The National Television Awards may celebrate the best of British television, but the red carpet often generates almost as much discussion as the trophies themselves.

That was certainly the case at London’s O2 Arena on Tuesday night, where Katie Price, Amanda Holden and Tasha Ghouri were among the stars whose bold fashion choices divided attention before the ceremony had even begun.

From lace hot pants and dramatic corsetry to sequins, PVC and daring cut-outs, several celebrities opted for outfits designed to make an impact — although not every look proved universally flattering.

Katie Price makes a revealing red carpet entrance

Katie Price arrived alongside her daughter Princess in one of the evening’s most revealing ensembles.

The former glamour model wore a low-cut white shirt teamed with lace hot pants, putting the results of her recent cosmetic procedures on display as she posed for photographers.

Princess joined her mother for the star-studded event, with the pair appearing together on the red carpet before heading inside for the ceremony.

Katie’s outfit was among those singled out as one of the night’s more controversial fashion choices.

Amanda Holden goes bold in bright pink

Amanda Holden also ensured she would not go unnoticed.

The television and radio presenter chose a vibrant fuchsia satin gown featuring multiple bow-shaped cut-outs.

The design included a plunging neckline and dramatic detailing across the front, making it one of the more daring dresses seen at the ceremony.

While the vivid colour ensured the gown stood out against the red carpet, its revealing construction made it another of the evening’s most talked-about looks.

Tasha Ghouri arrives covered in sequins

Tasha Ghouri went in a completely different direction, opting for head-to-toe sparkle.

The former Love Island star arrived wearing a heavily sequined gown with a revealing cut that exposed plenty of underboob.

Her shimmering outfit immediately caught the light as she posed outside the O2, becoming another of the night’s statement looks.

Amy Childs chooses dramatic floral corsetry

Amy Childs also embraced a theatrical style for the occasion.

The reality star wore a dramatic green corset gown decorated with faux floral embroidery.

The rich colour stood out sharply against her deeply tanned complexion, while the structured bodice and decorative detailing gave the outfit a particularly elaborate finish.

Megan McKenna and Demi Jones embrace black

Megan McKenna opted for a darker aesthetic, arriving in a black PVC blazer paired with a matching skirt.

The glossy material ensured the outfit remained eye-catching despite its monochrome colour palette.

Demi Jones also wore black, although her look was considerably more revealing.

The former Love Island contestant appeared in a high-cut black skirt with a diamante-covered corset, creating one of the more daring combinations on the carpet.

Georgia Harrison and Jasmine Muller opt for revealing designs

Georgia Harrison brought a burst of colour to proceedings in a dramatic blue-and-orange gown.

The dress featured a revealing bodice and an elaborate silhouette that ensured she stood apart from many of the evening’s more traditional looks.

Fellow Love Island star Jasmine Muller also chose an outfit that left little to the imagination as she attended with her villa love interest Kavan Murphy.

Her revealing ensemble became another of the fashion moments attracting attention before the awards began.

Lottie Tomlinson turns to nude lace

Lottie Tomlinson completed the line-up of more unconventional looks with a nude-and-lace gown featuring a corset-style bodice.

The unusual construction combined lingerie-inspired details with a dramatic red carpet silhouette, making it one of the evening’s more experimental choices.

While the fashion divided opinion, the awards themselves delivered a packed night of major wins, emotional speeches and several surprises.

David Attenborough wins Best Presenter

One of the biggest results of the evening came in the Best Presenter category.

David Attenborough, now in his 100th year, took home the award, extending Ant and Dec’s wait for another victory.

The Geordie presenting duo had held the prize for a record 23 consecutive years before Gary Lineker ended their extraordinary run at the previous ceremony.

This year, the honour went to Attenborough.

Producer Mark Brownlow accepted the trophy on his behalf and used the speech to focus attention on the dangers posed by climate change.

This Morning continues its winning run

This Morning added another trophy to its collection by winning Best Daytime Show.

Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard accepted the award alongside Friday presenters Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary.

