Gwyneth Paltrow tops Best Dressed list

Gwyneth Paltrow has topped a new magazine poll to find the World's Best Dressed Woman.

The actress, who turns 40 later this month (Sep12), has been handed the early birthday present from editors at People magazine.

She saw off competition from fellow actress Diane Kruger, who landed the Best High Fashion Style honor, and British royal Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, who picked up the Best Classic Style accolade.

Others featured in the top style list include Emma Stone (Best Red Carpet Style), Rihanna (Best Risk-Taking Style), Jennifer Lawrence (Best Under 25 Style) and supermodel Miranda Kerr (Best Street Style).

Andrew Garfield, Brad Pitt, Robert Pattinson, Jay-Z, brothers Chris and Liam Hemsworth and Colin Firth were named among People's Best Dressed Men.
