Maya Jama's Love Island outfits are summer style inspo, here's where all her looks are from
Love Island is officially back on our screens for another series, and alongside the usual drama drawing us in night after night, we'll be tuning in to see Maya Jama. Or more specifically, her outfits. Yep, when it comes to the ultimate summer style inspo, you can't beat the TV presenter's drool-worthy wardrobe as she returns yet again to host the reality show. Previous years have seen her don see-through designs, daring cut-out dresses and so much more. Or do we mean less...? You may not have a firepit dumping to attend, but if you – like us – want to recreate these looks on your summer holiday, keep reading for all the deets on exactly where Maya's latest Love Island outfits are from, plus how you can recreate the look for yourself. We'll be updating throughout this latest season where all of Maya's 'fits are from. Go big or go home seemed to be the message as Maya appeared on screen on three (!!) separate occasions, obvs wearing a different outfit each time. First up was this gorge vintage Versace ensemble consisting of a plunging scoop-neck pink printed swimsuit and coordinating scarf sarong, with a second scarf worn in her hair as a headband. A gold chain belt made up of starfish and shell motifs was slung low around her hips. The entire look was modelled on Claudia Schiffer who wore something incredibly similar to walk the Italian fashion house's 1991 runway show. Maya finished her debut outfit with a gold shell cuff and Chloé shell drop earrings. Next up, for her entrance into the villa, Maya opted for another vintage find. This time, a 2004 Roberto Cavalli black backed strappy midi dress decorated all over with a multicoloured floral print. And finally, for her return to the villa later that evening, Maya donned a black bodysuit with a see-through, ruched tulle overall that fell all the way to the floor. The naked dress featured intricate embroidery across the hips, depicting green vines with yellow flower buds. Maya accessorised the look with a statement bejewelled gold crucifix necklace. We've seen some *major* looks from Maya over the years, so have rounded up our favourites of all time. Hello to this stunning – and oh so see-through – Norma Kamali shirred gown that Maya layered over a black balconette bralette and coordianting high-leg thong. Maya kicked off the first spin-off series of Love Island: All Stars wearing this gorgeous Mixedgals Marcia maxi dress. Another see-through number, the white sheer fabric was adorned with 3D flowers to nail the corsage trend. To kick off series 10, Maya rocked up to the infamous villa wearing Cult Gaia's Accalia backless white crochet dress. Winter Love Island might not have the same buzz as the OG summertime show, but thankfully, Maya made sure to pull out all the stops with her wardrobe. Especially as it was her debut hosting, taking the reins from Laura Whitmore. She kicked off the show in this black halterneck maxi that had SO many cut-outs and negative space panels. Half dress, half bikini, the Monot dress was from Annie's Ibiza. Follow Alex on Instagram. Alexandria Dale is the Digital Fashion Writer at Cosmopolitan UK.

These are the shortest Love Island appearances ever, as contestant is axed before the show even starts
Love Island is about to celebrate its 10th anniversary and it appears 10 years in the show is still making history. In a first for the ITV2 show late last night (3 June) it was confirmed one of the Islanders from the initial lineup announced earlier that day had already been axed from the upcoming series. ITV confirmed Kyle Ashman would no longer be taking part in series 12 in a short statement: "For personal reasons, Kyle will not be entering the Love Island Villa as planned." It was revealed by The Sun Ashman had previously been arrested on suspicion of a machete attack. Back in February this year a man was attacked at a wake with a machete, after a number of individuals stormed the event. Ashman was one of two individuals questioned over the event, however the police confirmed to The Sun the matter had been investigated and the pair were released with no further action. Ashman has since issued a statement, telling the Daily Mail: "I fully cooperated with this police investigation and made it very clear that I had no involvement in this incident. I am not a violent person and any suggestion otherwise is a mischaracterisation." In the 10 years since the show began, Ashman has quite literally had the shortest appearance on the series. However, he's not alone as over the years there's been many micro visits to the Villa. From around twenty minutes to less than 48 hours, there's been some noticeable short stints, and we've rounded up the shortest. When Shannon entered the villa on day one of season seven back in 2021 everyone was convinced she was going to be the 'it' girl of the season. However, she made history by getting the earliest dumping of the show. It was the third day when now Love Island legend Chloe Burrows entered the Villa. On Chloe's first day she was told to pick a boy to couple up with. She chose Aaron who was with Shannon at the time. After Chloe picked Aaron, Shannon received a text saying she had been dumped from the Island. Savage. All the way back in season one, Love Island casts twins John and Tony. The pair entered the Villa early on Day 3, however just 72 hours later they were dumped from the Island after failing to make a connection. These two came, saw, dressed as firemen and left. Yep, back in series four in 2018, Kieran and Idris were late arrival bombshells so they didn't stand much of a chance. After failing to form any connections they were dumped together just three days after they arrived together. Ollie stared in the first series of Winter Love Island, but clearly didn't like the South African sun as he chose to quit the Villa just three days into his stay. He said he realised he still had feelings for his ex-girlfriend Laura, and it was clearly the right decision as the pair are now married. David arrived for the second Winter Love Island series in 2023, but didn't stay for long. He entered alongside Zara Lackenby-Brown on Day 3, but while Zara went onto stay for a few more weeks, David was dumped just two days into his stay after he failed to make a connection with any of the Islanders. Chuggs first appeared on Love Island back in 2021 in season seven. However, just as he arrived so two did new bombshell Rachel Finni who was tasked with picking between Chuggs and Brad. After she picked Brad, it meant Chuggs was dumped from the Island. Chuggs managed to stay slightly longer when he appeared on Love Island All Stars this year, where he appeared for a full week, but still didn't manage to make a connection. Back in series two James had one of the shortest stints on the series. He entered on day 18 and expressed his interest in Kady McDermott, who was not interested and two days later James was out. Season seven had quite it's fair share of short appearances, and the shortest of these goes to Georgia Townend. She arrived on Love Island on day 23 and tried to crack on with Hugo Hammond. However, Hugo wasn't really interested and so with no other connections forming, Georgia left the villa during a dumping on day 25. Ben and Poppy arrived towards the end of series one on day 32 and less than 24 hours later they were dumped from the Island. Ok so does anyone recognise this guy? He appeared in season two and arrived on day 30 and was then dumped a day later. Up until Kyle Ashman, Malia held the title for shortest Love Island appearance of all time. She arrived for season two and took Scott Thomas on a date. When they returned to the villa, Malia met Kady who Scott was getting to know. The pair got into an altercation after Malia believed Kady had split wine on her on purpose, the altercation got physical and Malia was removed from the Billa. Love Island begins on 9th June on ITV2 and ITVX
