Mary Berry is a bona fide small-screen fashion powerhouse. During last season's Great British Bake Off, the 78-year-old wore a floral bomber jacket from Zara that caused an immediate frenzy and subsequently sold out. She followed up that cheeky sartorial move with a floral blazer from Whistles.

This season, she can confidently claim that the recipe of high-street bright plus denim is her signature style – as demonstrated on Tuesday night's show, which featured Berry in a fluoro yellow tailored jacket from Ted Baker. Various members of the fashion industry immediately tweeted their approval. Her brights should be read as a silent dog whistle to those who appreciate her cult style status. Plus, the yellow makes her eyes look amazing.
