Claudia Winkleman has been wowing us with her gothic style on Celebrity Traitors – and we’ve found a high street alternative to her £1,330 Alexander McQueen shirt

BBC’s hit series The Celebrity Traitors made a triumphant return last week, with Claudia Winkleman once again at the helm. With the show’s unexpected twists and turns fully gripping me, I was seriously obsessed with its stylish host’s new Traitors wardrobe – all thanks to the presenter’s stylist, Sinead McKeefry.

In keeping with the show’s eerie theme, it appears Claudia is swapping Strictly’s sparkles and her typical Traitors Highlands-inspired tartan and knitwear – for now – for a more gothic aesthetic. Flaunting dark monochrome outfits complete with frilly shirts, black capes and biker boots, it’s a look we adore.

For those looking to emulate her style, her wardrobe does seem to be brimming with designer labels (as suggested by Sinead’s tags on Instagram) – including what appears to be Alexander McQueen. We suspect his White Plissé Ruffle-Neck Blouse, priced at £1330 at Harrods, made an appearance in last Thursday’s episode, reports OK!.

Teamed with a black Alexander McQueen Wool and silk coat, black trousers, black boots, and a black merino wool turtle neck from Cos – sensing a theme here – the blouse’s standout ruffle sleeves and plissé neckline peeked through the coat adding a touch of drama. Not forgetting her iconic lace black veil.

Of course, not all of us are able or willing to splash out hundreds on Claudia’s shirt (even if it is currently on sale at Flannels for £429). So, I took it upon myself to hunt down a more budget-friendly alternative.

This White Ruffle Detail Shirt from Mint Velvet, priced at £99, is a fabulous alternative with its dramatic ruffles on the cuff and front. Although it doesn’t feature an open neck like Alexander McQueen’s style, its striking ruffles would surely get Claudia’s nod of approval.

The shirt comes with a traditional collar and feminine scoop hemline, available in sizes six to 16. Crafted from 100% viscose, there are no reviews yet, but the care instructions do advise that it should be dry cleaned only – the only downside we can spot.

For a blouse with more of a plissé style in the cuffs, we love this Mint Velvet Cream Pearl Detail Blouse at £110. It boasts a pleated, layered cuff, a pussy bow neckline, military-inspired trim and pearl detailing.

Paired with a structured blazer, her classic shapewear leggings (£58) and Bottega boots (£1,080), this blouse would look stunning on the fashion icon. It has sizes small, medium and extra-large in stock.
