Dita Von Teese and Penelope Cruz played a game of style snap in Alexander McQueen – but which starlet had the winning look?

It's no secret that celebs love Alexander McQueen's fashion forward designs, but when Dita Von Teese and Penelope Cruz both fell in love with the same dress, we couldn't decide: who wore it best?

Penelope Cruz was the first to step out in this ladylike houndstooth frock back in October, when she wore it to a New York press conference, promoting her latest film, Broken Embraces.

The Spanish senorita teamed the form-fitting frock with natural, tumbling tresses, towering courts and, rather bizarrely, a pair of sunglasses tucked into the top.

Fast forward a few weeks, and Dita Von Teese decided to follow in Miss Cruz's fashionable footsteps - wearing the same dress to a book signing in London.

The burlesque beauty added a black brooch to the collar of the dress, and styled it up with t-bar shoes, super- groomed hair and matching black nails.
