Helen Skelton's 'hotter than hot' races outfit at Marks and Spencer as she teases with glimpse of bra

Earlier this week BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Helen Skelton was branded 'hotter than hot' as she sizzled in a bridal white bra and two-piece pearl embellished suit at Chester Races. The blonde Countryfile presenter looked effortlessly glam as she posed for a photo in the all-white ensemble, which was finished off with an embellished black fascinator.

Posting the picture of herself with her bra on display on Instagram, the39-year-old was flooded with compliments @helensgorka said: "You look incredible, the most beaut."

But Helen's 'hotter than hot' bra and matching suit came with a price. The ensemble came courtesy of Nadine Merabi, with an eye-watering price tag of £485. The Nadine Merabi Charlotte White Blazer is £295, and is part of the designer's wedding collection.

The matching Nadine Merabi Charlotte bralette is £120. Finally, the Charlotte White trousers are £190 per pair on the Nadine Marabi website.

Helen's outfit was completed with a fascinator from Alexandra Harper Millinery - where headpieces can cost upwards of £1,000.

If you want to recreate Helen Skelton's Chester races look, but don't fancy paying just shy of £500 to do it, we have found a similar suit on Marks and Spencer (M&S) for a fraction of the price. Marks and Spencer's £59 White Flared Trousers look incredibly alike the Nadine Merabi ones worn by Helen, but cost significantly less.

Fashion website Nasty Gal is also selling a blazer which looks almost identical to the £295 Nadine Merabi piece. The Premium Pearl Trim Tailored Blazer has been reduced down from £119 to £89.25 on the retailer's website.

ASOS, too, has a similar co-ord set, though this has white shorts instead of trousers. The Saint Genies pearl trim blazer co-ord in white is £48 online.

If pearls aren't your thing, and you'd like something a little more simple, then River Island's £69 White Linen Roll Sleeve Dad Blazer is a good option. Because of its simplicity, the £69 River Island blazer is an investment piece, and can be worn time and time again in any season.

Helen's original £485 Chester Races suit can be found on the Nadine Merabi website here.
