Masterpiece Or Disasterpiece: Denise Van Outen Goes Gaga For Glitter At London Photocall

Posted: 26/11/12 | Updated: 27/11/12

Get updates from Ellen Stewart:

Who? Denise Van Outen... and a giant telly remote

What? Did someone drop a glitter ball on Denise Van Outen? Well, at least she's getting into the spirit of the season. Actress Denise rocked up to a festive photocall to promote Freeview+'s live pausing and rewinding service in a wrap-around glitter-tastic minidress... or is it a playsuit?

Where? Leadenhall Market, London

Verdict? Whether it was a dress or indeed playsuit, it sure as heck was shiny, showed off Denise's killer pins and totally matched that giant remote control she accessorised with.

Team MyDaily is divided over this Christmassy look. Camp A say she looks as though she should be sat on the top of a Christmas tree, and camp B say she's ringing in the festive cheer (and, if you've got it flaunt it). Which side of the fence are you a'sitting on?

Denise talks Strictly and tells all about what she wants for Christmas.
