Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield have been dishing up the latest news from the This Morning sofa once again.
As well as covering hot topics, the show is great for finding style inspiration, as Willoughby’s outfits always impress and continuously deliver effortless elegance.
Willoughby is a style icon after our own hearts, too – opting for affordable high-street favourites, including LK Bennett, Oasis, Karen Millen, La Redoute and Nobody’s Child, to name just a few.
This week alone, she’s worn a £45 dress from Nobody’s Child and a poodle print shirt from & Other Stories after kicking off the week in a Forties-inspired polka-dot shirt and straight-leg wool trousers.
Today, the presenter has opted for another shirt, this time paired with a sophisticated nappa leather white midi skirt.
Hailing from two of the presenter’s favourite brands, Pure Collection and Massimo Dutti, here’s where to shop her look.

Where is Holly Willoughby’s outfit from and where can I buy it?
For Thursday’s show, Holly wore a £135 silk white shirt from Pure Collection and a luxe-looking £269 nappa leather white midi from Massimo Dutti.
Pure Collection washed silk shirt: £135, Purecollection.com
Every wardrobe needs a simple white shirt. This offering from Pure Collection is made entirely from silk, promising to be lightweight and wafty. With its shirt collar and smart straight shape, it’s a formalwear winner.
Massimo Dutti long nappa leather skirt: £269, Massimodutti.com
Made from sheepskin leather, Massimo Dutti’s nappa leather long-line skirt is a statement workwear or occasion piece. The front slit is a flattering detail while the lined design makes it ideal for cooler weather.
Does Holly Willoughby wear her own clothes on This Morning?
Holly Willoughby has a stylist for This Morning who works with her to compile her wardrobe, rather than wearing her own clothes.
Speaking to Red magazine in 2020, she revealed that putting together an outfit “hasn’t always come naturally”. She added: “For a long time, I was pretty clueless.” However, her Instagram feed when she’s not working says otherwise, featuring an array of equally stylish ensembles, in our opinion.
Who is Holly Willoughby’s stylist?
Danielle Whiteman became Holly Willoughby’s regular This Morning stylist towards the end of 2020, replacing Angie Smith – Whiteman was previously an assistant to Smith, who is now based in Sydney.
Smith is often credited with having engineered Holly Willoughby’s transformation to a national fashion icon in recent years: “Holly was open to new ideas,” she explained during an interview with YOU magazine. “The main thing I wanted to do was get her into more colour – so we tried everything on and went from there. I remember her saying: ‘I’ve had my kids. I just need to change it up’.”
How does Holly Willoughby do her hair?
Holly Willoughby’s hair stylist is Ciler Peksah, who works with her for This Morning and Dancing on Ice, and seems to have well and truly mastered the ultimate wavy blonde bob. Previous products Peksah has said she’s used on the presenter’s hair include Batiste dry shampoo, T3 curling tongs and Aveda’s damage remedy daily hair repair (£29, Lookfantastic.com).
Willoughby is also a Garnier Nutrisse ambassador and shared a clip of herself dying her own hair, using the Natural Baby Blonde shade from the range, during lockdown, if you want to achieve the same shade.
Where is Holly Willoughby from?
Holly Willoughby is originally from Brighton, East Sussex, and attended Burgess Hill Girls school. She now lives in southwest London with her husband Dan Baldwin and their three children, Belle, Harry and Chester.