The victory continued the programme’s strong history at the NTAs despite another year of intense competition in the daytime category.

Strictly Come Dancing takes Best Talent Show

Ahead of its planned revamp, Strictly Come Dancing secured the award for Best Talent Show.

The BBC competition added another major trophy to its long list of accolades despite facing strong competition from other entertainment formats.

Meanwhile, The Celebrity Traitors won the Reality Competition category.

The BBC series, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, had dominated the nominations alongside the original civilian version of The Traitors.

Alan Carr jokes after collecting another award

Alan Carr enjoyed a particularly successful night.

The comedian had already received the Special Recognition award earlier in the ceremony before returning to the stage as part of The Celebrity Traitors’ victory.

“I bet you’re sick of me,” he joked while accepting his second award of the evening.

Charlotte Church then used the microphone to praise Carr and fellow Faithfuls Nick Mohammed and David Olusoga for a moment of “male tenderness and emotion.”

Clarkson’s Farm wins Reality Docuseries

Jeremy Clarkson’s Prime Video series Clarkson’s Farm was named the winner of the Reality Docuseries category.

Clarkson later spoke during the winners’ press conference about his recent health problems.

Earlier in the year, the 66-year-old revealed that he was in remission from prostate cancer.

He downplayed the emotional impact of the diagnosis and treatment, instead describing the interruption to his work as frustrating.

“I wasn’t emotional; it was annoying,” Clarkson said.

He explained that he had also dealt with a heart issue and “a bit of cancer,” adding that he was only away for around two weeks.

His main complaint was that the timing caused him to miss part of the harvest.

Lee Mack wins again for The 1% Club

Lee Mack was another familiar winner.

The comedian collected the award for his ITV quiz show The 1% Club after attending the ceremony with his three children.

During his speech, he also paid tribute to his wife.

The programme has become one of ITV’s most successful entertainment formats, built around questions designed to test logic rather than traditional general knowledge.

Michael McIntyre’s Big Show takes entertainment prize

The Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award went to Michael McIntyre’s Big Show.

Paris Fury and her eight-year-old daughter Valencia presented the category.

The award added another major honour to the BBC entertainment series.

Mrs Brown’s Boys wins Best Comedy

The cast of Mrs Brown’s Boys celebrated after being named Best Comedy Show.

The victory came after a difficult period for creator and star Brendan O’Carroll, who had been forced to cancel the programme’s festive specials after breaking his jaw.

The award therefore offered a welcome boost for the long-running comedy.

Gogglebox continues its success

Channel 4’s Gogglebox, now in its 28th series, won the Factual Entertainment award.

The programme beat competition including Stacey Solomon’s Sort Your Life Out to take the trophy.

Its continued success underlined the enduring popularity of the format more than a decade after it first launched.

Vicky McClure makes history in all-female drama category

For the first time in National Television Awards history, the Best Drama Performance nominees were entirely female.

Vicky McClure ultimately took the prize for her performance as explosives officer Lana Washington in Trigger Point.

Her win capped a particularly competitive category filled with acclaimed performances.

I Fought the Law wins New Drama

Sheridan Smith’s I Fought the Law was named Best New Drama.

The series secured the award following a strong reception and another prominent performance from Smith.

Elsewhere, the BBC special Our Girls: The Southport Families won the Authored Documentary category.

Call the Midwife and Emmerdale finish the night with major wins

Call the Midwife added another trophy to its collection by winning Best Returning Drama.

Emmerdale was named Best Serial Drama, while Jeff Hordley won the Serial Drama Performance award.

Those victories completed a night in which long-running favourites shared the spotlight with newer television successes.

Yet before any of the winners had been announced, much of the attention had already been claimed outside the arena.

Katie Price’s lace hot pants, Amanda Holden’s cut-out satin gown, Tasha Ghouri’s sequins and a string of other adventurous outfits ensured the 2026 NTAs delivered just as much debate on the red carpet as it did inside the ceremony.
