Whether you’re an avid viewer of This Morning or not, Holly Willoughby’s style attracts as much attention as the show itself. 

Proving her sartorial flair time after time, we’ve most recently seen the presenter step out in a chic summer dress from sustainable workwear brand Dai (£275, Daiwear.com) as well as a floral shirt (£49, Whistles.com) and culottes (£12.99, Zara.com) from the high street.

From an on-trend Rixo gingham midi dress (£295, Rixo.co.uk) to a bright rainbow skirt to celebrate the end of Pride, she never misses the mark when it comes to style.

And today’s show is no exception, with Holly Willoughby stepping out in a very French midi dress from the French fashion label Rouje.

Founded in 2019 by French model and It-girl Jeanne Damas, the brand is heavily inspired by the Forties, Sixties and Eighties, with Damas’s vintage tastes threading through the collections.

Does Holly Willoughby wear her own clothes on This Morning?

Holly Willoughby has a stylist for This Morning who works with her to compile her wardrobe, rather than wearing her own clothes.

Speaking to Red in 2020, she revealed that putting together an outfit “hasn’t always come naturally” – “for a long time, I was pretty clueless,” she admitted – and while her Instagram feed when she’s not working says otherwise, featuring an array of equally stylish ensembles in our books, this is likely why she looks to the expertise on the professionals on screen.

Who is Holly Willoughby’s stylist?

Danielle Whiteman became Holly Willoughby’s regular This Morning stylist towards the end of 2020, replacing Angie Smith – Danielle is a previous assistant of Angie’s, who is now based in Sydney and expecting her first child.

Angie is often credited with having engineered Holly’s transformation to national fashion icon in recent years: “Holly was open to new ideas,” she explained during an interview with You magazine. “The main thing I wanted to do was get her into more colour – so we tried everything on and went from there. I remember her saying, “I’ve had my kids. I just need to change it up.”

How does Holly Willoughby do her hair? 

Holly Willoughby’s hair stylist is Ciler Peksah, who works with her for This Morning and Dancing on Ice, and seems to have well and truly mastered the ultimate wavy blonde bob. Previous products Ciler has said she’s used on the presenter’s hair for that signature swish include Batiste dry shampoo, T3 curling tongs and Aveda’s damage remedy daily hair repair (£26, Lookfantastic).

Holly is also a Garnier Nutrisse ambassador, and during lockdown shared a clip of herself dying her own hair using the ”natural baby blonde” shade from the range, if you want to achieve the same shade.

Where is Holly Willoughby from?

Holly Willoughby is originally from Brighton, East Sussex, and attended Burgess Hill Girls school. She now lives in south west London with her husband Dan Baldwin and their three children, Belle, Harry and Chester.
