We’ve missed seeing Holly Willoughby on our screens more than once on a Sunday. But now appearing as the host of Netflix’s new Celebrity Bear Hunt, the presenter is back serving our nightly fix of outfit inspiration. Already we’ve seen outfits ranging from traditional jungle khaki two-pieces to floral mini dresses, but it’s her latest playsuit that had us quickly googling to see if we could add it to our own virtual baskets for spring/summer.
Her exact buy is ZIMMERMANN’s August linen halterneck playsuit, which was on sale for £248 but sadly went out of stock right after Holly wore it. However, we’ve found a near-perfect alternative for the item in Reiss’ Anjie Linen Collar Playsuit in Navy, £170.
The Reiss Anjie playsuit, currently in stock in sizes 4-18 while stock lasts, is all about effortless style—made from lightweight linen, the relaxed fit, V-neck and pleated waist give it a laid-back but polished feel. Bonus points for the fact that it’s machine washable, so no faff when it comes to keeping it clean.

The Zimmermann August playsuit gives a little more drama with its halterneck and open back. Also made from linen, it’s got a slightly more structured shape, and the removable buckle belt means you can cinch in the waist for a more tailored look. The collared neck and pleated waist add an extra bit of chic, but heads up—it’s dry clean only, so a bit more high-maintenance that Reiss lower price option.
Another look of Holly’s that’s proved to be a big hit with fans is her floral mini dress from episode two, which is the now-sold out £275 RIXO Hebe Floral-Print Chiffon Mini Dress (the Holly effect is proving to be very real!).
Fans were quick to praise the look on Holly’s Instagram, where she posted a photo of herself in the “galmourflage” mini dress. “You look fantastic in this outfit” wrote one, whilst another added: “Lovely dress Holly you look absolutely beautiful.”
“Absolutely love this outfit. I wonder if a nearly 63 year old could get away with wearing it @hollywilloughby asking for a friend” joked another.
If you were also keen to get your hands on this outfit for an upcoming holiday, New Look’s Black Floral Print Lace Trim Mini Tea Dress, £15, is an excellent alternative.
We’ll keep our eyes peeled for more from Holly as the series goes on!
