Tonia Buxton, Jasmin Walia, Sinitta, Louise Hazel, Arlene Philips and Olivia Cox at the unveiling of Jody Bell’s new clothing range

Twice as nice! Jasmin Walia trades her thigh-skimming floral dress for demure cream creation as she leads the glamour at fashion launch 

She has high hopes of pop stardom following her departure from long-running reality show The Only Way Is Essex.
But ambitious plans for chart dominance were momentarily put on hold as Jasmin Walia attended the unveiling of fashion designer and philanthropist Jody Bell’s new clothing range on Wednesday evening.
The sultry brunette took centre stage while showcasing her diminutive frame in two equally stylish ensembles from the new collection at London’s Corinthia Hotel.

Commanding attention in the first – a thigh-skimming floral print minidress – Jasmin, 24, displayed her well-proportioned frame as she struck a pose on one of the upmarket venue’s sweeping staircases.
Strappy gold heels completed the look, while dusky make-up served top accentuate her already flawless complexion.
Offering the camera a coquettish glance, Jasmin proved to be an alluring sight while modelling the Spain based designer’s latest wares.

The dance pro was in high spirits as she rubbed shoulders with Olympian Louise Hazel, who eschwed the trend for sweeping dresses by stepping out in a snug roll neck sweater and skinny jeans. 
Jody, who comes from Enfield, designed her own clothes for more than decade before being encouraged to start her own business. 
'People would stop me all the time and say how much they liked my clothes,' she told the Evening Standard.
'I’d just knocked them up on a sewing machine. I thought, "Hang on, maybe I should give this a go properly"'.
