A frilling performance! Mollie King wears a fringed basque as The Saturdays take to the stage at Virgin Media's V Festival without pregnant Frankie Sandford

They’re glamping it up this weekend at the V Festival.
But the band temporarily vacated their homely digs on Saturday afternoon when they took to the Virgin Media Stage for a performance at the annual event at Hylands Park in south Staffordshire.
While their performance at the event was all about the music, attention was drawn to the bands Aztec themed outfits as they worked their way through an array of hits from their back catalogue.

No frills on me: Mollie King wears a fringed basque and tassels on her denim shorts at the annual event
Indeed, both Rochelle and Vanessa opted for distinctive printed stage-wear, while band-mates Mollie and Una chose multi-coloured tassels.
Mollie in particular stood out thanks to her fringed basque, while a series of pink and yellow tassels decorated the rear of her fitted denim shorts.
The band were performing on day one of the annual event - which runs until Sunday - and they were on good form as they belted out the hits despite the absence of Frankie Sandford, who is currently on maternity leave.

Frankie revealed last week that she was pulling out of the gig as she prepares for the birth of her first child with former England left-back Wayne Bridge.
In a post to her followers on twitter she wrote: ‘Hey guys, really sad I won’t be there for the next few gigs, as I’ve been advised not to perform by my doctor until the baby arrives.
‘But don’t worry, I know my other 4 Sats will totally rock it while I’m resting the bump. I’ll be back ASAP!’
