With 2019 in full swing, so it's only right now to have a look back at some of the biggest fashion hits of the last year.
The year was full of plenty of exciting news from the style world - from Meghan Markle's latest wardrobe choices, to Holly Willoughby's collections with Marks & Spencer.
The industry also spawned a wave of sell-out items from plenty of our favourite retailers. And now, one of the most popular high-street stores, John Lewis & Partners, have revealed their top-selling item of the last 12 months.
It likely won't surprise you that the item in question is a midi dress - the style has exploded in popularity over the last few years.
