Stacey Solomon transforms her wedding dress into a playsuit while Vicky Pattison dyes hers yellow as they re-work their bridal gowns for sustainable BAFTAs

Stacey Solomon and Vicky Pattison re-purposed their wedding dresses for Sunday’s BAFTA TV Awards.

The ceremony has been championing sustainability in recent years and as part of its pledge, guests are asked to wear something already in existence – from their own wardrobe or rented. 

And two stars who used the occasion to bring out their most special garments were presenters Stacey, 35, and Vicky, 37. 

Stacey took to her Instagram ahead of the ceremony to share a slew of snaps in her dazzling outfit, which she revealed had been made from her bridal gown from her wedding to Joe Swash in July 2022. 

She showcased her tiny waist and toned legs in reworked dress, which had been altered into a fashion-forward playsuit, as she insisted wearing her wedding look only once ‘feels like a travesty’.

Keeping the corseted bodice from the original dress, Stacey removed the off-the-shoulder sleeves and added dramatic pointed detailing to the neckline.

While her skirt was changed into shorts, with a thigh-high slit cut into the sparkling skirt overlay, allowing a glimpse at her long legs underneath.

Revealing the sweet origin of her outfit, Stacey also explained why she decided to re-wear her special dress from her wedding day.

She wrote: ‘I decided to have my wedding dress re worked for today because wearing it once feels like a travesty to me. I wanted to get her out of the box & take her out on another special day.

‘Thank you @fayesawyerstylist & Issy for transforming my wedding dress into something so special & beautiful. I love you girls. Thank you penny for making me feel so beautiful as always. HERE WE GO! Fingers crossed’.

Meanwhile Vicky rewore one of her collection of dresses from her nuptials to Ercan Ramadan. 

She looked sensational in a busty satin ruched gown with off-shoulder straps, which she had dyed ʙuттer yellow from its original wedding white. 

‘For this year’s @bafta with @pandocruises I wanted to give one of my wedding dresses a new lease of life,’ she wrote.

Explaining the policy from BAFTA, blogger Alice Liveing shared on her Instagram Story: ‘We were asked not to buy anything new for tonight but instead either rent or rewear so I’ve managed to get another wear out of an old favourite that I truly love, and I love that it made me shop my own wardrobe before getting something new!’

BAFTA’s sustainability clause reads: ‘London College of Fashion, UAL is once again working with BAFTA to invite guests to dress more sustainably this awards season. 

‘We’ve developed this guide to help you make considered fashion choices and to become a voice for change through fashion. The clothes we wear use precious resources and should stay in wardrobes for as long as they possibly can, whether ours or someone else’s.’

The 2025 BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises saw a slew of celebrities take home awards celebrating excellence in TV on Sunday, at the glitzy ceremony held in the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall.

Mr. Bates vs The Post Office led the big winners of the evening, scoring two more awards to add to the ground-breaking ITV show’s ever-growing list of accolades.

However, it was the BBC who came out on top, scoring 17 wins in total after a year of triumphant programming, in the ceremony – presented this year by actor Alan Cumming.

While Netflix smash Baby Reindeer and the climactic Gavin & Stacey Christmas special also won key awards.

Widely expected to claim much of Sunday evening’s spotlight, Mr. Bates vs The Post Office picked up an early award for Limited Drama.

Accepting the gong from Russell Tovey and Daniel Mays, producer Patrick Spencer said: ‘We could only film this because Polly Hill at ITV saved us from getting cancelled and this story only had the impact it did because the people who watched it stood up as one and demanded action with such rage, that the government had no choice but to respond.

‘Our show didn’t change the law, the people of this nation did. They showed in their response to Mr. Bates vs The Post Office that our country cannot abide liars and bullies.’ 

He added: ‘May it be a warning to those who are supposed to have our backs, that they better not abuse their power.

‘When accepting this award, we would like to go on record that being trusted by the post-masters to tell their story has been the greatest privilege of our lives.’ 

ITV went on to claim a Special Award, presented by Baroness Floella Benjamin – for its work in commissioning Mr. Bates vs The Post Office. 

Urging Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour government to rush through arranged compensation payments for affected former postal employees, ITV boss Kevin Lygo said: ‘Hurry up and pay these people what they are due.’

Danny Dyer then forced the BBC to do some quick editing, after he let slip several swear words during his acceptance speech for best Male Performance in a Comedy.

The actor, 47, won his first BAFTA for his role as Lee in Mr. Bigstuff, and allowed his excitement to get the better of him in his typically expletive-laden speech.

After first saying: ‘F***ing hell, I’m choked up’, the EastEnders star then shared a sweet and hilarious tribute to Mr. Bigstuff writer and his co-star Ryan Sampson, which led him to turning the air blue once more.

Danny said: ‘But I got to dedicate this to Ryan Sampson. One of the greatest things to come out of Rotherham. Which is not saying much.

‘But one of the best actors this country’s ever produced, I’m telling you. Never done the same thing twice. Which is not something I can say. 

‘He wrote this part for me, so you know… I’m getting choked up again, f**k me. So you won this for me mate, I really appreciate it, thank you so much.’

He finished by addressing his two daughters Dani, 28, and Sunnie, 18, who were sat in the audience and took the opportunity to swear one last time, declaing: ‘Girls, Sunnie and Dani. I’ve done it girls, I’ve f***ing done it!’

However, the BBC were less than impressed by the star breaking the watershed, with host Alan being forced to say: ‘I’ve been asked to apologise for the naughty language there.’

And when the moment was aired just an hour later, the broadcaster made sure to trim down Danny’s speech and cut out all of his curses.

Alan later accidentally let slip a swear word of his own, while presenting the prestigious BAFTA Fellowship award to journalist Kirsty Wark.

The Scottish star suffered an unfortunate blunder by mistakenly introducing the award as the ‘b*****d fellowship’, and upon realising his error, the mortified actor let loose yet another swear, as he sheepishly muttered: ‘Oh f*** me!’

The Fellowship is the highest accolade bestowed by BAFTA upon an individual in recognition of an outstanding and exceptional contribution to film, games or television.
