Strictly Come Dancing star Helen Skelton was in show-stopping form as she headed to the annual British Soap Awards in Salford at the weekend. Helen was a guest at soap's glitziest night to present an award alongside BBC Radio DJ Scott Mills.
She has wowed fans with her sophisticated red carpet outfit for the occasion - a stunning strapless red gown with diamante embellishment. Helen was on stage at The Lowry to present the Best Single Episode award which went to Coronation Street.
After Helen posted a series of photos from the events, fans and friends were quick to send their admiring comments to the mum-of-three. And many fashionistas were keen to find out where the outfit itself is from.

Helen took to instagram after the event to share a photo alongside her friends she saw at the awards, including Hollyoaks star Nikki Sanderson. She wrote: "What a privilege to see this top talent up for so many awards."
Friends and followers were loving the glamorous photo, with @Johngs saying: "U look knock out! Ravishing in red."

The distinctive dress Helen wore is by designer Self Portrait, and is one of the most in-demand styles of the moment among the fash pack. It's available in a number of different colours and skirt lengths, although Helen went for an elegant midi dress style for the soap awards.
It's currently available to buy online at Selfridges for £380. But if that's a little out of your price point, there are a number of cheaper alternatives online at the moment, although none quite have the same stunning embellishment as Helen's original.
We've found this strapless red number with a statement crossover back for £79 at Club L, while Oh Polly have a bodiced red bandeau for £55. There's an even cheaper alternative for just £21.99 at Shein.
Countryfile star Helen wore pretty silver heels with her outfit for the Soap Awards. We couldn't find exactly the same style but you can get similar from Asos Design for £28.
Helen completed her outfit with a distinctive globe crystal handbag by designer Mae Cassidy. Helen sent a shoutout to the designer to "thanks for the loan" of the bag on Instagram - but if you're wanting one yourself it's available to buy for a cool £399 from Harrods.
We've also found some decent dupes for the bag at a fraction of the price, including this gold and diamante handbag which is a bit of a steal for just £22 at PrettyLittleThing.
