‘Why is she dressed like a death eater?’ Married At First Sight’s Mel Schilling gets ribbed by viewers over her plunging frock with shoulder pads made out of ‘two loofahs’

Married At First Sight had plenty of drama at the reunion on Sunday. 

And it appears viewers also had beef with expert Mel Schillings’ plunging black frock which featured statement ruffles on the shoulders.

‘Expert Mel is channelling the 1980’s shoulder pads vibe with a Jurassic Park spin on them,’ one fan wrote. 

‘Why is she dressed like a death eater?’ Married At First Sight star Mel Schilling, 49, got playfully ribbed by viewers over her plunging, big-sleeved frock on Sunday night

‘I haven’t been able to hear a thing tonight over Mel’s sleeves,’ wrote another. 

One fan noticed a distinct resemblance to the terrorist group of wizards and witches, led by the dark wizard Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter Franchise.  

‘Mel Shilling is dressed as a death eater. Why?’ they wrote.

Another viewer preferred to see the practical side of her outfit.

‘Oh, good, Jason [Engler] can clean his act up with the two loofas on Mel’s shoulders,’ they joked. 

Mel certainly looked worlds away from the usual corporate glam she adheres to on the hit reality show. 

The bombshell expert wore her blonde tresses slicked back on the night, while opting for a glossy makeup look for the show.

She finished the glamazon look with drop down earrings along with a pair of black high-heel shoes. 

It comes amid talk Mel could soon quit the program after five years appearing on the juggernaut series. 

According to New Idea magazine last month, Mel has landed a role on a ‘revamped’ version of the show in the UK.
