She may be the princess of pop but Kylie Minogue seemed to hit a sartorial bum-note on the final of X Factor.
The pint-sized singer, who positively wowed the crowds with a lounge-style version of Better the Devil You Know, appeared wearing a lace all-in-one under a black corset.
But according to the Mirror's Polly Hudson, her homage to Cher's Turn back Time video provoked both tears and laughter from viewers.
"The knickers bit was so high-cut, it made even Kylie's tiny thighs look like Fatima Whitbread's," she wrote. "She's a respected performer who hardly needs to shock."
The Australian singer performed a duet with Leon Jackson, who went on to win the contest.
And although he held his own vocally, Kylie outshone him when it came to an onstage outfit - her get-up may have seemed to many at odds with Leon's casual, Michael Buble-esque suit.
Ms Hudson also wrote that Kylie looked like "a senile granny who had forgotten to put her skirt on".
However, fellow X Factor guest Katherine Jenkins proved to be a knock-out with her rendition of You Raise Me Up.
She appeared in a beautiful black gown during the duet with runner-up Rhydian Roberts.
