Holly Willoughby exudes glamour in figure-hugging lilac gown and diamond necklace as she gets ready for the NTAs
Holly Willoughby looked radiant as ever as she shared a look at her outfit for the National Television Awards on Tuesday.
The TV presenter, 42, was a glamorous figure in a sleeveless lavender dress by Suzanne Neville that emphasized her incredible figure.
The garment had a flowing train, while Holly was adorned with a striking silver chain.
The This Morning host gave her overall look an old Hollywood feel as she sported her vintage-style blonde locks.
Holly shared a photo of her outfit on Instagram and wished this year’s nominees a good prep for the show.

She wrote, “NTAs… let’s go! To everyone nominated tonight: enjoy every moment…”
This year’s National Television Awards will take place at London’s O2 Arena for its 28th annual ceremony.
In the wake of the Phillip Schofield scandal, the NTAs will see Holly put on a united front with her co-stars Alison Hammond, who is up for a Best Presenter nomination.
This year, Holly would be determined to headline ITV’s This Morning and defend the title of best daytime show – despite Holly being booed at the event last year.
The ITV morning program has had its own winning streak in the daytime category in recent years.
It comes after she returned to the program with Alison on Monday after an eight-week summer break, to mediocre reviews.
Earlier this year, the show was thrown into turmoil when its long-running co-host and ‘BFF’ Schofield resigned after admitting to having an ‘ill-advised but not illegal’ affair with a younger male colleague.
The pair faced booing from the crown at last year’s NTAs following the scandal in which they appeared to skip the line to see the Queen laid out in state.

Naughty! Before their partnership came to an end earlier this year, Holly and Phillip left viewers hysterical in 2016 when they showed up to host This Morning after an overnight NTA.
While Holly wasn’t nominated for an award this year, that didn’t stop her from rallying behind Alison.
She took to Instagram and wrote, “Being lucky enough to have time this summer break to focus on the kids it’s now lovely to be back on the couch and joy was certainly aplenty today with Alison Hammond !
This wonderful lady has been nominated in the category ‘Best Presenter’ during the NTAs tomorrow night and you can still vote for her.
‘So, (if) you’ve ever been filled with joy by The Hammond…and let’s face it, who isn’t?!…then you know what to do, click here to vote!’
She added, “This week’s lunar phase is the Third Quarter Moon. It’s known as a great time to let go of negativity and any old habits that may be holding you back, which sounds very fitting for the new beginnings that come with September’s arrival.
“Let’s do everything we can to shake off everything that holds us back and move on with light, love and positivity.”
Holly and Phillip have been known to come to the morning show still clad in their NTA dress right after a night of drinking – which is certain there won’t be a repeat this year.
This Morning competes against Loose Women, The Chase and The Repair Shop to win the Day Time prize.
Millions voted for their favorite shows, TV moments and hosts ahead of the big day, which host Joel Dommett will reveal.
Faithful soaps, Coronation Street, EastEnders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks are in the running for the Serial Drama award.
Meanwhile, Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly are in the running to win the Best TV Presenter award for the 22nd year in a row.
The fan favorite duo is the bookies favorite to take the prize and continue their record streak for another year.
Bookmakers have put Ant and Dec 1/4 to win, with next in line Alison at 5/1, then Bradley Walsh at 6/1, with Martin Lewis and Claudia Winkleman both at odds of 10/1.
While the pair made history with their win, they faced backlash from viewers last year after winning the National Television Award for Best Presenter for the 21st year in a row.
The Geordie duo were both unable to attend last year after contracting with Covid, with Stephen Mulhern accepting the gong on their behalf.
The late Paul O’Grady could be honored with his ITVX show, Paul’s For The Love Of Dogs being listed in the factual entertainment category following the TV presenter and comedian’s passing earlier this year.
It will compete against Clarkson’s Farm, Sort Your Life Out and The Martin Lewis Money Show Live.
Two shows hosted by Ant and Dec are in the running for the Bruce Forsyth entertainment award: I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! and Saturday night takeaway.
The duo have announced they will be taking a break from the final show after its 20th series in 2024.
