 contestants were released today ahead of the live launch on Saturday evening.  

In Daisy's picture, the dress fabric appears darker and a lot less sheer, affording the model a little more coverage around the bust.

Daisy, who was starred in campaigns for DKNY, Marc Jacobs and Pringle admitted that she already has her eyes on the coveted glitterball trophy. 

'It wouldn't be a competition if I didn't want to win!' she said.

'I've got to try and accept that things might take time to learn and not to get too frustrated.

'And not talk back to the judges when they critique me because I would have put my heart and soul into it and I really don't want my Camden roots to shame me!'

However, she previously admitted that she was suffering from pre-show nerves and despite being used to the spotlight, she's somewhat out of her comfort zone.

'I'm so excited! And terrified... I love dancing so much...' she said. 

'But I've never done any ballroom dancing before this... I've always loved the show and I can't wait to be part of it.'

The beauty, who is the daughter of rocker Gavin Rossdale and model Pearl Lowe, added: 'I am used to being on the catwalk and campaigns of major fashion brands with lots of eyes on me. 

'But this is completely different from anything I have ever done before.'

The model joins actors Tameka Epsom, Lesley Joseph and Danny Mac alongside TV presenters Louise Redknapp, Melvin Odom, Laura Whitmore, Ore Oduba, Naga Munchetty and Robert Rinder. 

Also in the line up are singers Anastacia and Will Young, athletes Greg Rutherford and Claudia Fragapane and politican Ed Balls.
