Just when we thought we'd seen Julianne Hough's best all-white look, she strikes again. The Dancing with the Stars co-host, 35, has taken to Instagram to share a video of her sensational white gown from when she presented ABC's popular dance show with Alfonso Ribeiro on Tuesday night. 

The dancer was seen strutting into the DWTS set transforming from a pair of skinny jeans and khaki cardigan through double doors into the stunning gown. The dress was a billowing floor-length number with matching billowing full sleeves.

Despite the oversized flowing fabric, the dress didn't swap the dancer at all, owing to a cold shoulder detail which met a panel of fabric which came up to her neck and formed a super quirky detail – a tie look and formal shirt style collar.

The angelic gown trailed on the floor but slightly lifted at the front thanks to her incredible shoes. The former DWTS pro dancer opted for a pair of cream super platformed heels with an ankle strap.

The professional dancer, whose brother Derek Hough has also been on DWTS' roster, added glamorous finishing touches. Julianne wore her hair in loose old Hollywood waves tucked behind her ears with a neat centre part.

Julianne Hough wowed in white

Since the dress was such a statement, the Safe Haven star opted for simple jewellery in the form of several silver hoops.

Her makeup look was also noteworthy. The Grease Live actress wore a soft pink eyeshadow look with the outer corner of her eye accentuated with fluttery lashes for a fox eye look. She paired the eye look with rosy cheeks and a light pink glossy lip which complemented the ethereal feel of the billowing dress perfectly.

Julianne has previously strutted up a storm in white. In September she took to the streets of New York City in an all-white ensemble with an edgier feel. The dancer-cum-actress wore a white cropped blazer in a boxy fit with a ruched midi skirt which was bodycon until the mid-thigh where it flowed out in a sheer fabric bottom with white piping. 

Staying with the angelic look, the Footloose actress added a white blouse with a textured detail down the front and a sharp collar, finishing the look with a white oversized clutch and white stilettos.
