Tulisa Contostavlos fails to impress in Pucci dress as Nicole Scherzinger wins viewers praise with flowing gown


'My nan called, she wants her curtains back': Tulisa Contostavlos fails to impress in Pucci dress as Nicole Scherzinger wins viewers praise with flowing gown 


There might be stiff competition on stage between contestants, but the battle in the style stakes between the female judges is just as fierce. 
And tonight Tulisa Contostavlos found herself falling out of fashion favour with viewers thanks to her floor-length monochrome dress. 
Fans were not impressed with the look and wasted no time taking to Twitter to express their views, with the majority concluding that Nicole Scherzinger outshone the British star.

Nicole, 34, dazzled in a flowing lace and chiffon dress by Kristian Aadnevik which she teamed with a pair of Nicholas Kirkwood shoes. 
The dress boasted a lace top with studded leather detail before billowing out into a dark olive green skirt with a split at one side. 
The former Pussycat Doll made the most of the ensemble by carrying one side of her dress and swishing it around as she emerged onto the stage at the start of the show. 
Failing to flatter: The floor-length Pucci dress was not a hit with viewers and the outfit didn't showcase her figure as well as other outfits have done

In contrast Tulisa's Pucci ensemble proved to be somewhat underwhelming and fans took to Twitter to give their views on the outfits. 
One particularly harsh critic wrote: 'Tulisa my nan called, she wants her curtains back.' 
Another posted: 'Looking at Tulisa sat next to Nicole is like Primark next to Prada.'
Showing off the dress to the full effect: The 34-year-old walked out onto the stage with the skirt of her Kristian Aadnevik dress in her hand to show off the split

While Tulisa might well have failed to impress with her outfit her three girls Ella Henderson, Jade Ellis and Lucy Spraggan all made it through to next week's show.
Nicole also found herself sitting pretty with Jahmene Douglas and James Arthur also bagging a place. 
Rylan Clark, who was found in the bottom two last week also soared through to next week and celebrating the achievement by picking up his mentor and running off with her around the stage.
