The lovely Holly Willoughby is not only one of our favourite TV presenters, but she's also one of our ultimate style icons. The Dancing On Ice host consistently wows us with gorgeous dresses and dreamy floral prints, and we love looking to the much-loved star for some serious style inspiration.

Right now, we've been loving seeing Holly on our screens as she hosts Netflix's new survival show, Celebrity Bear Hunt. The show sees intrepid adventurer Bear Grylls put 12 famous faces to the test in the Costa Rican jungle. Far from their celebrity lives back home, the stars are well and truly put through their paces as they take on gruelling challenges and learn to survive in the jungle.

As we've watched celebrities, including Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas, Spice Girls icon Mel B, and The Saturdays singer Una Healy, push themselves to their limits, we've also been loving Holly's gorgeous outfits.

On the show, Holly can be seen wearing an array of gorgeous summer dresses and playsuits, which would be perfect for our next holiday. If, like us, you've been desperate to know how you can replicate Holly's impeccable style, then we've tracked down the dresses she's wearing on Celebrity Bear Hunt, along with some more affordable alternatives.

Keep scrolling for some serious style inspo.
