No fewer than twelve dresses have been designed for the three hosts of the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest. Today we are proud to present their stage outfits for the First Semi-Final. Come and have a look!

Twelve dresses have been designed for 2015 Eurovision Song Contest hosts Mirjam Weichselbraun, Alice Tumler and Arabella Kiesbauer by ORF fashion expert Ariane Rhomberg - one for each respective Semi-Final, and two for the Final.

Following the successful cooperation of ORT and ART for ART on the golden stage costume of Conchita Wurst, the designs have been done again in the ateliers of ART for ART. 300 metres of fabric have been processed by the tailors, more than 1 kilometre of seams, 250.000 stitches, 1.5 kilometres of leather fringes were cut, and 10.000 Swarovski stones have been applied.

The First Semi-Final Outfits

Arabella Kiesbauer will wear a feminine and elegant evening dress in aloe green with artful draperies. Alice Tumler will present the show in a slim-fit short dress made of mint-colored silk, while Mirjam Weichselbraun will go on stage in a low-cut body-enhacing tuxedo in dark British green. She wears a bracelet out of white gold, created at studio Bucherer in Vienna with Paraiba turmaline and diamond-jeweled stars.
