Cheryl Cole Xfactor Style – show 6 Matthew Williamson strapless dress

As seen on Cheryl Cole

Backstage at NY Fashion Week

This is the dress worn by Cheryl on the episode of the Xfactor which went to air on November 8th 2008. The dress is by Matthew Williamson and is from the Spring Summer 2009 collection which was shown at New York fashion week. The dress is a gorgeous salmon pink colour with embroidered pocket detailing and a sassy feminine skinny belt and is just exquisite.

Cheryl continues to show her love of Matthew Williamson with yet another of his designs with this girlie dress, finished off with hot pink skyscraper heel pumps.

See below how you can get a similar look from both designer pieces and the high street – happy shopping!

Matthew Williamson New York Spring summer 2009 Runway show – dress is shown about 1 min 30 into the video above.

Lotta Stensson Strapless Dress, Peach

This dress is a bargain, and would be flattering to most figures and not just those of us as teeny tiny as Cheryl. The colour is gorgeous and would flatter most skin tones, and the essential embroidery detailing is right there.

This is also an adaptable piece as you could wear it for daytime with leather leggings and a biker jacket too.

Top the look off with a chunky gold cuff bracelet and some seriously shiny patent boots for a look that is pure star style but at a fraction of the cost.
