Oti Mabuse made a bold fashion statement as she arrived at the Olivier Awards in London on Sunday.

The professional dancer, 35, turned heads in a striking orange corset mini dress as she posed up a storm on the red carpet at the star-studded event, held at the Royal Albert Hall. 

The daring ensemble featured a dramatic statement neckline, a structured corseted bodice and a thigh-skimming hemline, complete with a dramatic train. 

Flaunting her toned legs, Oti added inches to her frame with satin orange peep-toe heels featuring a silver ball heel. 

Letting her vibrant outfit do the talking, she kept accessories to a minimum, opting for diamond drop earrings and a selection of rings.

To complete her look, she styled her dark tresses in a voluminous blowout, beaming as she posed for cameras outside the iconic venue.
