Maya Jama Stuns in £4,500 Vintage Lace Gown at National Television Awards

Maya Jama oozed glamour as she lit up the red carpet at the National Television Awards on Wednesday evening. 

The TV presenter, 31, turned heads in a £4,500 vintage piece from Galitzine Couture made from black lace and ostrich feathers for the star-studded event. 

Her show-stopping look featured a sheer bodice with delicate floral lace embroidery, long sleeves trimmed with feather cuffs, and a dramatic feathered hem.

Maya teamed the look with sheer black tights to highlight her long, toned pins, finishing off the ensemble with pointed black stiletto heels. 

Letting the dress take centre stage, she skipped accessories and opted for a glowing makeup look, styling her dark tresses sleek and straight. 

Later in the night, Maya commanded attention once again as she took to the stage to present the Talent Show award to Strictly Come Dancing.

Beaming as she read out the winner, the TV star appeared in high spirits while handing over the coveted gong to the BBC show. 

Hosted by Joel Dommett, the ceremony was televised live on ITV1 as the winners were officially revealed after months of voting.  

Two years after their bruising defeat to The Repair Shop, This Morning scooped the Best Daytime gong again. 

It’s the first for new hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley, with Alison Hammond telling the audience how they had all been ‘humbled’ by the past two losses. 

Strictly Come Dancing were also champions, bagging Best Talent Show.

However, due to recording schedules for this year’s series, Tess Daly, Claudia Winkleman, and the judges were unable to be there to collect the award. 

The night started as comedian Michael McIntyre scored a huge win for his Big Show, scooping The Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award.

Meanwhile, the final ever series of Vera lost out to the BBC’s Call The Midwife for Best Returning Drama.
