Cheap Costumes: Will you be wearing this? Helen Flanagan poses with bizarre corset made out of a Manchester United jersey by her sister

She’s known for her eye catching outfits but a corset made out of a Manchester United jersey seems a step too far even for Helen Flanagan.
The former Coronation Street actress attended her sister Jane’s dress-making studio open day in Bolton today and the unusual item was just one of the many items on show.
Helen was happy to pose with the corset, although her own outfit of a cream and red T-shirt and jeans was slightly more sedate.

Fresh faced Helen wore minimal make-up and sported cork wedges and a matching red Prada bag for her family day out.
Her long brunette locks, which she once chopped off and dyed blonde, were tied up in a bun on top of her head.

Speaking about the raunchy footage, she has said in the past: 'I love Rosie's tarty outfits - the worse they are the better because they really help me get into character.
'The scene where Rosie stood in the street wearing just a corset and suspenders was fantastic. The corset was from Agent Provocateur and I love their stuff. I didn't feel self-conscious at all.'

However, today was all about Helen’s sister and the kind-hearted star was merely on hand to offer moral support.
She tweeted her enthusiasm about the day ahead earlier this morning and revealed her mother and grandmother had been busy baking for the day ahead.
