Dancing with the Stars is back for its 33rd season, and host Julianne Hough stole the show in a gorgeous little black skirt with a very unusual detail.
Looking fresh and flirty, Julianne, 36, rocked a sheer black bodysuit which featured a high neckline and short sleeves, before adding an oversized bubble skirt by Alaia made of feathers. She paired the look with black stilettos, and she wore new short blonde bob in a sleek style.
She walked on to the stage with co-host Alfonso Ribeiro, and the pair introduced their 12 celebrity contestants which includes Olympian Ilona Moher and actress Tori Spelling.
The opening number saw the professionals dancer perform an incredibly high-octane number to dance remix of Celine Dion’s “I’m Alive”.
The Bachelor’s Joey Grazedei was the first performer of the night, and the contestants were asked to pick a song that they felt was their “personal anthem” to perform their first dance of the evening.
Joey’s professional partner Jenna Jameson picked a cha-cha to Tyler Hubbard’s “Dancing in the Country”.

“It’s so exciting and I just can’t wait… my mind is completely open, and I’m ready to be dazzled.”
