Is this the 1st time Ola is "covered up"? - Strictly Come Dancing

winelover · 03-10-2009, 18:25

Dont get me wrong she could wear a binliner and still be gorgeous

Erinfan · 03-10-2009, 18:46

She always wears proper ballroom dresses for ballroom.. A few sections cut out here and there at times, but most of the time they're pretty traditional.

stephanieplum · 03-10-2009, 20:29

I thought her hair was absolutely gorgeous tonight, so intricate!

Like winelover says, she could rock a binliner........Grrrrr

Bhoy1888 · 08-11-2009, 12:49

I think yesterday was the second time she was coverd up

sigh

ESPIONdansant · 08-11-2009, 13:06

I think she looked lovely. Rather than just.....erm, good body, cheap outfit.

soapgirlhere · 08-11-2009, 13:08

Ola looked gorgeous last night, so classy.

PinkyPig · 08-11-2009, 13:12

I thought she looked absolutely gorgeous last night. I know she looks sexy in the cat suit, but she looks sexy and classy in a traditional ball gown.

Idiotgirle · 08-11-2009, 13:18

I've come to the conclusion that the less Ola wears, the worse the dance. She wears a couple of strategically placed sequins and a bit of chiffon to distract from the awfulness of her partner.

Last night, it seemed like Erin was jumping on her bandwagon!

ESPIONdansant · 08-11-2009, 13:19

Ditto about Erin. The rumba sheath last week and the salsa (oh, I forgot my costume) this. Not a good look.

HeidiB · 08-11-2009, 13:25

No, it is not the first time. She has danced ballroom before now!

drbolognaise · 08-11-2009, 13:31

Ola and Lilia always look beautiful in their ballroom because of how petite they are I think. They look like little princesses and I always love their dresses!!!

BuddyBontheNet · 08-11-2009, 13:34

Ola looked beautiful last night in her dress when she danced with Chris, but also in her VW dress for the pro dance. It is really only for certain Latin dances that she does skimpy!

Jan2555*GG* · 08-11-2009, 13:41

She wore a proper ballroom dress for the Tango, Quickstep, American Smooth and Last night she only uncovers for the Latin or it would be very odd.....

Hey hang on a sec - that is very unfair of you to say that about Chris - Chris is a good dancer

She's had her midriff showing in ballroom dresses before. I agree with everyone who say she looks better in ballroom, the skimpy outfits look cheap to me, and Ola tends to wear her skirts sitting on her hips rather than her waist so they look skimpier.

Robert Romarin · 08-11-2009, 15:31

At least when Ola is more modestly dressed, it gives me the opportunity to assess how Chris is actually dancing.

Totally agree, I thought she looked stunning and TBH I prefer her in the ball gown...

LaurieMarlow · 08-11-2009, 15:49

It's always disappointing to tune in and discover Chris is doing ballroom this week so Ola has to wear actual clothes.

Last night he was wonderful, but any latin I've seen has been a bit pants. He also needs to stop counting steps.

Bhoy1888 · 08-11-2009, 16:40

Still think we all want a bit more flesh next week to make the dance more interesting

BuddyBontheNet · 08-11-2009, 16:51

I don't think the amount of fabric in Ola's costume has anything to do with how good a dance or her partner's dancing is either.

She just loves wearing revealing costumes and why not? She has the most fantastic figure and they show off the movement of her body as she dances and add to the enjoyment of the dance.

If you watch DWTS you will know that nearly all, if not all the female pros on that show wear the same kind of costumes that Ola chooses.

Erin looked fabulous last night and so has Kristina since she first joined SCD. The new pros are also more adventurous with their costumes - Katya and her bum comes to mind!

We are just not used to it on SCD, but that could be more to do with the age and body shapes of the pros we've had until now than anything else.

Since going to the show last week and my hubbie seeing Ola close up in her cat suit he has now become almost as big a fan as me! Thanks Ola ! He now watches ITT something he'd never watch before and we now spend Saturday night together again watching SCD rather than him upstairs watching some thing else!!

Lorelei Lee · 09-11-2009, 13:31

It was that lovely rich dark colour that was such a change-up for Ola - she's normally all floaty whites and sugary pinks in the ballroom, which I (as a v. dark brunette) can't abide.

It was a fab dress for a fab dance. Almost a cherry Cola colour
