She’s an up and coming former X Factor contestant with a bright future ahead of her.

And Tamera Foster certainly made sure she stood out as she performed at the Phones4U Arena in Manchester.

The 17-year-old star shone in a white, asymmetrical dress emblazoned with a sequin decorated T.

The dress resembled a white baseball T-shirt from one side, with a thigh-skimming hem.

From the opposite angle, the dress featured a dramatic, full-length black skirt.

The singer added some striking heels with straps at the calves, while she styled her hair in ringlet curls to complete her look.

The X Factor Tour kicked off earlier this month at the Belfast Odyssey Arena, and is set to travel to Newcastle, Glasgow and Aberdeen.
