    The style queens had a fierce frock-off in matching Versace designs - but who gets YOUR vote?

    Cheryl Cole and January Jones went head-to-head in the style stakes when they stepped out in the same Versace dress - but who would YOU crown style queen?

    January Jones was first to debut the figure-hugging LBD, at the Central St. Martins Fashion Fund dinner in London back in November.

    As the face of Versace's new spring campaign, it came as little surprise to clock the Mad Men star in a frock from the Italian fashion house, which she teamed with classic black pumps, smoky eyes and an immaculate towering bun.

    Fast forward two months, and Cheryl Cole stepped out at the National Television Awards in the very same LBD - which features striking back-bearing strapped detailing, allowing her to show off her brand new tattoo.

    The X Factor judge added a pop of colour to her ensemble with cherry red Christian Louboutin heels and a scarlet pout, while glossy curls and statement earrings provided the finishing touches.
