Bring on the sequins! Susannah Constantine is ready for Strictly

Susannah Constantine’s enviable wardrobe is about to get even better, as the fashion writer and presenter has said yes to sequins, ballgowns and dancing shoes!

As well as getting to grips with dancefloor, she (obviously) can’t wait to get up close with the amazing custom-made Strictly costumes. “I imagine the process to be like witnessing seamstresses in a Paris couture house,” she said. “The costumes are all so beautifully made and I will want to take them all home. To have all those dresses made to measure is a dream come true!”

Fashion is definitely Susannah’s forte, having worked with Giorgio Armani John Galliano before making a name for herself as a style writer, author and TV presenter. In 2001, she teamed up with Trinny Woodall to host hit show What Not To Wear, skyrocketing the duo to stardom and leading to two further shows, Trinny & Susannah Undress and Undress the Nation.

She was also a fashion regular on The Oprah Winfrey Show, as well as co-writing books What Not To Wear and The Body Shape Bible with Woodall, selling a combined 2.5 million-plus copies. Susannah's flair for writing definitely stuck, and she’s since released her own novel After the Snow. But now she’s switching books for the Ballroom, and we can’t wait to see her bust out some moves!

Susannah is the final star shimmying her way into this year’s Strictly, joining Katie Piper, Faye Tozer, Danny John-Jules, Joe Sugg, Vick Hope, Graeme Swann, Dr Ranj Singh, Stacey Dooley, Ashley Roberts, Kate Silverton, Seann Walsh, Lee Ryan, Lauren Steadman and Charles Venn. Good luck everyone!
