Amanda Holden wowed fans after stepping out in a plunging hot pink gown while in Dubai at an exclusive Revive Collagen Party. The TV presenter shared the images of her glamorous look on Instagram, where fans flocked to say they were « obsessed » and left « speechless ».
The dress, featuring a deep plunging neckline and thigh-high split, is from New York-born label Retrofête, known for its « high contemporary » party wear, though Amanda shared that she had rented it, especially for the occasion from UAE-based circular fashion platform Endless. She paired it with a pair of dusky pink stiletto heels and was dripping in gold jewellery, including a stylish pendant necklace and glitzy watch.
Commenting on her post, one fan said: « Speechless. Those legs. » Another simply wrote: « Obsessed! »
Though the exact Retrofête number worn by Amanda is no longer in stock, typically items from the retailer don’t come cheap. The average cost of a maxi dress in the current Retrofête collection is between £500 and £700, though there are some similar items currently on sale.

Though you can’t get Amanda’s exact look, both the Valeria dress and the Cari Maxi Dress offer a similar vibe and come in eye-catching shades of pink.
The Valeria dress features an equally as sensuous plunging neckline and thigh-high split, though is made of a silkier-looking fabric than Amanda’s dress. Currently on final sale for £225, down from £560, the dress has already sold out in sizes small XXS, XS and S – so you might want to snap this item up quickly if it’s caught your eye.
Alternatively, there is the Cari Maxi Dress, boasting a similarly flattering silhouette with a thigh-high split, but with a slightly different keyhole halter neckline. The bold, fuschia piece features a lightweight fabric, perfect for holidays and warmer weather, as well as an eye-catching fabric detail.
The dress is also on final sale, reduced from £772 to £225, and is currently in stock in all sizes except for XXL.

If you love Amanda’s plunging neckline and sleek silhouette, the Murcia Maxi Dress from ASOS could be a fantastic option – whether you have a holiday planned or an upcoming party. The dress lacks the same thigh-high split as Amanda’s dress but does offer a cowl neckline and a similarly eye-catching shade of pink.
Though the dress retails at £43 full price, it is currently on sale for £32.50. However, as is often the case with discounted items, it is selling through sizes in the range fast – so if it’s something you have your eye on it may be one to add to your basket sooner rather than later.

If you want to recreate Amanda’s pop of pink but prefer to opt for a more modest neckline, the OMNES Aurelia Dress in cerise is a great option. Perfect for formal occasions, the dress has an open back and v-neckline, though doesn’t include the same leg split.
Instead, it offers a sleek, maxi silhouette and beautiful red lace detailing around the chest, including a feminine peek-a-boo lace insert under the bust.
Omnes also emphasises the sustainability of the dress, and all garments in its range, explaining that the Aurelia is crafted from recycled polyester and uses « sustainable » lace.
The Aurelia Dress in Cerise is available on the OMNES website for £89 in a full range of sizes.

Amanda’s tickled pink look and floaty fabric might be what has caught your eye, but perhaps you’re not a lover of maxi dresses or want to avoid too deep a neckline. In that case, the Adrianna Papell Pink Knit And Mesh Halter Dress, which is available from Next, could be a great option.
The bright pink dress might have you dreaming of summer days on holiday or could double up as a lovely wedding guest dress.
This midi dress features a strappy halter neck that adds a touch of glamour to the classic fit-and-flare design. The dress also has a comfortable knit bodice, while the tiered mesh skirt overlay adds a touch of romance. The dress is currently available for £249 which, although not the cheapest, could be the perfect investment piece for a special occasion.
