Thigh grazing dresses decorated with beaded fringing would not look out of place on Strictly Come Dancing where the designer competed for the crown himself in 2013.

This season's creations saw the designer unveil ample amounts of flesh on his models who were all brushed with oil so that their bodies glistened. 

The emphasis appeared to be on movement with many of the models adorned with swaying fabrics and embellishment - perfect for dancing.

Whilst Abbey wowed in her daring ensemble, she recently revealed that becoming a mother has made her reevaluate her day wear.

She told MailOnline: 'Now I’ve become a mum of two and am working all the time, my style has changed a little bit and I need to look good in the daytime more so than going out at night.'

She added that she channels her penchant for fashion into her husband Peter Crouch's wardrobe.

'I buy Peter clothes,' she said. 'He’s quite hard to dress being so tall and he finds it hard to get a lot of things that fit him but he suits classic stuff, well cut jeans, nice shirts and good shoes.' 

One of the other stars in attendance was Olympic swimmer Tom Daley, who seemed in awe of Abbey's gorgeous gown. 

Whilst his fiance Dustin Lance Black was not in attendance, he was in great company among the likes of Fearne Cotton.
