Maura Higgins was forced to pull out of attending the British Fashion Awards at the last minute after dubbing her own dress "not very appropriate".
The Love Island star, 32, is known for her sexy and racy fashion sense - but admitted that she was uncomfortable wearing her own outfit and pulled out of the event last minute.
Dubbing it a "nightmare", she said that she had had "zero control" over her custom-made gown as she took to her Instagram Stories, Mirror.co.uk reports.
While she was getting ready, Maura made a peace sign and wrote: "BFA tonight... first time to have zero control on my outfit... excited to see what @scott_henshall has designed for me."
Designer Scott Henshall, who is the former creative director of Mulberry, reshared the post on his own Insta Stories with a heart emoji.
However, just a couple of hours later, Maura updated fans on why she hadn't yet posted any photos of herself on the red carpet.
Glammed up in make-up and a very low-cut strappy silver dress, Maura admitted: "I've had a bit of a nightmare. So obviously you can see I am fully ready. Glam team are on point as usual. Basically.... the dress, the shoes, everything wasn't something I'd wear.
"I don't really know what to say, it's like, I just feel it's not very appropriate for the Fashion Awards.
"I obviously do like to go daring, you guys know that, but I just feel, I don't know. It's just not right. So yeah, I've decided not to go. I'm still in the hotel as you can see."
Designer Henshall, 47, also dressed Dame Kelly Holmes, Karen Millen OBE, Lady Victoria Hervey, Jude Law's daughter Iris and Talulah-Eve.
Maura is known for her daring dress sense and last month went braless for a girls night out with best pal Maura Higgins.
