Kate Winslet in Herve Leger

Kate Winslet in Herve Leger

This year Herve Leger's bandage dress has undoubtedly being the dress of the year and to celebrate its success in 2008 we bring you the best high street versions of it available.

The bodycon beauty, which takes three days to make, is made of elasticated bands and sucks you in, in all the right places.

It's no surprise then that celebrities across the world have been loving it this year with everyone from Hayden Panettiere to Rachel Bilson to Cheryl Cole to Kate Winslet stepping out in the wonder frock.

At £1,358 it's a little out of our price range but fortunately we've found some just as good high street versions to bring you a little Christmas cheer.

Go for a 60s style monochrome colour in Miss Selfridge's black and white stripy number, £20.

If you want something more colourful then try Lipsy's £63.61 dress which comes in red, bright purple, dark purple and black.

Left to Right: Miss Selfridge dress, £20; Lipsy dress, £63.61; Jane Norman dress, £30.

Jane Norman's version comes in red and black, purple and black or black and white and is just £30. We love the more obvious look of the panels, it gives it a real designer feel.

If you haven't got your New Years Eve outfit yet hurry to the shops and pick up one of these as they're bound to sell out soon.
