Kara Tointon looks Strictly stylish in a flapper-style dress at the Laurence Olivier Awards

Dressing for the Laurence Olivier Awards last night, Kara Tointon was clearly going for a Twenties, flapper girl looking.

But as she walked on the red carpet, the Strictly Come Dancing 2010 winner's stunning gown was in danger of being overshadowed by her tiny frame.

Several guests commented on the actress's skinny figure as posed at the star-studded theatre ceremony at the Royal Opera House.

One wrote on Twitter: 'How much weight has kara tointon lost? She looks unwell!', while another tweeted: 'Kara Tointon is tiny and stunning.'

The ex-EastEnder, 28, steered away from the predominant floor-length gowns for an Alice + Olivia Minka sequinned shift dress, which she teamed with a pair of nude Christian Louboutin heels and Garrard diamonds.
