No (F)Rocky Horror here! Roxanne Pallett ticks all the right boxes in a figure-hugging peplum dress

Roxanne Pallett has enjoyed a good run in the Rocky Horror Show theatre tour, but there was nothing horrifying about her outfit on Thursday.

The actress looked marvelous as she left the Manchester Opera House following her performance on stage.

The 31-year-old was dressed up to the nines as she sauntered down the street in a figure hugging dress.

Roxanne wore a lovely red peplum dress that featured some lace detailing as she headed off into the night after another evening as Janet Weiss.

The former Emmerdale star teamed the frock with a pair of nude colour platform heels and her hair pulled back over her shoulders with a cute fringe.

Her time in the show is nearing its end and she will have her last performance on 11 May in Surrey at the Richmond Theatre.

However, Roxanne is clearly still pleasing fans of the musical as she was carrying a bouquet of flowers that she had been given.

The former Dancing On Ice contestant appeared to be in great shape after dropping several pounds through diet and exercise.

Pallett managed to shed over a stone to transform herself into suspender-wearing leading lady Janet Weiss for The Rocky Horror Show.
She overhauled her diet, switching to healthy alternatives of her favourite foods and rehearsing up to eight hours a day to lose an impressive 15 pounds.

Ultimately, 5ft 1in Roxanne dropped from 8st in October to 7st in January this year.

She told OK magazine: 'If you put on a few pounds and you’re not doing a job in the public eye, it’s okay because when you’re in the office you can hide under clothes or if you’re at home you can hide behind your onesie.

'So during the rehearsal period for Rocky Horror, I realised I needed to feel confident with my body to play that role with conviction because the audience can see if you’re not comfortable.
'When you're on television, or film, or on stage, you can't hide – you have to be in the costume of that character and most of the time it’s sexy or revealing. You have to be confident.'

Laid-back vibe: On Friday morning, Roxanne ditched her glamorous dress in favour of a comfortable onesie as she arrived for her performance
