But the slip, which occurred as she got in her car to go home, will cause her eternal embarrassment.

A-listers from Kate Winslet and Victoria Beckham to D-list reality stars Heidi Montag and Danielle Bux have been sporting different styles and colours of the dress over the last two years.

Over two years after Lindsay Lohan helped kick off the new trend for Herve Leger bandage dresses, J.Lo has finally squeezed her curves into the figure-hugging creation.

After becoming a fashion icon herself in the late Nineties, Jennifer launched her own fashion range J.Lo By Jennifer Lopez in 2003, before shutting it down four yeas later.
