I wondered since I have been reading Vanity Fair front to back once a month for 5 years and never saw the poll. Was this conducted on line?

The poll is still running. If you click on the photos on the second list you can rate them from 1-10.

Here is an interesting article from the guradian.co.uk


One of Vanity Fair's 'best-dressed' is wearing a jacket that looks like a thrown-up Indian takeaway

...this week Vanity Fair unveils its 69th annual International Best-Dressed list. Isn't giving gongs to rich people for having expensive clothes the same as applauding a puddle for being wet? And how does Vanity Fair find them? Do they pick up Boujis and turn it upside down on the South Kensington pavement? I read the list while holding..

No she isn't. She is #9 on the list which is still a fine place to be.

I am also surprised that Lady Gabriella is not on the list as her clothes just keep getting better and better. She is bound to make it eventually.

It would be great to see Lady Gabriella Windsor mentioned in this list because she is the best dressed person related to the British Royal family.

Princess Letizia is Among Vanity Fair’s Best-Dressed

Well it is just your opinion, it is impossible that all people think the same way but many people in Spain and abroad think that Letizia is a very elegant woman, and that is the reality.

I would not put too much stock in this year's list. I believe it was skewed somehow and the faces that showed up there well..........how can we say it delicately?????????? Most did not deserve to be spoken about in relation to fashion, let alone appearing in a "best dressed" list!

As far as I have understood, Crown Princess Letizia is not mentioned in the official list.

Well, I could not find her in this list. Is there a longer version of the list?

It is absolutely absurd to try to convince you of something.
Letizia is on the official list of Vanity Fair and the final results will be in September.

It's two different lists - one done by Vanity Fair and another one done by readers of Vanity Fair. The best dressed woman by Vanity Fair is Ivanka Trump with best dressed royal CP Mathilde rank 9 (Kate Middleton is no royal yet). The readers of Vanity Fair (who can vote how often they want by the way) think that CP Letizia is best dressed but the fact that her picture is 4 1/2 years old and shows her in the only dress that ever looked spectaclar on her says it all.

I'm quite glad that Letizia was on the list. I think she deserved it although some of her clothes are off. Nevertheless, if you will look at her pictures recently her outfits are elegant and very nice.
