Just lovely: Dannii Minogue dazzled in a ladylike red dress to the X Factor press conference in London today
Fans of X Factor have been just as transfixed by the unspoken battle taking place each week on the X Factor.
And for the most part, Dannii Minogue has reigned supreme in the style wars, trumping fellow judge Cheryl Cole week after week.
And the 39-year-old has done it again, dazzling in a ladylike red dress at today's X Factor press conference in London.
Rocker chic? Cheryl missed the mark in a quilted leather jacket and trousers
Dannii looked radiant as she posed for photographers with her finalist Matt Cardle at the Connaught Hotel.
The shocking red frock was teamed with a sleek bob and nude platform pumps.

Meanwhile Cheryl Cole, who - despite having two stylists - has lagged behind in the style stakes this series, missed the mark in a rocker-inspired ensemble.
The 27-year-old judge wore leather trousers and a quilted leather jacket over a shimmering jumper and Alexander Wang open-toe heels.

Cheryl was joined by 'her girls,' Rebecca Ferguson and Cher Lloyd at the press conference, after travelling to each other their home towns this week to film scenes for the show.
Rebecca, 24, was typically stylish in a black bejeweled dress and stockings, while 17-year-old Cher wore a pink hoodie, black jeans and grey heeled sheepskin boots.

The teenage 'mini Cheryl' will sing with the Black Eyed Peas frontman on this weekend's show. But Cher, who bookmakers have made the favourite to leave first, admitted she did not expect to win.

Cheryl, who is mentor to Cher and Rebecca, said: 'I think I've got two very, very special girls and it's not about me winning, it's about them winning.'
Simon also batted away controversy about this year's series. The ITV1 talent search has continued to attract millions of viewers but has been hit by claims of fixes and controversy over the use of auto-tuning technology.

Simon said: 'We welcome any investigation by Ofcom. I don't want this to be the goody-goody show and pretend we are nice people because we are not. We work in the music business.'
The act with the fewest public votes will be kicked off on Saturday night, leaving three finalists to perform on Sunday when the winner is announced.
