Amanda Holden wowed as she transformed herself into a "sexy" Dorothy for World Book Day, clad in a thigh skimming gingham dress and pigtails.

World Book Day is a charity event held every year which encourages people to dress up as their favorite book characters.

Every school child receives a voucher to be spent on books and has been running since 1997.

The media personality has recently been showing off her style as she made sure all eyes were on her as she left the Heart FM studios earlier this week.

Amanda ditched her bra while sporting a white cardigan - leaving little to the imagination. She completed her look with a camel coat, matching shoes and a calf-length skirt.

The Britain's Got Talent host is known for her incredible figure and shocked fans when she revealed her age during recent birthday celebrations.

Sharing pictures in a bikini, she told her followers: "52 today -grateful to be alive and happy with people I love."

However fans thought Amanda looked more like 25 with one telling the TV star she 'set the bar high for other women'.
