The Best Dressed Women of 2014

As 2014 nears its end, we’ve taken a look back at some of the year’s best-dressed women.

Which was obviously a really painful experience. *Sigh*.

And this year, it was a mix of perpetual red carpet favourites (Cate Blanchett, Blake Lively), emerging style stars (Lupita Nyong’o, Kate Middleton), and street-style sweet hearts (Claudia Adaszewska, Miroslava Duma) who captured and inspired our eyes the most.

So without further ado, here are our picks for the 10 best-dressed women of 2014. 

1. Cate Blanchett
From the red carpet to the airport, actress Cate Blanchett managed to look glamorous on every occasion in 2014.

2. Sophia Amoruso
Founder of online store Nasty Gal, Sophia Amoruso is an obvious choice for one of the most fashionable women in the world, but all eyes were especially on her this year after she released her New York Times Best Seller book, #GirlBoss.

3. Olivia Palermo
With her unique choice of wedding attire and impeccable street style this year, the American socialite Olivia Palermo had to make our list.

4. Karlie Kloss
With supermodel legs like those how can you not look great in everything you wear?

5. Claudia Adaszewska
Designer and blogger Claudia Adaszewska from Warsaw, Poland won Vanity Fair’s User’s Choice International Best-Dressed List in June and clearly won our fashion hearts as one of the best-dressed women of 2014.

6. Kate Middleton
The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton victoriously combines designer and high street fashion to make the perfect look for a modern-day woman.

7. Miroslava Duma 
Miroslava Duma dominates street-style blogs and runs her own fashion news site, Buro 24/7. Though she’s under 5’3″, she can pull off prints, textures, and various silhouettes.

 

8. Taylor Swift 
When it comes to getting dressed, singer Taylor Swift just wants to impress the ladies. Taylor’s latest album has sold more than two million copies, she recently performed at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion show, and she even landed a glossy British Vogue cover this year. On top of her 2014 accomplishments, she’s also been successfully experimenting with her fashion look, too. 

9. Lupita Nyong’O
Lupita Nyong’O has been on the scene for just over a year, but the Oscar winner has already had more fashion hits than some stars have in their whole career. From bright, bold colours to sundry silhouettes, Lupita conquers every red carpet look.

10. Blake Lively
Actress Blake Lively debuted her baby bump on the red carpet this year and since then, she’s mastered maternity dressing with everything from statement coats and easy fall boots, to glamorous gowns.
