The International Best-Dressed Poll

09/07/13 | Alexander McQueen, Balenciaga, Best Dressed, celebrity, Christian Louboutin, Fashion and Style, Giuseppe Zanotti, Lavin, Stella McCartney

I will stand by my promise and not going post any more about Mercedes Benz Fashion Week here in New York City until I have the opportunity to attend this weekend, but I can not seem to escape fashion.  Today I bring you my favorite’s from Vanity Fair’s annual The International Best-Dressed Poll.  My list include three princesses, a singer, an actress, a model, and a dancer ranging from the ages of 31 to 82:

Burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese 
in Ulyana Sergeenko and Giuseppe Zanotti 
Socialite and philanthropist Dasha Zhukova 
in Balenciaga, Stella McCartney, and Lavin 

 Model Carmen Dell’Orefice glowing at 82 years-old

 Her Royal Highness Princess Letizia of Asturias in Hugo Boss 

Singer, songwriter, and actress Beyoncé in Elie Saab 
Her Royal Highness Princess Madeline of Sweden 
 Actress Kerry Washington in Wes Gordon and Christian Louboutin 
Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge,
 Kate Middleton, in Alexander McQueen
And a shout out to the boys, these six men do look very dapper in a suits:

Charlie Siem / Alexander Gilkes / Darren Henault 
Henrik Lunqvist / Otis Ferry / Justin Timberlake 
You can browse through the full list and the 97 images Vanity Fair has compiled to depict the winners of their annual International Best-Dressed Poll.  I would love to know which individuals you would have highlighted or whose style you admire!

    I love Kate Middleton’s style too, just because it’s usually down to earth. It seems Kerry Washington has become the hottest thing in fashion lately… I see her looks featured everywhere!
