I am so glad that Mathilde has topped the list! She is always immaculately groomed - she is stylish - never trying to call undue attention to herself. She might go a little bit out on the edge with a whimsical hat - but that is it. Her fashion is timeless.
But I am shocked that Letizia was rated second - the photo shown is over 4 years old taken at the Fred/Mary wedding. That was the very last time that Letizia showed any real fashion flair, and to me, it has been downhill ever since. Her second place is a joke.

Well, on the Vanity Fair list P Mathilde was 9th out of 37 with Ivanka Trump and Michelle Obama leading the parade. On the second list.........Any results that have Amy Winehouse, Bjork and Oprah as "best dressed" I would not want to be included in. Again, I wonder who voted......

The second list is voted for by the Vanity Fair readers, there's a link in the Vanity Fair list.

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..

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.

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.

Letizia is on the official list of Vanity Fair and the final results will be in September.
