Lisa Faulkner was criticised for her choice of outfit on This Morning on Friday.
The presenter was making her debut, alongside Ben Shephard, but it didn’t exactly go smoothly.

A number of viewers tweeted about how they thought her dress – a white dress with a red floral effect – looked like a “gunshot wound.”
Many felt it was a poor decision considering that the onscreen duo were discussing the recent Tunisia terror attacks.
Jesus, This Morning. Given the subject matter maybe you should style Lisa Faulkner differently. pic.twitter.com/HSo3pKB1yS — Liam Murphy (@liamwaterloo) July 10, 2015

This Morning wardrobe asst: “What about this gunshot wound dress from an episode of Taggart?” Lisa Faulkner: “OK.” pic.twitter.com/NEO4ny0bsj — Andy (@andytoots) July 10, 2015
Lisa later took to Twitter to explain that her dress had poppies on it.
