Nicole Scherzinger enjoys an X Factor style overhaul in a dramatic canary yellow fishtail gown... as Sharon Osbourne opts for full-on gothic glamour
She tends to stick to glamorous gowns in muted hues as she struts her stuff on The X Factor stage.
But Nicole Scherzinger injected a welcome pop of colour to Big Band night on Saturday as she showcased her stunning hourglass curves in a dramatic canary yellow fishtail gown.
Positively stealing the show before the acts had even taken to the stage for the evening, the 35-year-old singer exuded old Hollywood glamour in the striking full-length dress by Michael Costello.
A tale of two outfits: Nicole Scherzinger opted for a dramatic canary yellow dress on Saturday night's X Factor, while Sharon Osbourne chose full-on gothic glamour in black lace
Featuring a dramatic train and a cute peplum at the lower back, the eye-popping gown had a daring cutaway halterneck detail around the bust and was completely backless.
The Don't Hold Your Breath hitmaker paid homage to her Hawaiian roots with a tropical-inspired large white headpiece, which she teamed with a chic bouffant up-do to showcase her dress in all its glory.
Nicole completed her incredible X Factor look with dramatic smokey eye make-up and a slick of vampy berry lipstick as she took to the stage alongside fellow judges Sharon Osbourne, Louis Walsh and Gary Barlow.
