When Maya Jama stepped onto the Love Island 2025 finale stage under the Ibiza moonlight, all we could focus on was the sensational archive Tom Ford gown she was sporting.
Yes she was presenting the tumultuous season's most-anticipated episode - but she was also carving out a fine slice of fashion history.
Sculpted to perfection in rich scarlet silk, the dress was a figure hugging masterpiece created with architectural precision.
Well, would we expect anything less than the celebrated designer, who found acclaimed fame with his bombastic pieces?

The series has undoubtedly seen moments of high drama, with feuds forming on screen as well as some troubling commentary by some of the male stars of the show, sparking a debate on how sexism and misogyny are sinking their claws into the mainstream media.

In a world where fast fashion has clambered its way to the top of the food chain, we can't sing our praises for vintage pieces loudly enough. Go on Maya.

And best of all - the beloved presenter has confirmed that the show will be back next year for more romantic hijinx. Oh Maya, we'll be glued to our screens as per usual...
