She has faced some of the most turbulent times of her public life in recent weeks.
But Nigella Lawson, 53, is still a fashion icon to many, it is revealed today.
The striking figure-hugging dress she wore to promote her US TV show The Taste has completely sold out, confirmed British fashion house Diva Catwalk.

Those planning to buy the £85 cobalt blue Midhurst dress will now have to wait until January 15, when the firm re-stocks, as every size has now been snapped up.
'Nigella knows the kind of fabrics that we have and she knows what she likes,' a Diva spokesperson tells MailOnline.
'Most recently she's worn the Midhurst style and the New Chevy style. She's worn the swing Chevy style in the past as well as many of our other designs.



Her stylist came in and bought the dress, took it back for Nigella to have a fitting and then brought it back and asked us to shorten the sleeves.
'We altered the sleeves of the Midhurst dress especially forNigella,' say Diva Catwalk
'We produce ready-to-wear items and have designers in house. We tend not to alter a lot of styles due to the volume of work but we altered the sleeves of the Midhurt dress especially for her.'
The sexy frock is just the latest in a string of ensembles Nigella has helped shift.
This time last year the curvy TV chef caused a stir after wearing a £175 red stretch-dress dubbed Billion Dollar Babe from British store Deadly Is The Female.
It sold out within hours as fashionistas flooded to the boutique in Frome, Somerset.
