Inside Melissa Leong’s $25,000 MasterChef wardrobe

Melissa Leong is known for being one of the most well-styled judges on MasterChef.

And on Friday, the 39-year-old food critic gave fans a glimpse of her incredible shoe closet while filming the new season of the Channel Ten cooking show.

The judge, who wore $25,000 worth of showstopping outfits on last year’s series, shared a selfie to Instagram while posing in front of her fancy footwear on set.

Sneakers, strappy heels, stilettos and stylish flats are lined up neatly on the shelves behind Melissa.

‘Can you really have too many pairs of shoes?’ she captioned the picture.

Last year, Melissa wore $25,000 worth of incredible outfits and accessories, expertly mixing high-end and high street styles.

For the first two weeks of the show, the popular judge wore dresses and designs, all by British label Ted Baker.

For the third week of the show, Melissa wore dresses by popular Australian designer Alice McCall.

She went on to wear frocks from Sydney designer Gary Bigeni for week four and for the fifth week of MasterChef, Melissa was dressed in KITX.

The stylish judge finished off the season in creations by online store Order of Style.

Melissa’s looks frequently brought a vintage flair, often donning red, white and black frocks with retro cuts and polka dot prints.

She previously told 10Play that she loved fans were loving her style and understood she was a multi-faceted person.

‘I am flattered that so many people have resonated with my style and that beauty and fashion standards in the media continue to grow in their inclusivity and reflection of the real world,’ Melissa said.

‘To be considered part of the fashion zeitgeist is fun, but it will never steal my focus from my qualifications as a food writer, presenter and communicator.’
