Not afraid to take risks in the name of fashion, the then 37-year-old singer slipped her enviably toned frame into a racy Fausto Puglisi mini dress.

9 years earlier, she won the fifth series of the BBC One dancing competition show Strictly Come Dancing. Alesha Dixon and her partner Matthew Cutler were announced as winners on December 22, 2007.

Born on October 7, 1978, in Welwyn Garden City, United Kingdom, she turned 29 on October 7, 2007.

The gladiator-inspired pink satin frock had the fashion house’s signature sun logos and revealing cutouts that showcased plenty of flesh.

It featured a cleavage-baring plunging neckline, a thigh-skimming hem, a sternum cutout, and side cutouts that showed off her tiny waist.

Alesha played up the gladiator vibe of her look by accessorizing with a selection of oversized bangles, statement rings, ear cuffs and a pair of chain-embellished sandals.

She pulled her long locks back into a center-parted ponytail and sported heavy eyeliner, dramatic eyelashes and a slick of plum lipstick.
